Hi,
I'm afraid I'm one of those wierd blokes on here without a Nissan. I've got a Scimitar SS1 fitted with a CA18ET.
My current issue is that I've got a custom exhaust manifold, (allowing a top-mounted turbo) but that now the turbo fouls the distributor.
Right, so I figured that as the Bluebird has an end-mounted dizzy, I'd just swap to a bluebird dizzy right? Wrong, I've since learned that the camshaft is different at the back end, and I'd struggle to fit the dizzy to the Silvia head.
So maybe I swap to a Bluebird (Turbo) head, complete with camshaft and dizzy? Well, it's either that or chuck out the Nissan ECU and dizzy, and go for a MegaSquirt (or similar) aftermarket ECU and go distributor-less.
Any advice regarding the head swap would be appreciated, as well as any experience of MegaSquirt, or any other distributor free setups you guys might have on a CA18ET.
Cheers, Jamie
