SPEAKING OF AFTERMARKET SUPPORT.. IS THERE ANY ADVANTAGES OF THE CA.. FOR AFTERMARKET? AND WHERE DO I LOOK FOR PARTS AT? EVERYWHERE IVE LOOKED ARE ONLY FOR THE SR.. I REALLY WANT THE CA BUT I DONT WANNA BE LEFT BEHIND IF THERE'S NO AFTERMARKET SUPPORT..JOE

it's sparse sorry to say. HKS and Trust make turbo kits. HKS and Tomei make head gaskets and cams. Toda, Trust and Tomei make pistons. OS makes a twin plate clutch. APEXi makes a Power FC and Trust an E-manage for the CA.

Most of the big Japanese firms make bits for the CA, the aftermarket support isn't that bad, also there is http://www.norrisdesigns.com
