It fits nicely into a Datsun 1200 truck/pickup/camioneta. Many say this is the very best engine for a swap. Details are at: Tech: CA Engine Swap

Question been seeing is a few mixed comment on the CA18 box's..... What i like to no seeing that your ute has a CA18......!! In the 4cyl's pintara's did they only come out with STUMPY 5 SPEED BOX's??, Why im asking is i dont really want to cut another hole in the tunnel,.... Im looking at buying one soon

I might just buy them over the counter at a Nissan wrecker I guess. Stumpy 5 speed by the way comes from the 2.4E Skyline MR30. The pintara has a CA20 in it, the stumpy 5 speed is not a CA bellhousing. (AFAIK)
