Cool.

Why the CA18 and not an SR20 tho?

 

Cool project mate.

 

Very cool project mate whats the engine spec exhaust manifold looks

 

thanks a lot, had 2 be the ca18 just because of the less wiring etc.... i hope the engine will be running around the 200-210 mark when its finished.

Cool project. Go drifting in it and upset all those nonces who think there the nuts with there rice rockets.

 

Awesome fallen in love with this car.

 

thats the car complete up until the point of running ...im well pleased!...here are some pics and a video...tell me what you think

 

Thats bonkers!! I love it!!!

 

amazing mate well done

 

nice one mate i love it

 

Very cool. Sounds pretty awsome, very loud turbo whistle too.

Noticed it smoked a bit. To fix that, vent the cam cover breathers into a tank etc rather than back into the car, but you MUST fit 1way valves on the breathers so they cant breath back in, as that makes S13s smoke as bad if not worse than with the standard setup.

If you think you can turn up in a CA18'd Anglia and do well in a drift comp your sorely mistaken.
And if you think they will be upset youd be even more mistaken, youd get nothing but repsect, they not all blinkered idiots like you...
