www.osakajdmmotors.com sells Mazda's K8ZE W/140 HP and slightly more torque than our K8DE.<p>This is due to more agressive Camshafts and better quality fuel in JAPAN.

I wonder what the motivation would be to buy a K8ZE for $900 over a KFZE for $580???

IF you get JDM 1.8 make sure you keep you old exhaust manifold and any othe EGR components which are not part of the JDM. Also, I don't know for sure but I have alot of electrical problems since the swap and I'm not using JDM ECU.
