like the blue valve covers. looks complete.

Post by **NeedCAforS13** » Wed May 14, 2003 2:15 pm

much darker in real life...it was dark and the camera does weird things with the flash...i was thinkin either keep the blue, or do that nurburgring gold they used on the skyline engine! that is one sweet gold:D

what did all of this cost you and what will you have to purchase to complete the install and drive the car? ... btw... how do we get through inspection with a ca18det? do they burn clean and confuse DOT when the look under the hood? I wouldnt think it would draw attention unless you have a flashy car.

right at the 1k price for everything needed to run it (stock basically) but the engine was $400 and the transmission was $200...

As for smog or whatnot, they don't test anything in florida...

Man, that seems like a good deal to me...I gotta get my *** out of MD...stupid MD

Post by **udelslayer** » Wed May 14, 2003 2:15 pm

you got the engine for 400? what about the turbo's manifolds and other goodies?

where did you get that nice looking engine that cheap? Now I'm jealous. I live in Delaware and in chicken country here, I'm sure I can get away with a lot as long as I have the boost turned down at the station. I'm worried that my Ca18DET swap will breech 2Gs when I'm done with it. I see many here who get them cheap and others (like most places) are quite pricey...

Is there any special place for good parts?

thanksjw

engine complete (the turbo was on it i just pulled it to replace the seals!)

the place i got it no longer sells CA's but you can call them anyways...

nice!! love that blue !! and i now think for sure that my car came witha short shifter!! that shifter is long! so thats what a unmolested harness looks like !!! mine has a huge knot in it and is crazy long! very clean now lets hope your car runs better then mine has!

Post by **elballoonrat** » Wed May 14, 2003 2:15 pm

man that thing looks dumb, i would hate to have that engine, if i were you i would drag myself in the street and shoot myself, then just leave all that CRAP to a dear ol' friend in Winter Park.

Post by **NeedCAforS13** » Wed May 14, 2003 2:15 pm

haha timmy you suck!:D why don't you post some pics of that crazy mr2 you've got! I'm sure some of these guys would like to see how you've destroyed that thing (in a good way!)

Damn both of you have some nice *** motors. And Need your S13 is clean eheh. Good luck with the swap and all.

Post by **explicit** » Wed May 14, 2003 2:15 pm

nice motor are you gunna put the ECU under your feet or get it modified to go under the pass. dash? (sorry if it was asked or is common knowledge... i think my post count explains it all)

Post by **NeedCAforS13** » Wed May 14, 2003 2:15 pm

it actually fits nicely on the passenger dash...the CA harness unlike the SR is actually too long, so you just coil the extra harness in the passenger firewall! There are afew wires you have to lengthen, like the mafs and the o2 sensor...but its pretty straight-forward
