Engine Setup: Nissan CA18DET, reprogrammed factory ecu, 320hp Garrett ballbearing turbo.
Driveline: Standard Nissan CA18DET gearbox with Subaru Liberty clutch.
Other Mods: S13 front suspension and brakes, EVO5 Mitsubishi intercooler.
Horsepower: Est. 280hp @ the flywheel

Owner's comments: Basically just an experimental toy, trying out something different from the usual 4AGE mods. Next should be a twin turbo conversion. I try to use readily available bits from other manufacturers rather then off the shelf performance bits. makes it somewhat more satisfying doing all the work yourself since 98% of all the work is stuff that I designed and built myself. Very little has been shipped out to a shop.
