ok i know the sr is faster stock but from what I have heard on this board is that the CA has much more potential and stonger internals. I am now very interested in this eninge could anyone help me out and list some advantages and disadvantages. Also I would think that the CA would be cheaper to buy becuase of the huge demand for SR's these days. jsut a thought. thanks.

that sounds like a pretty good deal to me, the ca does not have anymore potential than the sr. Also take into mind that the ca's are older, they will have more miles/ have been sitting around longer than an sr20.

The CA has an iron block, and the SR has an alluminum block. They have the same potential from what I've heard. It's all about what you, the user wants. Don't just get one or the other because everyone else does.
