Hey guys, i havent read the whole thread as i gotta go but i've read most and will give you my opinion.

I owned a 89 Nissan 180sx auto, when brought it it had the typical boy racer trims, full veilside bodykit, HKS exhaust, some biscuit rims lol and the drivers seat from a skyline. Engine had some mods to it, cams turbo and injectors. Engine was pumping out 300HP on stock ecu and was a ball of fun, never had any of the typical electrical probs, engine never missed a beat. Parts were easy to source and the engine was ok to work on. While i had the car i brought a TA celica, 3tgte powered, engine went lovely for around 1000K's then she blew. Parts were a shocker here, engine was more difficult to work on, and overall for the work i did, id rather spend it on the ca18det. Im in no way flaming toyota engines, i love my 4age a 7agte, but i personally think the ca18det has the 3tgte over.

just my 2cents Very Happy
