right, this is a K8-ZE out of an Eunos 500.

They have a different intake design (140 hp K8 )

2 solutions:

-Drop the North american K8 IM (130 hp)
-Put the K8O1 (K8 ) TB on it and get a K8-ZE 140hp 1.8L Mx-3 !

Depending on model of tranny, don't take chance and remove one by one putting a screwdriver handle in the hole.

You would be putting an OBDII ECU into a OBDI car. I think the OBDII cars might have an extra O2 sensor after the cat but I'm not sure. You could hook it up and pull codes with a 12v bulb going from ten to gnd in the diag box to see what, if anything, it will be unhappy about. The only thing I coul...

...the bearings (nunmber 6) get weak at that speed due to low oil pressure. Unless you want to blow your engine then yeah go ahead and drive at that speed or crash and die(hopefully that doesnt happen to anyone) or even worse end up killing someone else. I actually not agree at all with you. The oi...

After my road test, the conclusion is: The car is 1.5 times better in handling while being more comfortable. The rear is softer in compression though. The GR-2's are stifer in compression than the Koni's, but this makes no difference on how it reacts on the car, except for the comfort. I'm at 3/4 of...

just installed them on my GS today, and without a road test, they seem much more softer than KYB GR-2's.

And of course, they're not compression adjustable, just rebound adjustable.

Do you guys have the same impression ?

I confirm that a KL-ZE is 6 sec 0-60mph.

For the K8, a 8-8.5 is normal.
