hey guys just wondering how much power ca has standard, and how much boost they can take standard.
cheers

well im doing the datsun 1200 ute conversion with the ca18det and it has 130kw at the flywheel (claimed) but ive hurd of people putting the stock ca powered silvia on the dyno and it only producing about 100 rwkw
as far as mods go after u start touching the boost in a stock engine its the fuel pump and injectors will need doing first ( and maby a thicker gasket ) but with out the gasket ive seen people run 15psi with only the fuel pump and a slighty better pair of injectors ... but i really woulnt run it like that for extened periods he said hes pushing it becuase we were at the strip

ps he ran a
14.1 with a deasont reaction time

ill be running my ca18det all stock except intercooler and exorst ill be getting a safe tune ( around 14psi )
and ill be pulling my hair out if i dont get better than a realy low 13 sec pass

I run a stock motor with a bigger turbo, a front mount and a big throttle body and I got 158kw at the treads at 11 pound

i've got a to4 highmount turbo, microtech computer, r33 gtr injectors and bigger intercooler and all that jazz and hoping to get atleast 200rwkw if i don't i'll be annoyed lol

yer i no how ya feel guys i just sold my vy ss and bought datsun 1200 ute with the ca18det motor in it pick it up thursday so just finding stuff about them so i can make it go quicker but car comes with spare ca so0 i will put that on the stand and build that up,

lethal_john you shouldnt have a prob getting that with the right components though i think a t04e is WAY to big ull hate it champ wont spool untill like 4500. . 5000 lol and that will suck

you got pics of your setup lethal_john. sounds interesting.

mine is a fully rebuilt ca18det. forged internals. gtr injectors, microtech lt-10s with ignition module. t28 turbo. aftermarket exhaust manifold. intercooler. 3inch stainless zorst. and other #### i cant think of.. runs 214rwhp with coils failing at round 4g. where the power is. so waitin on some splitfires. theyre estimating around 250-260rwhp. not sure on kw. but makes a bulk load of torque. more than a worked sr that was in the shop on the same day

sorry don't have any pics yet haven't even got the car to put the motor in lol im goin to get it on the weekend, but i nearly finished building my motor can prob get some pics of that.

turbo cost me $200 lol so i thought i'd give it a go and if it didn't go alright i was just gonna go get a disco potato.

my mate has got a forgies (not sure), microtech, intercooler, bosch coils and everything else is standard i think might have an sr20 turbo but it makes 185rwkw (240hp) on 12 pound i think he said

edit - think the turbo i got is t3/t4 or somethen, cheap anyway

i made 130rwkw with a stock ca18det fmic, 3"exhaust, rb25 t3 on 12psi, a few years back with the old ute..

im hoping for around the same power as lethal john, when daisy goes on the dyno next week...
