strange but sweet. sounds like a cool job man, regardless of what you are repairing, still getting knowledge on some mechanical aspects.

VPW also stock some SR20 short shifters, varying from $99 to $400.
Apparently injectors from a VG30ET (Z31 300zx) are a decent upgrade from the stock injectors (260cc/min vs around 320-360cc/min). Yet to confirm this however.

Bumping an old topic here, but there are short shifters available on ebay at the moment for the Pulsar GTi-R, they have an SR20 engine, do they not?

Price seems good too, currently about $60 or below, so I'm thinking ... why wouldn't these fit?
209rwkW stock ... yes, it's a U12!!

It's probably much cheaper though to buy a 2nd hand shifter for the KA from a wrecker, cut the rod below the pivot, and pay a welder $10 to weld in a 1" section to lengthen the pivot point and reinstall.

I got a ca20e u12 a few days ago (another one) and it had a short shifter in it.
All they had done was cut the bottom off and extend it by around 25-30mm - like sss said
Anyway, i stuck it in my mates sr20 that we converted to manual and it was a straight fit, probly because we used a ca20e shifter setup in the first place to convert it ;)

Prolly need to raise the car up, get underneath and undo the clevis bolt holding the linkages to the shifter and drop the shifter out from the bottom.

you need to do what loop said, but you also have to remove the cat and the cat heat shield to get access to the shifter bolts. there is this rubber mount that holds the shifter that is a major pain in the ass when putting everything back together. i had to use a clamp to hold it in position while i put the bolts back in.

Hey all...

I reckon the syncros in second gear are gone in my car...its an n13 pulsar...with an 18le motor. (I think its 18le...correct me if im wrong.) anyways ive gotten some quotes and to get it fixed its gonna be around the $350 mark including labour.

What i was thinking was i heard the ca1 gearboxes are interchangable. does anyone know if this is true? are there any other gearboxes that people know of that will bolt on to my motor i have now. I have seen the ca gearboxes advertised for about $385. This to me would be a better option as i think these gearboxes would be better and can take more than what ive got now.

any ideas or suggestions would be great.

Also would the gearbox from a ca16 be interchangeable with a ca18?

Also im not too sure on what gains i will get if i can find and lsd gearbox? Its for a front wheel drive. Can anyone let me know the advantages and disadvantages of the lsd compared to the standard boxes.

Cheers

Kranzy, an LSD gearbox would be better if you can find one.
Basically the diff spreads out the tourque from the engine, if one wheel starts to loose traction a LSD will increase the power to wheel with better traction.  In short you are quicker off the line because your wheels wont spin up quite as much.

the n13 sss uses an LSD gearbox, which would be why hellman suggested you get one. it'd bolt right up to your 18LE and you'd have no probs.

i have also heard that ca18 gearboxes bolt up to the 18LE however i've never actually seen anyone with it done. considering that the 18LE is a holden engine i would be inclined to say it wouldnt work, but someone feel free to prove me wrong.

I've heard of and spoken to people who run CA18DET's with the LSD box from an N13 Pulsar Vector SSS.  That box runs with the 18le on the N13, so yeah they are interchangable... exact details and bolts that line up, I'm not sure on that stuff.

yeh they ca16 boxes bolt up to the ca18 and vice versa.

i wouldnt bother with it, just get the sss lsd box. chances are it'd be stronger anyway, cause nissan boxes are renowned for being the weak point of all their cars.

What i was thinking is i can get a ca16 box for $385...down the track i would love to drop a ca18det into my pulsar. so my question is if i was to buy a ca16 gearbox now, will it be able to be used with the 18le and then with the ca18det later down the track?

Im not exactly sure what box it is...i found it on rolin imports web page. it just says its a ca16 ffd man. no other info.

Id rekon that would be my better option as its gonna cost me like $350 just to get the syncros in 2nd done.

An LSD help transfer torque away from the wheel that has less traction, preventing wheelspin and getting more power to the ground.  In other words, you have the potential to launch out of corners quicker.

I dont know if a CA box will bolt up to a 18LE. I looked at one the other day and it looks like it would fit, but i never tried it.
The ca18 and ca20 boxes are all identical. There are 3 different gearsets and 3 different diff ratios.
The ca16 box is physically smaller and weaker. Most people that put ca18det's into exa's blow the ca16 box and put in a ca18/20 box.
The ca16 box is cable and the ca18/20 is hydraulic, BUT some of the U11 ca18/ca20 came with cable clutch, and some of these were the same size as the ca16. the later u11s all have the stronger box.

Ok I will start this back up.

KA24E/DE can be swapped onto a Z18-24 block. 1 oil drain in the head has to be welded up.

Confirmed by Eurisko that a CA18DE/DET RWD engine can easily into a FWD format. CA18DE head can installed on a CA20.

CD20DET (diesel version of CA20) crank can be used in the CA20. Diesel parts are under alot more stress then there petrol counterparts, so parts are made alot stronger.

U12 KA24E fuel filter's are also used by VL Walkinshaws and can flow to 150L/min or hour. Guy at Autopro told me this.

KA24E/DE gearsets can be swapped into SR20DE FWD gearbox housing.

The LD20 is based off the L20B. Crankshaft and various parts will interchange.

The LD28 is based off the L28. Crankshaft and various parts will interchange.

The SD22, 23, 25 is a 4 cylinder version of the SD33/T 6 cylinder.

The L20B is a 4 cylinder version of the L28 6 cylinder.

The TD42T is based off the TB42E.

The RB28TI is based off the RB30E.

More to come. I am to tired to finish this.
