Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Infobox automobile engine

The GA engine is a 1.3 to 1.6 L inline-four piston engine from Nissan. It has a cast-iron block and an aluminum head. There are SOHC and DOHC versions, 8, 12, and 16 valve versions, carbureted, single-point, and multi-point injected versions, and versions with variable valve timing (GA16DE). The GA was produced from August 1987 through 2013. Since 1998, it was only available from Mexico in the B13.

In the code of the engine, the first two initials indicate engine class, the two numbers indicate engine displacement (in decilitres), the last two initials indicate cylinder-head style and induction type (D=DOHC, S=carburetor, E=injection). In the case of a single-initial suffix, the initial indicates induction type.

GA15DS

The GA15DS is a Script error: No such module "convert". 16V DOHC engine with a carburetor. It produces Script error: No such module "convert". at 6000 rpm and Script error: No such module "convert". at 3600 rpm.

Applications:

GA15E

The GA15E is a Script error: No such module "convert". multi point fuel injected SOHC engine. It produces Script error: No such module "convert". at 6000 rpm and Script error: No such module "convert". at 4400 rpm. It was used in the Nissan Pulsar, including such models as the 1988 X1-E Milano (JDM).

GA15DE

The GA15DE is a Script error: No such module "convert". engine with DOHC 16-valves (4 per cylinder) and electronic multi-point fuel injection. It was introduced in December 1993 and uses Nissan's ECCS engine control system admission. In Japanese market passenger car specification it produces Script error: No such module "convert". at 6000 rpm and Script error: No such module "convert". at 4000 rpm. Commercial vehicle-spec engines (AD Van) produce Script error: No such module "convert". at 6000 rpm and Script error: No such module "convert". at 4000 rpm.

Applications:

GA16

GA16S

The GA16S is a Script error: No such module "convert". SOHC engine with a bore and stroke of Script error: No such module "convert".. The GA16S has twelve valves, solid valve rockers, and is fitted with a carburetor. It produces Script error: No such module "convert". (without a catalyst). For some markets, such as South Africa, there was also an eight-valve version which produces Script error: No such module "convert". at 5500 rpm.[2] In the New Zealand market N13 Sentra, it produces Script error: No such module "convert". at 6000 rpm and Script error: No such module "convert". at 3200 rpm, with a compression ratio of 9.4:1.

GA16DS

The GA16DS is a Script error: No such module "convert". carbureted only engine with a 16-valve DOHC head. Models equipped with a catalyst use the electronically controlled carburetor. It produces between Script error: No such module "convert". and Script error: No such module "convert".. Without catalyst produces Script error: No such module "convert"..

Applications

This engine was also fitted to the Nissan Sunny B13 from Japan, called the EX Saloon.

GA16i

The GA16i is a Template:Cvt throttle-body fuel-injected engine produced from August 1987 through June 1990, which produces Template:Cvt. It is a single-cam, 12-valve design, with manually adjustable rocker arms. 1989 and 1990 North-American market Sentras (and European N13 Sunnys) received the hydraulic-rocker version which produces Template:Cvt and Template:Cvt of torque.

Applications:

GA16E

The GA16E is a Script error: No such module "convert". multi-point fuel injected SOHC engine. It produces Script error: No such module "convert"..

Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote".

The GA16DE is a Script error: No such module "convert". engine produced from November 1990 through 1999. All GA16DEs have 16 valves and a DOHC head. There are three versions: the North-American first-generation (1991–1994) NVCS (VTC), which produces Script error: No such module "convert". at 6000 rpm and Script error: No such module "convert". at 4000 rpm, the North-American second-generation (1995-1999) NVCS (VTC), which produces Script error: No such module "convert". at 6000 rpm and Script error: No such module "convert". at 4000 rpm, and a European non-NVCS (VTC) version which makes Template:Cvt.

The two variants of the North American NVCS engine are distinguished as such: in addition to differences in the intake manifolds and (resultantly) the heads, earlier motors used pistons with two compression rings and a single oil ring and put out five less horsepower, while later GA16DEs have a single compression ring and a single oil ring. Some engines have siamesed exhaust manifolds, while others keep the exhausts separated until the catalytic converter.

The GA16DE shares its block and crankshaft with the GA16i; however, their timing chain covers, connecting rods and pistons are different. Despite this, it is possible to interchange connecting-rod/piston assemblies between the GA16i and GA16DE with no damage to the valve-train.

Earlier ECUs contained the fuel & ignition maps on a discrete ROM microcontroller, making retuning relatively easy. Later ECUs integrated the maps onto a larger, more integrated microcontroller's firmware, making retuning require the use of a daughterboard.

Applications:

GA16DNE

The GA16DNE is a Mexican-specification Script error: No such module "convert". engine, which produces Script error: No such module "convert".. The main differences between the DE and DNE are no NVCS (VTC) and no ECCS plenum. The DNE has a vertical throttle body with an MAF inside; the air filter is diagonally oriented in its air filter housing. Since 2003, the DNE comes with a new ECU and 3 oxygen sensors.

The "N" in its nomenclature stands for "New EGI" (emission system), since this engine does not have an EGR system like the GA16DE. Other Nissan engines with the "N" nomenclature are natural gas powered.
