Chris I was joking I have a 1.8L...though I was curious why he picked it over a sr20. I guess if you really want an iron block. What's the weight difference?

Re: picked up my ca18det today
i picked this motor because i got it and extra stuff as a trade for my busted old hatch. the kid who was trying to do the swap ran out of money and didnt have a car. i also got a 3in ss dump pipe, downpipe and test pipe with the motor all new meagan stuff. i like this motor also because it is light and strong. if i bust my tranny i can just use a ka tranny on the ca bellhousing and it isnt so popular so parts are cheaper and more availible in the us because a variation of the ca was used usdm nissans. i want to compleatly rebuild it and make a safe 240to270 hp.
