People need to remember that CAs are a 20 year old motor. If you don't replace heater hoses, water pump, timing belt, bearings etc before you install them you will run into issues.

1200post - I am not suggesting you didn't do these things. It sounds like you've had a rough run. Hopefully you will be happy with the Z18.

Regards Matty

my CA has approx 180,000 k's, still go-in fine, i bought it from the importers with 177,000 K's on the clock. all i did was replace the timing belt and cleaned the injectors.

The motor had 140.000 on it and also im talking about having the motor 10 /12 years ago so thay were pretty fresh its 1200 post,s girlfriend every one to there own taste but the sr20de /det are still a lot better .The z18 my boyfriend has drove his every day for the last 18 years everywear and has broken down once because of a fuse ive never had trouble with mine as for the sr20 well he brake,s a piston or too long time ago but thats what you get when your tuning and learning is it lol

go the CA18DET man

The two of them share their cars and their women by the sound of it

Sorry husband to be The thing is i just dont like them the z18 never seams to have problem like ive heard with not just mine but others and the z18,s are in two diffrent cars 1 1600 datsun and 1 gailant as i said each to there own

so even with a big brake upgrade and all that stuff, you would not be alowed a sr20det in a 1200 ute? in vic. on a ca18det and sr20de?
