Cheers for that, any idea about the engine swap ? Hahaha

[project.r.racing]

Like any engine swap, engine + loom + ecu will make the job alot easier. with loom + ecu, well there'd be alot of cutting and patching to be had.

I've read somewhere that stock loom in kfde an my ecu will run the ze

Yes but you won't get the full benefit of the ZE engine.

[mattylagana]

Cheers for that reply, so if I bought the engine what will I need? Just engine an wire it up or also, maf ?? Any insight Cosmo I've herd you have Done it?

[mattylagana]

Cosmo ??? ANYONE?? Help!! Lol

[Mad Mat]

DR PHILL WHERE R U???

Na u will need (and I'm assuming) klze ecu, maf, engine loom, injectors. If u want to get the full potential out of the motor. But u can run the klze motor with just the standard motor injectors and maf and engine loom and ecu..

[mattylagana]

Won't the ingextors come on the complete engine ??
An will my maf not work with te ze ecu ?

[Mad Mat]

I'm not 100% sure but the injectors might be a different resistance reeding to the klde ones.. And the maf might be different too.. I'm just saying this from experience with bpt conversion. U might be able to use ur stock maf with the klze ecu.. Just google it there is a guy here who put a klze in a bj. Search for it and see if he used the klze maf..

[mattylagana]

im confused the stock injectors in the klze should be fine what exactly do you mean im lost, im looking into conversion not rebuild on current engine.

can anyone shed any light on if its actually a klze with info given an pic's?

ive requested pics of the letter's stamped into the block below inlet manifold, and im now just waiting, also does anyone know if the klze ecu will plug into a kfde stock loom ??

[Mad Mat]

I'm 80% sure that it is a klze.. The straight nose on the I'm is the giveaway

[mattylagana]

hmm i was thinking that 2 but they also come in the curved neck an alot of the inlet manifolds match up so no certain way to know is my biggest fear ay, ps cheers for your ongoing support mat I know at times im a bit lost haha,

[mattylagana]

Ive found one KLZE in aus price is 1650 to my door, i havnt looked into if its curved or straight neck on the off chance that it is a straight neck, will i loose much if any performance by replacing the inlet manifold with my own ??, also engine comes complete dizzy alternator i assume inlet injecters and so on, though no wireing loom or ecu, so if i was to buy a klze ecu would it be plug n play with my kfde wireing loom ??

[Clean_Cookie]

As youvve got a series three, wiring on the ecu will probably be different, but the sensors may be the same. I'd get a halfcut ideally.

[project.r.racing]

dont quote me on this. but i think F vins had same electrics all through model range.

[Clean_Cookie]

Quite possible, but from personal experience it won't just be a 4 hour socket set and engine crane Saturday morning job. Be prepared to have issues. Just it sounds like you don't really understand whats involved if DIY, if taking it to a shop they should have it done within a day if all parts required are there...

[mattylagana]

Nab I understand it's not going to be a walk in the park though my father is a mechanic an my brother in law and I are fairly mechanically
Minded, the only thing I lack is correct info over the net, its hard to find the correct stuff
