Does ANYONE know where i might be able to find one? Maybe some the OG's in Japan might be able to lend a hand with this one.

An S14 SR PFC will plug into the CA harness and will run your car also....just will not operate the butterfly solenoid. The S14 unit can be found used used on Ebay and FA/Zilvia/Nico for $400-$600.

You'll have to ask the guys at Yellow Munson Tuning here:

I do think you either need to re-pin a few of the wires or get a conversion harness to go between the two....I havent seen those for sale recently. Repinning is easy if you have both OEM pinout diagrams.

I've heard from a few people that the Mine's factory upboost tune for the CA is really just a slightly tweaked SR20DET OEM basemap, so I feel fairly confident the S14 unit will work once repinned (minus the butterfly solenoid). You can even get the D Jetro version and ditch your MAF!! Also, I believe the AEM EMS CA18 and S14 SR part number (30-1622) are the same...so...that confirms the use the same ECU plug. Anyhow...

a conversion harness from yellowmunson is one way of doing it (but it is pricey) just get the s14 SR pfc with the same plug as the ca18. You can verify this by looking at the AEM part numbers for CA vs SR plug and play ecu options as stated above. SXOC.com also has good information on this, and tells you what wires need repinning i believe.
