i miss my mx3!!!!

[killerpickle]

Sup peeps,<P>Well, I dropped my mx off at A-Spec on monday...the 26th, and it should be done next week...but, oh boy do I miss my car!! Is it wrong to be so much in love with a car?....<P>Anyway I should have a nicely running KLZE powered mx3 in a few days, and, against many people on this boards suggestions, a 6 puck copper clutch made custom by ASPEC. In the end, I really wanted to get the HD-SS clutch kit from ACT, but it was more expensive and I had little time. He assured me that they install it in nearly every swap, with no complaints. Oh well, its only a 450 dollar risk <P>I bought NGK G-Power spark plugs, and mobil-1 synthetic oil for the swap. <P>later!

Good luck trying to pass the e-test in ontario with a KLZE bud. It's almost impossible to get em' to pass in Ontario. I will probably get flammed for this post, but it's the truth.

i believe its 350 american. Which is roughly 500 canadian and thats before duty shipping and tax...I think total it was over 600 dollars and thats not even installed.<BR>I got the aspec clutch for 450 installed no tax....<P>As for emissions. Its really not too hard to find someone who will "make sure" it passes certification, if you know what I mean...

Passing Emmisions is not an Issue. <P>Just visit your local "Carquest" and spend 25 dollers on a emmision solution. it garentees a pass. or you could also put some ethenol in the tank and drive it on the highway for 1/2 hour before the test.<P>hope that helps.<BR> <BR>also never tell the mech. you did this.

[killerpickle]

what is this carquest you are talking about? Im curious

[Custommx3]

carquest is an auto store, similar to pep boys and autozone.

haha, there's nothing wrong with being in love with your car. I drove home the other day and then didn't notice until the next morning right before going to school that I had a flatty. No time to pump it, I took the bus. In that short time, I missed my car so much! just knowing it wasn't in the parking lot and I wouldn't be able to drive it home...okay...maybe there is something wrong with that...I'm obsessed!

The klze will pass emmisions in ontario and here is some proof.<P>KLZE tested on 13/11/2001<BR> limit reading<BR>cc ppm 89 4<BR>co% 0.50 0.01<BR>no ppm 684 490<BR>rpm 2845<P><BR>Here is what my 1.8 did in 1999<BR> limit reading<BR>cc ppm 89 75<BR>co% 0.50 0.14<BR>no ppm 684 314<BR>rpm 2134<P>so it appears my ze ran cleaner than my 1.8 did.<P>I have my egr hooked up, all I can say is mine passed with flying colours and I hope it keeps running that way.<P>Hope my formatting shows up so you can read this<P>Cheers

[killerpickle]

I haven't picked up my car yet, its done though. I am wondering if A-spec hooked up the egr for me? If not how would I do this? Is it hard...I'll search the forums but if you can tell me how I'll send you lots of money....or maybe at least give you five stars <P>thanks

if u don't mind me asking, how much did the swap cost in total from ASPEC???

[killerpickle]

sure I dont mind.<BR>I did the KLZE swap and I had them install their "a-spec" 6 puck copper clutch.<P>The total was 3750 give or take a little. With tax included...
