Klze swap

Post by mitchell_jarvis »

i have a few questions about a klze j-spec swap.
1) would the transmission off my 18L v6 fit on the Klze?
2) do i need to change my eco from an OBD-II to a OBD-I?
3) and would i need a different wiring harnes that the one i have?
4) last, are the motor mounts the same?

1. Yes
2. Not sure
3. Nope
4. Yes

I haven't done the swap myself yet. I'm a new member but I've visited many times as a spectator. I've read many peoples swaps..night_shades WL being the most recent. So feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on anything I said.

edit- took me 4 minutes to write that....

Let me correct myself about #2 - if it's manual then yes.

^ what they said, pretty much everything is plug and play, exhaust work will be needed since the headers will be different
