<![CDATA[KLZE SWAP]]>Tomorrow I pick up a KLZE MX6 but dont really have a clue on swapping the engines, I understand I need a different loom as mine is OBD2 but what else needs changing.

I may well let the KLZE slip by and sell it on but want to know the logistics if I do make the swap and to make me want to keep it.

same harness
same ecu
same vaf

etc but it would run rough.

Also don't confuse first registered with year of manufacture. As I've said here alot, both my 95 (m&n reg) cars are OBDI. They were manufactured in 93.

The 4 wheel steering feels like I am in a luxurious JCB going around corners and the mix of KLZE + auto gearbox makes it less exciting to drive than skydiving off your bed.

If anyone here wants it I will do it at a fantastic price for members
