so here's an e-poesklap for you!
what the hell is wrong with the SR20det??? i couldnt believe how much simpler, better and faster it was when i rebuilt mine, and i've rebuilt a ca18det twice.
i will never ever recommend a ca18det to anyone EVER again. its a POS motor in comparison. its also the reason i would stay away from the RB motors now. mainly they are too expensive, but if i could afford it then i wouldnt be comfortable with the similarities to the ca18POS motor!!!
if you have a good deal on an SR20, then go for it!
oh ya - jealousy makes you nasty gary.

6-7k not a bad price, seeing it includes the gearbox. problem is , nobody wants them.. gave mine away for 2k
