Ahhh......Brings back memories to when I got my first CA18DET..Wasn't complete, so i got another one, and that one wasn't complete so I went and got one shipped from JapanMotorImport.com in Canada! Loved it ever since!! Good Luck with the build!!

better??



whats been replaced

- Water pump- Timing belt ect- Plugs- all vacuum lines- all oil lines/heater lines- intake/exhaust gaskets. - Turbo was rebuilt.

[dekansnowman]

Just curious, why rebuild the turbo? Why not just an upgrade? I could be misinformed but I thought the T25s were not worth the rebuild because I better one was almost same price.

Not only you ask such retarded questions, its not even specific... Do some research before posting on any topic.

Anyways. Good job so far. I hope it the engine will be fine. Osaka...sigh.

Thats not true! Shiit if i had the money i would've upgraded to a sr t25/t28, gt28rs, etc. etc. but it was actually less expensive to just rebuild the stock unit. I did it myself, the engine and turbo also seem to run well. Considering my 92 240SX had the twin cam KA with an output of about 150hp~ and the CA w/ rebuilt t25 will put out in the 1705hp~ range! That alone is an upgrade and not a bad trade off. My bottom end is built to handle a lot of hp, all i need is a bigger turbo, some kind of ignition control and fuel management. For a lot of us, it depends on the depth's of our pockets!

Yo burntricer great job so far dude! You did a lot of your things quick! Lookin good! Get that shiit running!

Thanks everyone, after i get the wiring from the pulsar, ill re-wire the ECM plug and get er' going.

i may even copy you and not even go intercooled for a week or so until my FMIC comes in

i gotta tie up some loose ends, i gotta get my flywheel re-surfaced, and the clutch for the KA, (im using a stock KA clutch), boost controller, rear main seal, ect.

Wow thats so funny my motor was exactly like yours I got mine from osaka too. I had a cut harness but I told them to send me another one and after I talked to some Chris guy that worked there for like two weeks i finally got them to send me another one with a new coil pack cover because they didn't send one with the motor!!!

trust me. Osaka is the worst jdm shop here in montreal. There are 15min from my location. You don't want to see how they wash engine...

[Jiggyfry]

I thought having the engine covered in oil was their wash job! Cant stand that shop but im impressed Burntricer! Get 'er goin'!
