ive done the chain kit on one of those not easy they had also tries to put the mil out with the alternator and caused problems if you have to rig it maybe oil pressure switch.

the word on the street is the chain will snap and destroy the engine, not able to 100% confirm this rumor.

Besides if you change the chain it will 'bog down' now has varable valve timing, Mini's would do that, go like a rocket when chain worn!

you can do it with the engine in place, you can buy the kits on ebay a lot cheaper than nissan there are no gaskets just glue. the sump is an arse to get off be careful with it.

sorry to hear about your misfortune but i feel it to be wrong you want to cheat someone in to thinking their buying a good motor, micra's are usually the choice for young families and older people please consider your choices.

and eye for a eye and the the whole world goes blind
