Nissan FJ engine

The Nissan FJ is a series of straight-four, four-valve, double overhead camshaft engines of 2.0 or 2.4 litres that Nissan produced in the 1980s. They were among the first mass-produced Japanese engines with more than two valves per cylinder and with electronic fuel injection. The 2.4 L FJ24 was a rally engine for the Nissan 240RS, built as a Group B homologation engine, while the 2.0 L was used in general production models such as the DR30 Skyline RS. The FJ has an aluminium head, chain driven cams and an iron block, and it was discontinued in the mid 1980s because the cast iron block made it too costly. Some regard it as the forefather of the CA engine.
