Update!

Post by samwdg »

I finally sourced a CA engine for my van out of an AWD U12 Bluebird!

Downside - still in the car so i have to pull it out, and its in the back of my uncles workshop behind about 10 other cars that arnt mobile at the present and the guy that owned it back in NZ got the turbo and intercooler removed and a standard manifold put on it.

Upside - Its coming from my uncle so it will be pretty cheap, i can get all the extra i need with the engine like ecu, wiring, exhaust, sensors etc... and a turbo and manifold shouldnt be too hard to source.

So once i get that i can start checking out how im gunna do all the wiring cause that gunna be abit of a mission.

Then i just need to source a LSD box, shafts, turbo and manifold, exa flywheel, n14 rotors and calipers and i should be sweet!

Oh and still gotta sort the dilemma with the n13 hubs/brake assembly.....my dad had an idea that we might be able too use a press to remove the n12 hubs from the break assembly and repress the n13 hubs in, but thats still in the researching stage. If i can do that would be good cause i can then use n12 struts!

Hey guys, been a long awhile since iv been on and havnt made much progress with the project cause i had other stuff to deal with first....

But now im back and keen to get stuck into it again, but still not sure what road im gunna take as im still stuck in the same spot with how i would fit the CA and match everything up...so i was thinking of going with an e15et, from what iv seen from some of the projects on here, they can be pushed pretty hard and take the heat.

Plus my stock e15 is on its way out...needs new rings and head gasket is weeping, so im thinking get to it and replace the engine but not sure what to do yet. Id still love to do a CA conversion, but maybe just settle with the e15et?

you can push an E15ET pretty hard but they are just so prone too fucking up 1 way or another. with a CA18DET or SR20DET conversion you'd be gaining good power from the get go and will be more reliable.

Ok im gunna go with the E15et, as its alot less hassle and cheaper and it will still be some fun. So probably gunna be looking to buy a complete exa, as i have other plans for the shell 8)
