Stock - KLZE swap transmission question

I am starting to look into the KLZE engine swap, and I was wondering if the stock transmission (t speed) in the 1.8L V6 (the stock engine is the K8 am I correct?) will work with the more powerful engine? My buddy told me it should fit per Se but with more torque in the engine I will burn through my ...

Re: DIY Smoked (tail, bumper, side) lights?

Just gonna emphasize checking with your local law enforcement before painting your taillights! I live in the Fraser Valley and called my local cop shop. Found out that this modification is illegal in British Columbia Yet it's perfectly legal to drive with no hatch in BC. Silly BC with their silly r...

Re: Engine Ticking

Thanks for the replies, no one suggested that. Bit of a relief haha not in my budget to do lifters! And I just bought the car but I believe the previous owner used 5w30 royal Purple oil. I think my next oil change is probably going to be a 10w30 cheaper oil from Canadian Tire or something. What kind...

Engine Ticking

My 1.8L V6 ticks after starting and after running a while it stops. My buddy just told me my lifters probably need to be replaced. And my mechanic said it could be low oil pressure. The previous owner told me what he thought it was but I can't for the life of me remember what he said. Anyone know wh...

Re: '95 MX3 GS Radiator Fluid Leak

I think my rad is metal. Not sure, I'll look deeper. And I'm waiting for a job before I insure it so I have time to fix it while it's sitting. I'll still look into a new radiator primarily then. Thanks for all the help :)

Re: '95 MX3 GS Radiator Fluid Leak

I'll check it out, thanks guys! Anyone suggest simply repairing the hole in the radiator if that's all there is?

Re: '95 MX3 GS Radiator Fluid Leak

Ya I was suggested to get one at a wrecker but that's not really a chance I'm down to take with my budget. If I gotta buy it I want to buy it only once haha

Re: '95 MX3 GS Radiator Fluid Leak

Aftermarket, meaning not simply an oem replacement rad? I was considering getting one from a wrecker but I'm always afraid of used when it comes to mechanical things.

Re: '95 MX3 GS Radiator Fluid Leak

Thanks bud, any specific type I need to look for or should most hoses and rads be fairly similar provided they're meant for my ride?

'95 MX3 GS Radiator Fluid Leak

My apologies if this is the wrong section, I'm new to this site. :) I just bought a 1995 MX3 GS (1.8L V6) and among a couple problems is leaking radiator fluid from the left front end by the rad and hoses. I've taken a few high school automotive courses but am far from a pro haha. Just wondering if ...
