I've seen someone on the net with a CA18DET in his S14. How much understeer would that swap make? I mean, it probably won't be like the MR-2's since it's FR, so to which car can I compare that understeer?

The car handled just fine, no noticible differences when I pulled the CA and dropped in an SR.

R = HatchbackP = SR20DE(T)

The S14 is just an S14

Also, the CA is a lighter engine. If anything it would imply oversteer because of that fact.

I see.... Thanks. I thought it was an RPS too cuz I looked it up on google and they had it for S14's. So where did you see the meanings for R and P? I couldn't find it.

I'm gona go edit the original post so that I won't confuse anyone.
