Re: Nice, clean shave...

Yall didn't even notice that - "There ain't no fart-can hanging under there!" :lol: :oops: :roll: :shock: That is what makes it look a lot cleaner then any of the MX-3s on this forum, cause they all have a fart-can or two... :wink:

KLZE vs. K8 Cooling system

Hey everyone!

Okay, on the KLZE (2.5 V6) that I have, there is this metal tube (about 1/4 of an inch in diameter, it runs parallel to the big tube/pipe for the thermostat itself)that goes from the thermostat housing to the front of the engine. There is not one like that on the K8 (1.8 V6). Why is ...

Painting the engine!

Hello, I used some degreaser on my valve cover, intake manifold, and the block to clean them. The degreaser ruined my aluminum valve cover and block so it turned some gray color and doesn't look good. The IM looks fine.

My question is> Can I return the valve cover and the block back to normal or if ...

So on the door jam sticker of my mx-3 the year is 1991, does that mean I can chip the ecu? Or you are talking about 93-up you can chip?

Thanks

K8 ECU

Hey to all!

Can I buy a chip for the KLZE and put it in my 1.8 V6 ECU, will it make the trick? Or do I have to buy a KLDE ECU and then chip that one? I mean the big difference is (my guess) in the chip, right? Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

You probably don't know what a civic Type R is then. Let me explain... It is a small civic hatchback that weighs around 2,000 lbs, it has an engine in it from a Type R Integra. The one I was talking about is a stock Type R Integra engine in his hatchback civic. The engine is a 1.8 I4 which the guy ...

You guys are weird... Okay, how much wheel horse power would a KLZE MX-3 put out? I know a guy that has a Type R civic and he has 195hp AT THE WHEELS!!! I think that is a lot. His hatchback civic weighs about 2000lbs. So any clue?

Thanks guys!

But... What about the ECU and MAF sensor, where do I get those (as they don't come with the engine). What about the AC compressor and condenser, will the 1.8 bolt right up to the ZE? Also the power steering pump and all those things, can I use my 1.8 original parts? Which axles should ...

How to not get ripped off?

Hey to all! just one quick question...

How do I tell if the engine is KLZE or KLDE if it is not in the car. Say I want to buy a KLZE engine and this one guy says his engine is a KLZE and I want to make sure that it is NOT a KLDE. I cant check the compression because the engine is not in the car, so ...

Best deal for money?

Hello,

I need good (not best or worst,...best for the reasonable amount of money!) clutch, flywheel, headers, exhaust, intake filter (i'll make the piping my self), lowering springs, strut bars, and sway bars. Anything else I forgot?

I would like to know what is a good company brand for all those ...
