I believe CA18 conrod is much thicker and stronger from gsr conrod.. it can stand hihg boost applications..but dont know how reliable it is.. CA18 is from Nissan CA18det engine, from old model 180sx if not mistaken..

but if want more reliable, use forged conrod and piston..

totally agree with paranoid...
wanna mod, make sure u have the best parts installed or u will regret later for trying to save some bucks now but later on u will have to throw a lot more...

thanx for the information..
so means that CA18 conrods will only make ur engine to withstand a stronger boost thats all?

forged conrod and piston is expensive..nonetheless the performance will nvr regret lah

yeah correct, better invest for true performance part, no more rojak2 malaysian style, but most important thing how u put them together and tune to the max.. some of rojak2 car very fast also but the issues is how reliable and how long it gonna last..

remember, forged internal also can kebaboom if u dont do it properly
