Anyone that says CA18DET parts are to hard to come by is not trying hard enough to find them.

Brand new OEM ca18det Throttle Body from Japan.





This should obviously stop my t/b shaft seal leak that i have. Plus i got my 444cc injectors clean and flow tested, Z32 MAF is on its way and my Dr Drift Tuned ECU is on its way from Aussieland!

July should be an awesome month! Dyno sheets to come around the end of the month.

The whole reason i went this way instead of the KA road. Is because my shaft seal blew out and ka t/b's are not that much newer so i figured go brand new. The new CA one was that much more then the KA one so i said do it. Plus this way i dont have to remove my intake to dremel out the intake opening.

looks great!

but with more fuel to make more power, you need more air. you'll upgrade in the future IMO.

I know what you mean but your referring to 300+hp before i start choking the motor of air due to a small throttle body, ill be more then happy with 250-280 rwhp.

Man that would have cost you some coin...

There mustn't be too many left now though...

There are guys running 250-300rwk (335-402rhp) in australia with the stocko throttlebody, so it will be fine for your application...

But im not that jealous lol

Enjoy the Dr Drift ECU ..... did he program in the rb style limiter?

Yeah is that mobne's CA?

If so I thought he had some manifold porting performed? I also thought it made 497whp on one of the runs?

But being in europe you may know much more about it than me..

I have seen a few of his videos, his build is very well thought out (plus the advantage of a much colder climate), he posted some info about it on ns.com maybe 8-12 months ago...

Plenum design is interesting, I am swapping to a 68mm throttle body..

But I am having the secondary runners ported, unfortunatley my engineer can't do much with the plenum itself except bore the diameter of the inlet and port match...

I need to maximise the useable efficiency of the T67 25G, so every little bit helps I guess.....
