sounds a bit strange ???

you sure it's a ca20det and not a ca18det? Only asking because I've read about what it takes to create a ca20det (see eurisko's project thread). I'm eagerly awaiting pics  ;D

Mind if I ask how much it was?

Actually, Gli and Trx prices can be so varied its not funny. I payed a trx price for my gli ($3500), and ive seen people pay half that for a trx. But it depends on condition and where you go. My car was immaculate, and from a dealer, so i had no worries whatsoever in paying it.

And CA20DET is no easy task, i can vouch for that. You need a LOT of money and a LOT of luck to get it done. Ive spent easily over a grand in shit i dont need/cant use because its hard to find ca engine parts.

Good luck with the Gli. Get some pics up and hopefully see you on a cruise soon ey? :P
