ca18 180's never came in n/a... i had one...

you'll most probably lose to a ca18det, due to it being lighter and exactly like an rb20det only with 2 cylinders and .2L less.

If you want to race things and win, the gts is not the car to use. If you'd like to drive around in style and comfort the gts is quite good.

On the other hand...

Nitrous oxide is the easiest way forward (no not a pun). Your engine with the right setup will live with up to a 150HP shot. You will need a larger fuel pump and a set of colder heat range plugs.You will have change from $2k though not much if you don't do most of the work. I put a kit together quite some time ago on a pretty stock GTST from second hand parts I bought around the traps. The same kit plus other bits is now on 2rismo's car and he is into 11's with a little less gas than I was running. A free flowing exhaust is a good start before undertaking the nitrous kit. Oh and the nitrous kit is illegal to run on the street in WA but, fine for the drags. Removing the bottle is very easy to manage for driving around town.

    • Hi. a little later but if the topic is here. So...the exhaust is the same and you can use 25/Turbo or any aftermarket? What about intake side? Is it too "plug n play" or? (i do not remember for 100% but i think that one intake to head gasket was little bit different than on the RB25 - i bought gasket kit way back) I know that even if it "plug" those butterfly swirls would cause ECU to be confused or?   Just asking for the info 🙂 and of course the RB25 things are easier to come by

    • full send the cnut, do this   fark the wrapping and/or stick on siet. These guys are the ones to go to: https://www.realthermo.com.au/  
    • Just had a look, they don't. Fuelling on the base map is purely alpha-N, and the ignition table is MAP. Remember it's just a base map to get the car moving  
    • Hi everyone, I’m Dave from Canberra. Here's a few pics of my 1992 R32 GTST coupe which I imported back in 2006. Only mods so far are HKS Hi-power cat back exhaust, K&N filter, ATC Volanti steering wheel, Pioneer stereo, amp and sub. This was my daily driver up until 2015 and sadly hasn’t been driven at all in the last 5 years due to marriage, work, and kids taking up most of my time and spare cash.As such its in need of a bit of TLC and one of my goals for this year is to get it back to running condition and maybe look into club/historic rego. I’ve joined SAU so I can ask a few questions along the way (although I promise to google Current Problem +SAU beforehand!)
