Default 2007 Epica

Hi there, I was wondering if anybody out there may be able to help me out. I have a 2007 Chevrolet Epica that I bought for my place in The Bahamas. It has a 2.0 liter inline 6 engine. The motor needs to be replaced but I can not seem to find any motors on this side if the world. My research tells me that it is a that it is a 2.0 L XK I6 engine. Does anybody know of a vehicle in the USA that would have used this motor? Or alternatively does anybody know if the 2.5L XK I6 will bolt up in it's place? Thanks for any help possible.

the optra may use the same engine. I'm thinking the 2.5 will bolt up as their is only one std and one auto trans. I haven't had one out to verify however. the 2.5 will need a different ecm and possibly different mounts.

Thanks tech 2. I am thinking that the 2.5 will bolt right up as well. I have changed many Altima 2.5's (QR25) to the Nissan 2.0 (QR20)found in different vehicles like the Nissan XTrail etc....mounts were the same and even the 2.5 ECU worked as it's able to recognize the 2.0L engine. Any other thoughts?
