Dude is that JB weld on your Blow Off Valve? Thats what kind of work we can expect from "Hi-Rev Performance"?? LOL! Also, that isnt a cold air intake. As you stated in the video, it pulls in hot air frrom the engine bay, making it a WARM AIR INTAKE. or WAI. I personally think you are a douche
@ImusGremus Only on SRs that came from an S15. Older SRs came with a T25, CA18DET came with a slightly smaller housed version of a T25 that was only good for 10Lbs of boost.
Did different models of SRs come with different sized turbine housings then? To be honest the whole thing had me confused for a while and I thought I figured it out. Now you're messing with my head again.. :)
@Lupich Yes the S15 had a GT28R turbo on its SR20det the S14 s14a and 180sx redtop sr20det came with t28 and there was a SR20DET that came in Nissan GTIR Sunny that was t28bb i think it was a t28bb or maybe something else but it had ballbearings, I got a ca18det with t28 that came from s14a and my gf has a s15 that has gt28r :P
@Lupich CA had a smaller T25 (some call it T23 for reference) and S13 SR20 (aka redtop) came with T25G while S14 SR20 (blacktop) and S15 SR20 (sloped valvecover) came with T28. Some of those T28's were dual ball bearing.
BC, great place to be im in bc and have a 240 that i'm doing the ca swap into. did you swap the whole harness or what? mine comes with a wiring harness aswell
Yeah, after market parts are a bit tricky but if you look online its all there and pretty reasonable. CA also has some good DIY mods like swapping the throttle body for the KA24DE throttle body which I'll be doing this spring. Lots of bolt on stuff.
Yeah for the wiring we just cut up a regular KA harness, thats the nice thing about these is that you can use the KA tranny and wiring harness.
Right now I'm running 9PSI of boost and getting at least 200whp, but optimistic we're thinking about 220whp. This summer I might boost it to 12 or 14PSI and take it on a dyno though. They're tough little engines if you find them in good shape.
if you dont mind me asking ,why a ca18det? why not just buy a sr20det? nice swap regardless. and if you dont like jdm scotkarana why are you watching the videos?
I've always been a fan of the CA over the SR, part of me wanted to be a little different but with more research it just got more appealing. Its basically a small RB, nice and strong. Only shooting for about 200whp anyways so it works. :)
Yeah, they both use T25 turbos but the SR20DET's turbos are quite a bit better and able to handle more boost at the cost of a bit more spool time (200RPM?)... a lot of places I hang around just call the CA's stock turbo the T24 to make it easier to differentiate. :)
love the ca dude i plan to get one also

turbo from the sr is a T28 not t25 and the stock ca18det turbo is T25.

@Lupich The s15 came with a GT28R turbo and other SR20DET's came with t28 and non of them came with t25. The t25 was in CA18DET.

The CA always remind me of a mini RB, I got a friend that bought a S13 coupe with a CA18DET good little engines.

@tcnlol Harness came with the swap, but it was a KA24E harness re-cut. I didn't do it though.

badass man how was the wiring?
md452006 1 year ago
@md452006 The harness came with the engine. :)
However I've been digging around my car lately and finding more and more electrical gremlins so I might need to re-wire it.

Redline is 7.5K, I usually let off at around 7K when I'm driving it hard, but mid-drift I've had it sitting at 8K with no problems.
