Nissan Z22E specs: 2.2L (134 ci) 4-cylinder, 87 x 92 mm (3.4252 x 3.6220 in) bore and stroke. Built 1983. Used in the Nissan 200SX.

The Nissan Z22E is undersquare — the 3.622" stroke exceeds the 3.4252" bore by 5.4% — a layout that trades peak RPM for leverage and torque low in the range. The 3.622" stroke puts mean piston speed at 4,000 ft/min around 6,650 RPM, which is where a production bottom end is generally considered at its limit. Each of the 4 cylinders displaces 33.5 ci (549 cc).

It is one of 2 engines in the Nissan 134ci family, all of them 134 ci — the differences between them are in compression, heads and rating, not displacement.
