Post by **elballoonrat** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

did you guys notice the p[icture of the sr20 is in a levin? i think thats a pretty sweet swap.

Post by **Oneor1** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

quick question on the CA one..... im not too familiar with the FWD CA's but whats up with that 1st cam cover, how come some of them have the little elbow on the end and some have it in the middle....is that a sign of it being FWD?? i have no clue but have just made this observation...someone please fill me in

Post by **boost_boy** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

No! FWD ones are on the ends of the valve covers. Could be 1 out of a 180sx or 1 out of a sylvia or just an older model, but definitely not a fwd thing.

well i'll keep this post to the nicer of the CA18DET engine pics i have that i don't think were posted, now i got hundreds of photos of engines, i'll go through and post the nicer nissan related ones.

i think i now want to vut my timing belt cover like how those guys have, was always kinda worried about soemthing falling in there and causing the belt to snap and end my engine, but it looks so, i dunno mechanical/cool.

Post by **CA19DET** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

A couple of my favorite pics from my motor

Post by **drumma022** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

Lets see how long before imagestation stops serving these pics

Post by **elballoonrat** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

VOW! i like the last post, i love grey tone motors, the more silvers greys and blacks used the better a motor looks, in my opinion. by the way, sean, remind me to show you the mgb motor next time you come by.

Post by **CA19DET** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

hey drumma022

where did you get the JDM 8 port gasket kit in the states???

Post by **boost_boy** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

They are from the Pulsar car's with twin cam motors!

Post by **CA19DET** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

Post by **boost_boy** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

Heck yeah! Even the CA16's do as well , but they have the crossover intake deal.

Post by **RubHamuSan** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

Post by **CA19DET** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm

well there ya go... i thought japan only got the 8 port intake manifold, and US and UK got the 4 port, very good to know.

Post by **DJ_SpaRky** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:32 pm
