    That pics in Marats sig isn't his, I don't think he's ever said it was, his RHD conversion clip is still sitting in the shop, we're doing that in a couple of weeks, plus his engine will look much nicer than that.

    We built the motor, the displacement isn't a full 2 liters, close though, will be more than a 2.0 soon. It's a fully built bottom end, forged rods and pistons, file fit rings, ACL race bearings, Cometic Metal HG, ARP head, mains, and rods bolts, new hi flow oil pump, Crank is knife-edged and polished, full rotating assembly's been balanced. Head is stock, and turbo is stock, XS-power turbo manifold. We're building a new CA18 block using the CA20's crank, and having the custom rods made for it, and custom pistons, tryint to get a full 2200cc out of it. Head's being completely redone, the current one has a bad lifter, but we have a bunch of nice Tomei goodies coming back next month . I know it's a CA, but hey everyone has different taste, Marat likes to rock the CA, I like the RB's, everyone else and their brother, and sister run SR's, why not be different, they all make power, easy, this like having a fucking pissing contest on these forums.

    I'm just gonna bring the KA-T out and show everyone up I got forged internals now, no more blown ring lands and replacing pistons every month.

    Because SRs are cheap, make power easily, are reliable, and were made for the damn cars.

    Don't hate it because it is popular.

    If you hate things that everyone and their brother has then hate 240s. Every little bandwagon drifter wannabe gets a 240. If you want to go fast then sell your 240 and buy a v8.
