![]() ![]() Lets say I am able to get it running, and swapped to OBD2, will the car be tested under 2002 P5 emission requirements? What sort of items should I check/replace in order to at least get it to crank? Starter solenoid? Ignition switch? Alternator? Questions for you (if you wouldn't mind): I checked and replaced the main fuse but haven't done any more work on it. ![]() The instrument cluster doesn't light up or anything. Anyways, a friend of mine had hooked up the battery backwards and now the car won't crank. Being naive at the point of purchase I did not consider this. Unfortunately, I later found out, I won't be able to get the car e-tested in Ontario because the P5 needs to be tested with OBD2 (a custom megasquirt system was wired in). I parked the car and hadn't worked on it since a couple months ago. On the way home from the purchase, the transmission went (5 speed) due to the fluid leaking while it was sitting. I purchased a P5 with a KLZE dropped into it (July 2013) and was very excited about the car. I stumbled across a tread you had contributed to saying you had dropped a KLZE into a P5. It will work perfect and you will pay $20-$30 for it rather than $60-$100. Just search for a 93-94 MX-3 GS vaf and make sure the description says JE50 as well as the picture. These people have discovered that by doing this they can charge $40-$60 more. VAF: JE50.this is where the useful info lies.If looking on ebay for JE50 Vaf don't buy one that has KLZE listed in the title or description. The VRIS points are nto correct though so you will not be at the best power like you are when using K元1/36 w/ JE50 VAF If you are using a 93-94 harness the ZE will run well on the KL55 ecu w/ a KL02 VAF. Simply use new tubing but be sure to insert the OEM check valve inline with the new hose.ĮCU: K元1/K元6 are the correct ECU as stated. The brake booster hose will need to be modified. Simply remove the hardlines from the Protege and use 3/8" high pressure FUEL lines and clamps to the inlet/return for the KL. Heater core hoses will bolt up and work fine, some trimming may be necessary. Or cut off the Protege U bracket and weld it to the PGT shift linkage. The Probe GT/MX-6 shift linkage corrects this BUT the U bracket that mounts to the base of the shifter is wider so place some washers into the base of your shifter lever to take up the slack. Basically it looks like it's in neutral when it's in 1st gear. The Protege shift linkage will work, but it places the shifter in a different position. If using a JDM straigh neck KLZE you'll need to use a smaller battery like a Braille 2015 or relocate the battery since the intake elbow won't clear the OEM battery. Power steering high pressure line bolts up but low pressure line needs to be routed will a reducer to bolt up to the KL PS pump. Again, depending on what year/OBD your ECU is. MegaSquirt also offers a plug-n-play tunable standalone for OBD1 KL's. Xtreme Things offers a plug-n-play K元1/K元6 ECU for the JDM KLZE with the proper VRIS points. Probe GT, MX-6, Millenia, 626 ECU's all work, but you have to match OBD1 or OBD2 with the ECU for your VAF or MAF and O2 sensors. The KL's coolant inlet/outlet ports are reversed for the FS-DE 2.0l. Probe GT/MX-6 radiator or OEM Protege radiator with longer coolant hoses. The actual brackets that mount to the motor and transmission so they will bolt up to the Protege OEM or aftermarket motor mounts. Or use a JDM intermediate shaft with a JDM motor OR USDM shaft with a USDM KL. You'll need to modify the USDM Intermediate shaft to bolt up to the JDM KLDE block. IukekiniProtege's Protege/KL swap build thread Some of the Protege/KL build threads here on 247.com Here is a great buyers check list to look for when buying a KL Here is some general info on the Mazda KLZE and KLDE The easiest way to tell the difference is to look at the intake manifold.Ĭurve neck JDM KLDE and USDM KLDE (170hp) These are the four main versions of the KL available to us in the States. USDM KLDE (found in 93-97 Ford Probe GT and Mazda MX-6 LS) 165hp Some general info about the Mazda KL series There are more and more KL swapped Protege's out there but the info is scattered all over so I though this would be a good thread to keep general info in one spot and ask questions during your swaps. ![]()
