Can anyone tell me what parts are needed and what it takes to put a CA18DE into a B12 sentra. Ive been looking for as much swap information as possible (such as about the CA engines, different models of B12 Sentras and what difference that would make, and most importantly a parts list). Not a lot of posting on this swap, nor articles, or anything else for that matter.
is the CA18DE (N/A) a good motor? Whats the limitations on the internals/drivetrain? Whats possible to get out of it with bolt ons, cam and ECU (or piggyback?). Is there a T that comes in FWD?
Yes, its a noob looking for all the information he can on a CA swap into a B12

Re: CA in B12 (outcastcat)
There's only 3 KN13 pulsar owners with CA18DET engines installed and one B12 with CA18DET engine installed and that would be me. It's not easy to wire, but the mechanical install can be done with the use of a donor pulsar.outcastcat wrote:Can anyone tell me what parts are needed and what it takes to put a CA18DE into a B12 sentra.
