Re: KL-ZE ECU
I believe Sean Matthews at StreetImports can get a J-spec ECU.
KLZE, ZE PCM, UR pulley, PS catback, PS STS, PRM, IAC bypass, 64mm TB, FOP hair gel

I was told by someone who had one in their hand that it was identical.

Re: KL-ZE ECU
Absolutely no re-wiring is necessary. The myth that re-wiring is needed is gossip, pure and simple.<P>You don't need a JDM VAF. They're the same part number in Japan as they are in the US.<P>You don't need to swap any sensors.<P>The only concern is with the 118 mph (actually in kmph but we use miles) speed limiter. A post by an Aussie contributer said that he defeated this by simply disconnecting the speed feedback to the ECU from the speedometer. Sounds interesting.

Re: KL-ZE ECU
I'm all most positvie that Tekguy did the KL ZE ECU swap and had alot of hours of rewiring to do<P>but tekguy sold his car and his site seems to be down
Re: KL-ZE ECU
Right, Steve did have a ton of problems with his ZE ECU. His engine was OBD-II ('96 MX-3). His car wouldn't even idle with it in there. OBD-I engines won't have any problems. I wrote a little more about this on the other ZE ECU thread that's up right now.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by white fish:<BR><STRONG>I'm all most positvie that Tekguy did the KL ZE ECU swap and had alot of hours of rewiring to do<P>but tekguy sold his car and his site seems to be down</STRONG><HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

A 03 VAF is not the correct unit to use.
