just picked up my CA today kinda excited…just wonderin for anyone who has done this swap before if their is anything tricky i should look out for…do the ka powersteering lines bolt right up…things like that
sell it and go sr
you will thank me later
haha…thanks for the advice…but i got a good deal i think…it was on kijiji…that ca with a t3/t4 hybrid…got it for 600
forget the SR…build that CA & spank the overrated SR
CA = RB Inline 4!!

Don’t let any one tell you to sell it for an SR…
-
You have to have a KADE powersteering high pressure line. (Only if you have an KAE)
-
I would highly recommend that you completely disassemble the motor and at least do an OEM rebuild of everything. Bearings, seals, gaskets, etc.
-
Replace oil/water pump now.
-
Wiring is almost identical to an SR but does require some other things to be wired in. (PM me for details if you need).
-
Remember that the ECU has no ability to use the cunsult port for small diagnosis issues.
-
The exhaust can be a nightmare, or it can be easy. What are your plans for exhaust? (Manifold, elbow, DP ?)
8 )…If you have any specific questions give me a shout.
Hope this will help you.
yeah don’t ever get an sr, if you sell it for anytihng it better be ka-t or better…
that said. Please rebuild it! mine only had 30km i still blew it up cause it had been sitting so long…
also please get quality management, don’t ever trust an safc… nistune or better imo…
i can wire anything, if you don’t feel confindent, wiring is half my buisiness!
Damn that sounds like an awesome motor!
i agree, crack the motor open and see what kind of condition its in, do an OEM+ rebuild and start it up.
