I know that the 95 and 97 are. I would assume the 98 is as well.

fingers crossed.

Can you swap a non turbo z31 for a VG30DETT?
The short answer is yes. Its even been done a few times. Money and time are a huge factor though. You would be better of getting a motor from a 96 pathfinder(VG33E) which bolts in. Slapping a turbo on it and calling it a day.
Where is the knock sensor located on a 1998-2000 Nissan frontier engine?
If you are asking for the Nissan VG33E, 3.3L, V6 engine (used in Frontier, Xterra, Pathfinder, Infiniti, Quest, and 99-02 Mercury Villager) then the knock sensor is located on top of the engine block. It sits on top toward the rear of the engine block , roughly 2/3 from the front of engine, between the #3 and #5 intake openings (right side or passenger side cylinder head). The only way to access it is by removing the intake collector (big Nissan name on top) and intake manifold. You will need at least 3 gaskets from Nissan (roughly $30); one to seal the intake collector with the intake manifold and two for each of the cylinder head set of intakes (#1, #3, & #5 on the right, and #2, #4, & #6 on the left). Do not use aftermarket ones. Nissan use plenum gaskets (made of metal) and aftermarket ones are pressed paper. Cost of factory Nissan gaskets is about the same as the aftermarket ones. Do it right the first time as the whole job takes about a day, including clearing the OBD code (P0301, I think). I have pictures available but just can't add it here.

What is the problem in the VG33E Nissan engine when it stops it self few seconds after started?
I just looked at an xterra the other night with this issue at a dealership. the mechanic on hand keep'ed pointing to fuel issues. However, in situations with this issue i have always found it to be an irregular reading of the MAF sensor. I would start diagnosing this issue by checking all the vacuum lines after the MAF Sensor. More than likely you have a vacuum leak down stream from the MAF. If it isn't a vacuum leak and you are looking at an Xterra. Check to see if its on the recall list for fuel pump grounding harness. There was a recall placed on this item for xterras between 2001-2003. It apparently would corrode causing the fuel pump to stop working properly. Good Luck!
Where are the Spark plug for 2001 Nissan Xterra?
Just trace the spark plug wires from the distributor and you'll find each one... on the KA24DE's they should be relatively easy to find and change. On the VG33E, plugs one to five are relatively easy -- though mostly obscured under the intake manifold. Number six, though, will take some creativity. Its in the back, seems to be angled towards the firewall. A wobble extension and a universal should cure the problem. Good luck!

Nissan first offered the Frontier with a 4-cylinder engine, the KA24DE, but added the V6 engine, the VG33E in 1999. Elsewhere, the Frontier was also known as the Nissan NavaraThat changed, with the introduction of the 2000 Frontier Crew Cab. The Crew Cab was the first compact pickup to offer a 4-door body-style in North America. Until that point, crew cabs were heavy duty versions of full-size trucks and were mainly used as commercial vehicles, although four-door compact pickups existed in Asia and Europe for decades.For 2001, Nissan facelifted the Frontier, introducing bolder styling in an effort to make it more appealing to younger buyers in its second generation. The Frontier was completely redone after the 2004 model year, which later resulted in the suspension of the regular cab model, indefinitely.D22 (1997-2000 model year) Frontier1997-2000 Nissan Frontier regular cab Built in Japan from 1997 to 2000.

Also in 2000 a special edition was first offered called the Desert Runner. It had a king cab base but on the 4X4 frame which gave it a boost in ride height, bigger tires and a 4-speed 2WD drivetrain. In 2001 the Desert Runner got a new look and a supercharged version of the V6 engine.
