Hi  
Ive been thinking of getting a 240sx, and i was just curious about the ca18det swap.  
I was wondering how hard this swap is, and if anyone had any websites or instructions on how to do it. Ive run a search here and have been searching the net for information and come up with close to nothing.

Now before anyone starts saying swap in a sr20det, dont bother. I dont want a sr20det. Seeing as how everytime i see a post about the ca18det the onlything people seem to be able to say is “get an sr20det instead”. so please dont clutter the tread with useless post.

If i get a 240sx, ill either be turboing the ka, or installing a ca18det.

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks

i searched for 3 days, cant find anything on the ca18det swap, into a 240.

Are your sure that’s the right site?  
it’s a site for a metal refinishing company
