I am looking for any info that people can provide me on the CA18DET...stock boost pressures...maximum safe boost on stock internals...internal specs, ease of tuning, etc...any more info than what I have(I believe the stock hp is 175 flywheel...that's about all I know)
I searched...the only thing I came up with searching for CA18DET was a bunch of threads where people suggested it as an alternate to the SR20DET...didn't get any answers to any of those questions. maybe I should generalize the search...or maybe you should be less of an ass...but I did search...and didn't find anything I was looking for...so I posted.
if you know the info...why not help a fellow nissan person out man...that is the whole point of forums I thought...borrowing other peoples knowledge on things that you might not know...
we had hundreds of ppl like you come by.. and at first, we were nice and gave them info. but now, we've been here a while and basically, we're sick of ppl like you don't take this personally, we tell everybody to search, to read the stickies, and call them noobs
meh...fucked if I care...I have been on this board for a while...but I don't post much...I drove an 03 spec V up until last week but really couldn't find much useful information on here about em...so I just tried to keep up on some of the stuff on here...now I am looking at importing a RHD S13 silvia from japan that is powered by a CA18DET...and was just trying to find some more info before I got into something that I had no idea on the inner workings of...
yup...government legislation states that any car over 15 years old to the build month can be legally imported without any federalization...so...wouldn't you want to get down on that?
i know that law and i dont care about it. that is for the people that are too lazy to build their own car. if you were talking an R32 GT-R, then i would help you.
the other car I am looking at right now is an RB20DET powered skyline GTS-T type M...it becomes available in april...then sometime late in the year I am hoping to have enough saved up to look into a GT-R
CA18DET info: iron block, internals have been known to hold close to 500whp, then the pistons begin to melt down. stock turbo is a T25 that isnt too great. good upgrade would be a S15 T28 BB turbo. has a timing belt rather than chain. stock rev limiter is set to 7700, but valve float doesnt hit til around 8700 so you could safely run your stock engine to 8500rpm, altho i dont recommend it. front clip prices have shot up because of popularity now. clips run around 1800 plus shipping these days, and you can get motorsets for around 14-1500.
guys... can we NOT be dicks... he's got a point... yes he searched. he might have not searched thoroughly enough, but the point of a forum is to help people, not flame everyone that comes in.
