Re: how do i clean my alloy oem rims on mx3

Personally I am yet to use a spray on cleaner that gives a good as clean as a litlle bit of elbow grease.. Go to any car store and pick up some "bight shine wadding".. It is polish build into a wadding cloth.. You break a bit off and rub on.. it works instantly.. I hate some serious road w...

Re: Tell me what you think of my ride???

(I will do this on the weekend) I also am looking for a nice set of side skirts as well.. might have to go custom.. I would also love to get Altez...

Re: ZE Vs 03.. how much harder to install

The EGR is only required when our vehicles are roadworthied.. that is when we sell them.. If I never sold the car I would not have to worry, but yes we need the EGR to register our cars if not they are not allowed on the road. You were right the j-spec does not come with VAF although I now have sour...

Re: ZE Vs 03.. how much harder to install

That link had alot of reading thanks, Being an Auzzie it confused me though.. We need EGR controls on our vehicles. This Is what I gather I need to Do. Buy j-spec Ze engine with VAF. Keep 1.8L ECU Buy stronger clutch (optional) Swap manifolds from 1.8 to 2.5 swap mounts/distributor/etc from 1.8 to 2...

Re: Differences?

I noticed no-one in Australia had posted a reply so I thought I would clear it up down under.. All models are called Eunos 30-x here.. They came standard with Elect Sunroof/ABS/Air cond full elect windows and mirrors/ CD. The only option I have seen is leather interior. They were also rarely sold fr...

Re: ZE Vs 03.. how much harder to install

Makes sense.. just read your posting re: why it runs rich with 1.8 ECU.. Can anyone list the parts required to buy and those I can steal from my 1.8L to replace with a ZE with a 2.5 VAF. I really need to convince my mechanic that it is possible and that it can be done in a week providing I have all ...

Re: ZE Vs 03.. how much harder to install

That i the first time I have heard that you can use the 1.8 VAF at all. So if I source the 2.5 ECU.. should not be to dificult then I can use the 1.8 VAF. My mechanic is very worried bout this swap so I am trying to source as much info as possible. Will existing clutch/gearbox etc hold up?

ZE Vs 03.. how much harder to install

I live in Australia and have sourced both a ZE and a 03 V6 KL motor to swap my 1.8K8.
How much harder is the ZE to install compared to the 03. Can I use my existing ECU?
This is not a very common swap over here so I wanna make it as easy as possible.. and cheap!!
