FINAL ANSWER- Does a ca18de starter from a pulsar fit?

[ca18det240hatch]

YES!!! fits perfect, starts perfect. Just need to use a bolt and a nut on one of them.

can we sticky this somewhere?

[The_Chosen_One]

its been stickied and known for a long time now. But good job though

People always give conflicting information about it. I haven't done anything with this because I honestly think it has to do with where you got the starter from and who rebuilt it.

[ch187]

let me ask you this. whats different between the jdm ca18 starter and the usdm ca18 fwd pulsar starter?

[The_Chosen_One]

One of the holes isn't threaded.

[ch187]

yeah, i didnt stop to think about that one.

[ca18det240hatch]

oops.....well....i felt smart....... imma hide here for a bit

[float_6969]

Some people have also claimed that the CA FWD CA18DE starter is longer and interferes with the intake manifold support bracket.

[240sxbobbis]

it does work i have one in my car right downstairs now and it works fine u have to remove the bracket to install it though ..

[DjLiquid]

pfft.. I coulda told u that. Ive been using ca18de starters with my det for over a year now (when i first swapped my det in to my 88 pulsar)
