I am ordering an engine, and in the picture of it I noticed that there is a fan attached to the engine (not electric) do I have to use this, Because if I do the fan will be blowing to the side of my car not the rad. Can I just use an electric one?

Also do I have to have a hydraulic clutch for the CA18det or can I use a manual clutch?

A couple more things,

What is an Ignitor Chip?

Is where the driveshaft goes into my wheels the same on all pulsars, I have a e16i, I just want to know if I can use the driveshafts from a ca18det, or if I will have to make them?

Roughly, what is the 0-100km/h with this engine in a pulsar?

maybe u got the RWD version?
and the ignitor chip is the power transistor.

definatly rwd version, the Silvia's don't use twin thermo fans. I don't think that the rwd version bolts up in the Exa?

Look at it this way, in the S13 the SR20DET bolts up to the CA18DET mounting points. Making that conversion relativly easy not needing custom engine mounts.
