Me too mate, couldn't understand why you "left" an engine or drop it instead. LOL. I certainly can't hold one for long so I guess I'd drop it.

It doesn't matter, we can't let our standards down.

What I thought too. apparently the mudguard gets in the way pulling it out to the left. but I hear a gas-axe can help with that.

OP I'd say LIFT. BUT it is a tight fit and im pretty sure you need to remove a bunch of other stuff first. I'm sorry I can't remember the specifics

1997 Cefiro is a front wheel drive v6, if they are anything like camry's then there's almost no spare room, I learnt the hard way to drop the engine and transaxle out together and then do what I had to do.

front wheel drive it is easier to drop the whole nine yards including the struts and front hubs onto the floor with a trolley jack under it.
then use the engine crane to lift the much lighter car chassi up and roll the drive train out on the jack.
as for rear wheel drive nissan (esp RB) remove the radiator, viscous fan aswell as the associated eqipment, then as you lift it out let the gearbox end drop down so the engine starts lifting vertical.
It is a pain to undo/do up the top two gearbox/bell housing bolts in the engine bay.
