Nissan 200SX S13 sounds like an American car!

[Shabbernigdo]

dead cylinder. had the same problem on my ka24de for a while

[skateboar2488]

ca18 = junk

[240sxRule]

@skateboar2488 look up mobnes

[thejdmaddict]

i would still take your busted motor over my wack ass n/a ka24e

[supraguy2jzgte]

sounds like its running on 3 cylinders, most likey its misfiring.

[quintrifugal]

sounds more like a subaru to me.

[ForzaIV]

mis-firing cylinder perhaps?

[vaval42]

big end bearings are dead !!! how many kilomters ? 180 000? is the problem on Ca18DET

[LeonidK340]

Injector problem or spark plug...

Ur ca18det works with only 3 cilinder !!!

very very bad =(

[MaikeruX88]

it sounds like a lawnmower.. musscle's sound better, this japanese import sounds like shit now! thnx guys... you fucked it up

[92rs25th]

hm, sounds like the sounds an american car's turds make.

[ClassicDragRace]

Oh.

Damn guys you are stupid.

This is for exhaust.

But still sounds like piece of shit.

[manfromswe]

den tänder inte på alla cylindara bara !

[nrgsileighty]

As people have said... It could be a Sparkplug or a Coilpack.

Fix your car:

1. SplitFire coilpacks

2. NGK Iridium Spark Plugs

[vanputten89]

prob just a faling sparkplug.

had that 3 times already ca18det asswell

[Skyisnotalimit]

Blow it up!!

[msprofan]

OMFG...this not AMERICAN CAR you bitch...

[kayuntheorcfromhell]

yeh it is a ca18 and he is not aussie and u sould think before u say shit like that coz u sould put the motors in holdens and fords coz we have to all ways save you when u start shit we all ways fight ur wars

[cavaliersunbird]

You have alot of nerve to make a bold faced comment like that.

when you come from a country that started out as a British prison, should I say your all criminals? You guys also always leave before the jobs done, should I say your country is a bunch of half asses? Your country is the U.K.'s Bitch! If you don't like it, get involved in your government and do something about it.

P.S. I hope a kangaroo Skull fucks you!

[bandicootman]

nice fried coil pack. get a waste spark setup avoid the coil packs from dying in future. its just the nature of the engine an coil setup they are mounted in the hottest place on the motor... in the head so a 19 year old car is bound to have stuff like this fail

[eminemSWE]

it sounds cool keep it like that :D

[akumin12]

your missing... either your igniter went bad or your coil pack took a shit.

[Energonorama]

You must be an American. I have a few points:

1) Im not an Aussie

2) I dont have an LS1 or an SR20

3) Nor does this S13, its an CA18DET

4) Jap Engines are usually more reliable than American ones

5) I dont like you.

[Sethjxl]

hahaha props on no 5. I think you will find that only the basics are designed in the us and unlikely built there due to cheep labor overseas. Most general consumer car electronics come from mitsubishi and i believe an efi engine is only as good as its computer.

It dsnt matter if you have a big hungry v8 under the hood, its all about power to weight. Id like to see how the ls1 in a monaro would do against the k20a Toyota engine in the Elise.

[momsedimapunk]

@Sethjxl k20 is a honda engine the first gen elise has the rover k engine and the new one is some toyota i think k20a swap does seem popular though

[Sethjxl]

@momsedimapunk

Ahh i see, cheers for that. Good to have a bit of knowledge around here.

[16VCalibra]

I think, you need a new power transistor.

[Energonorama]

haha... American cars must be broken then mate

[Attila88SX]

As you can all see (comment #2), i`ve already figured this out. No point in more guessing. But people encountering the same problem might find all these comments very helpful!

[triggadigga]

is that why you said it sounds american because they're all shit

[NinjaPirate1178]

you're missing firing dont be proud of this

[Rick340SX]

Yeah Running on 3 cilinders here..

[nissanmotorsports]

This could be one of two problems, or both:

1) One or more of your coil packs are fried and need to be replaced

OR

2) Your ignitor chip is shot and needs to be replaced.

[McKusse]

if you have blow off valve, try to plug it off and try again, my friend had same broblem and hes had to redo valve lines :p

[thebbear90]

i love it =D

[HahaFlyleaf]

it sounds like you have the spark plug wires swapped around you might be running on 2 cylinders or sometin idk thats what it sounded like to me

[Attila88SX]

It sounded like an American then. It was water in the ignition plug holes. Don`t know how that happened. But now it sounds nice.
