This is my KLZE. She is beautiful.
Welcome to the show boys and girls! I bought a KLZE today. 400 bucks (plus I paid the guy 50 for delivery) with the tranny and fully loaded with everything. Said it's got about 120k on it and the clutch (which he said is stage 2 but doesn't know the brand) has about 70k. Got a bunch of goodies with it as well like KL02 VAF and the collector pipe with O2 sensors... Took off the VC right away and confirmed the KL31 camshafts If this thing works it's gonna be the craziest deal in ZE history lol.
Now, does anyone have a curved neck IM and the proper ECU?

Re: This is my KLZE. She is beautiful.
For sure, will clean. And that VC will definitely go, can't stand looking at those 4 ugly letters
Re: This is my KLZE. She is beautiful.
Check out that junkyard on mavis rd that I told you about for the IM, I saw a KL millenia there not too long ago.
And congrats When do you plan on doing the swap?
Oh and if you're gonna change the water pump and timing belt while it's out, I have a water pump that has really low miles apparently, I don't need it because mine stopped leaking.

Are you kidding? That's minimal. Under the VC was a little brown but nothing that a few oil changes with synthetic won't change.RX8SE3P wrote:Man you guys get a lot of rust eh?

Re: This is my KLZE. She is beautiful.
Have the valve covers and intake powder coated. I didn't and now wish I had of. Is there any reason why he can't use the K8 valve covers? Replace all the rubber hoses now whle it's out. Buy some Devcon Duathane 94 and fill the mounts about 2/3rds as the K8 mounts are too soft. Replace the timing belt and how about a new clutch disk and bearing?

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Re: This is my KLZE. She is beautiful.
I'd rebuild it while it's out.... after having gone through the drama of getting a rooted ZE the first time, there's no harm in making a fresh engine with 0 kms

Re: This is my KLZE. She is beautiful.
Unfortunately I don't have the money for a rebuild. Every mod I do to my car is on a budget, as you can see even by this purchase. I'll do the basic maintenance stuff and drop it in and see how it goes.
Re: This is my KLZE. She is beautiful.
Wow that is a good deal. I spent >$400 to replace head gaskets. Have fun with the swap.

Re: This is my KLZE. She is beautiful.
What a great feeling to finally get your first ZE. Congratulations. I paid $900 for mine and I even picked it up. I’m not going to complain though. It’s the nicest engine to drive that I’ve ever owned. This is what the MX-3 should have been all along.
