New to the board. Sorry for a played out question. What are some current times for a ZE swap in an MX-3? I've been thinking of ditching my Probe latley and getting one. For the lighter weight body ya know. I mean I'll hit probably mid 14's with my ZE once it gets in.<P>------------------<BR>Mazda Powered 93SonicProbeGT<BR>AIM:Benkrys

Low 14's. 14.3 at 5,000ft above sea level is what I'm running.<BR>DriversClub<BR>

14 flat at sealevel with the regular bolt ons and a good driver is reasonable...<P>------------------<BR>David Coleman- <B><I>Moderator</B></I><BR><A HREF="http://www.PinkMX-3.com" TARGET=_blank>1993 Mazda MX-3 GS Special Edition</A><BR><B><I>Why get clear tail lights when only Geo Metros are gonna see them?</I></B>

YO! Its ben!<BR> <BR>Sup man. Yeah, basically everyone who swaps in a ZE, whether theyre a good driver or not, runs mid to low 14's. I dont know of anyone to run headers in a ZE powered Mx-3 yet, so that could take it down into the 13's since the K8 manifolds are tiny. <P>------------------<BR>David Coleman- <B><I>Moderator</B></I><BR><A HREF="http://www.PinkMX-3.com" TARGET=_blank>1993 Mazda MX-3 GS Special Edition</A><BR><B><I>Why get clear tail lights when only Geo Metros are gonna see them?</I></B>

Your dang right it's Ben! <P>I really don't understand why more ppl don't do up MX-3's... Man. I want one!

It is the narrow path to righetousness <P>------------------<BR>David Coleman- <B><I>Moderator</B></I><BR><A HREF="http://www.PinkMX-3.com" TARGET=_blank>1993 Mazda MX-3 GS Special Edition</A><BR><B><I>Why get clear tail lights when only Geo Metros are gonna see them?</I></B>

And the more I talk about the dang thing at work the more I am conviencing myself to get one. Just today. Telling some one about the 1.6L B6T engine. Saying what it could do. Who much power you could have. Really made me think. <P>------------------<BR>Mazda Powered 93SonicProbeGT<BR>AIM:Benkrys

You think the B6T is bad?<BR>Check out the BPT <P>Dave Lauzier: 11.0 @ 130ish...full interior, daily driven MX-3. 525hp IIRC... <P>------------------<BR>David Coleman- <B><I>Moderator</B></I><BR><A HREF="http://www.PinkMX-3.com" TARGET=_blank>1993 Mazda MX-3 GS Special Edition</A><BR><B><I>Why get clear tail lights when only Geo Metros are gonna see them?</I></B>

Yea, but that takes a little more work to put in. I'd do it though. 11, huh? That's pretty good. He have a website?<P>------------------<BR>Mazda Powered 93SonicProbeGT<BR>AIM:Benkrys

Hmm...the only site I've ever seen him on is the IDRC site, beating Tony Fuchs <P>------------------<BR>David Coleman- <B><I>Moderator</B></I><BR><A HREF="http://www.PinkMX-3.com" TARGET=_blank>1993 Mazda MX-3 GS Special Edition</A><BR><B><I>Why get clear tail lights when only Geo Metros are gonna see them?</I></B>

pardon my ignorence but i am also new, what is a ZE?

A KL_ZE is the Japanese version to the KL_03. The KL_03 beeing the engine found in the 93- Probe/MX-6/626/Millenia. The ZE (J-spec) has 200hp over the 164hp US motor. Either engine will fit in an MX-3. Does wonders for an MX-3! A 200hp engine made for a 2,900lb car! I've driven and MX-3 with the 200hp engine. It screems. Definatly worth every bit for your cars. Probably the most cost effective upgrade for an MX-3.<P>------------------<BR>Mazda Powered 93SonicProbeGT<BR>AIM:Benkrys

Cool... I'd imagine the price though, around 5000 or more? would it also work with the 4cyl mx3?
