Subaru-Nissan part sharing?

I "think" I remember in the 60's putting a Chevy 283 with many Corvette goodys in a Fiat mini mini that originally had a 600cc 2 banger.

Nissan used to own 5% of Subaru, hence the parts sharing. Subaru also assembled some Nissan models in the early '80s. GM bought Nissan's 5% share as part of their 20% purchase of Subaru. So there will be more GM parts on future Subaru models.

It's not likely a list is available to any of us. It's a learn as you go process.
