the day gary gets rid of his will be a day to celebrate... it will be a day to mark the change of a mindset, a shift in paradigms, and the celebrations will be to introduce him to a new multitude of possibilities!!!

mowahahahahaha! but i doubt that will ever happen!

no matter - any day a ca18 gets put to the curb is a good day in my eyes!

Agreed, I loved my CA18. Not even sure if I will sell it. Its worth more to me than it is to someone else.

Shot man.

While my 200sx is standing with a blown motor I decided to do what I can before it goes in for the RB swap. So, my friend Wes and I set about installing my new BC Coilovers.

Overall, it was a much easier job than be expected. I just wish I could test them out now :)

Here are some pics of the install:

I have been planning my RB25DET swap for sometime now. Over the last few months I have been collecting basically everything I need for the swap.

Below is a list of parts that I have amassed :) I almost have everything I need, I'm just waiting on a wastegate and I still need to get a RB25 fatboy gearbox. I don't think the RB20 one I have now will be strong enough...

Parts Collection
Image

6 puk clutch
Image

Head gasket and Greddy timing belt
Image

GT35R, OEM water pump, brake lines and EBC brakes pads
Image

Intake manifold, Greddy fuel rail and precision 780cc injectors
Image

Exhaust manifold
Image

Wolf 3D v4 with hand controller and expansion tank
Image

Beeg brake discs
Image

Z32 ali brake calipers
Image

Front and rear swaybars
