This question has been asked by the group before, but I don't recall if it was answered: ?Is the 2.5L 5-cylinder engine an "interference engine", that is, an engine where the the pistons will hit the valves, and ruin the engine, should the timing belt break?
I saw the Tappet Brothers use that term in their newspaper column today and state that most Nissan and Honda engines are that way, but they didn't offer any additional info except to check with the service department for your particular brand.
