The head in the vert is shot, so im saying screw it and gettign a CA18DET. So i was wondering if anyone has done a v mounted radaitor and intercooler on their CA? I was looking at the extra room the CA has in the engine bay it might work.

I think Ks13s CA was Vmounted

He hasnt been on in a while.But im pretty sure its V mounted.

And yeah it would work really well with a CA considering the space we have in there.

Go for it.

I have a v mount on my KA24 with the radiator tilted below it with 2 fans on it, i can send you pics if you want. Its somewhat rigged up because the last owner was an idiot.

He knows what Vmount is.

Hes curious about its application with the CA18 and if anyone on here has done it on here.

So while im sure you had the best intentions posting that SR20, it doesnt really help.

OP Here is a Vmount CA in an E30.

Im still looking up Ks13s car pics but cant seem to find them, i know i saved them somewhere.

Hehe I might have to go to a junk yard and get a bumper to use as a mold for a modified bumper for better flow for a vmount :D
