KL-ZE, KL03

[cmx3d]

I had a question about the KLZE and the KL03. Will both of these engines bolt right in to the mx-3? what mods do i have to do so that it fits right in? i've heared put the battery in the trunk, is there anything else? this question refers to both engines. thanks.

if you look at the upper right portion of your screen, the answer will magically appear before you...<P>It will say "search"

I didn't have time to look through past posts at the moment, thats why i posted my question so that someone could answer my question directly not so someone could reply with smart a** remarks

I am getting a KL-ZE and I was wondering what can I upgrade on it

What I was saying david coleman, is that yesterday i didn't have time, at the moment to search for it that's why i posted the question. i needed an answer about it yesterday, so that i could tell my friend if it would bolt right in so he could tell me if his step dad would do the swap for me. the sooner i tell him if it will bolt right in the better. see where i'm heading? If you would have read what I posted before, you would have seen this.

i personally didnt find all of those sites very helpful, they are EXTREMELY GENERAL, the swap is not as easy as everyone makes it out to be. the only difficult part i guess is putting all the wires back together, well not the act itself, but FINDING all of them. hheh heh mines still not 100% complete (due to lack of time) but tomarrow it should be ready 2 go

WO, WO, Calm down everyone. We are all here to help each other out with questions. It is difficult to find info on MX-3s unlike Civics etc. Some of us know more than other about certain topics and we should all help each other and if you know of a link or something it wont take too much time to cut and paste. It will take less energy to make a quick replay with a link than to argue over nothing. Help each other out MX-3rs, we are only a small bunch and we should help each other as much as possible. Thank you everyone

All the "tuners" on here say you can't turbocharge the ZE becuz of the compression. He may not know much about it, and I'm sure yur mom shot you out with full knowledge of car tuning, but if they wants to learn, then they have the right to learn. Why do peeps like you think it's kewl to be a fucker and degrade others? Maybe they've liked it, and never had a car to tune. That's what I did. I didn't start learning this s--- till I got my MX-3. Does that mean I started to be "part of the trend" as you put it? Or maybe some of us just waited a little longer to start learning. How can you REALLY learn about engines if you don't have one to work on? From books? Some people need HANDS-ON experience to learn. What we don't need is arrogent pricks trying to make us feel stupid, or just make themselves seem smarter by putting us down. I tell you what, if I were Jeff, I would kick every person off this board that thinks they are better than another becuz they know more about cars than someone else does. Try and keep this board civil. Ya know, it's really sad that people have to be jerks to burn their candle brighter. Too bad these pathetic people aren't smart enuff to help out the newbies in a friendly way. Tell you what, a hell of alot more people will think you're kewler if you're nice, and not an a--. If they think you're kewler cuz yur an a--, thet're not worth the time. Try not to be an a--hole.

Ok both engines will "bolt up" you dont have to relocate the battery however with the ZE as you may know there is clearence issuse with the brake fluid resvior except on one ZE from a (I'll find out later) or if you use the K8 or KL03 manifold it will fit in No Problem <BR>As for difficulty it not much harder then swaping a 1.8 to a 1.8 if you can do that you can do a 2.5 Good Luck

I would POLITELY tell them to look at the book. In my origional post I was addressing Sonic's a-- hole comment. Although you and Dave could have been a little more polite. You guys have a virtual fountain of knowledge and instead of be kewl and help us out you degrade us. People on here look up to you guys. Why not show them there's a reason to do so?
