Final Questions

GrantzSiX · 5-27-08, 21:24

Okay, the KLZE swap is planned to happen in the next week or so and I have a few final questions. My car is a 1996 V6 5 speed. First of all, from all that I've read the ZE is a direct swap, but to get your last 8-10hp you need to get either a JDM ECU or get yours chipped. So if I just swap out engines will everything work fine? Also I have read that the Japenese motors were only available with a 4 speed auto so is my 5 speed manual a direct bolt up to the ZE? That's really all I need to know other than the ODB I or II MAF. Does it need to be changed or what is the deal there.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

yes will work with your stock ECU
yes will bolt up to 5spd MTX
use stock VAF with stock/chipped ECU, JE50 VAF with J-Spec ECU
