Installing a CA18DET

my 240 got parked, It's running on 3 cylinders. Time for a swap. I know about the SR. I wanted to swap a SR.
But I need a swap now and a CA is cheaper.

Question, is the CA a drop in swap, will the mounts be the same on my S13. And how hard is the harness compaired to a SR swap.

Yes, the swap is identical to the SR swap.

CA18DET----> 89-90 S13
SR20DET---->91-94 S13

Its just like the single and dual cam KA's in the US. Let me know where you get your CA and how the install goes, i'm looking to get one as well.
