        Damn, i sold my damn near perfect condition probe that ran perfect for $1500 last summer. It was all stock but in good shape with no problems and i just wanted to get rid of it for something else.

        Good luck with it though.

            yeah should be ok, i just ordered a stage 1 racing clutch for it, the clutch that was on there was pretty bad so i figured may as well replace it while i have the motor out, make it alot easier in the long run.

              The FSZE wouldn't make sense for him to swap. It's the JDM version of the 2.0 4-cylinder DOHC engine and it's very difficult to do it properly. The ECU swap is said to be extremely difficult.

                  I could care less about a 1g 1.8 that I paid 300 bucks for. I was hating shane either cuz especially you should know im friends with shane. He just isnt the brightest with mechanical shit.

                  He didnt fall off the face of earth. Hes a busy working guy. Has a 94 civic ex 5spd now and I was talking to him last night and he doesnt want to ebay the shit out of it. He was asking what I suggest getting since I own a civic also. He wants to have a nice looking car and wants to try and gain some respect back. Not sure if its possible or not but hey atleast the guy is trying.

                      He has heard. Told him today. He just thinks nothing really. Just happy he sold it finally.

                        If kids dropping RB's into 240's and other random swaps in home garages a FSZE would not be out of reach. Wiring sucks but think of the ranodomness of the swap and also the rarity. If a LS1 can be dropped between the frame rails and function in a BMW 325 then fuck anything is possible.

                                The KLZE motor came today i was reallly really excited...until i looked at my old wireing harness yeah that is a joke who ever had this car had something done fVcked up with the wireing thats probably the whole reason that the other motor went bad was because of bad wireing it is so chopped up i wish i knew who had that work done to the car or did it themselfves becase i belive the motor has been out before i bought the car becasue all the clips are broke for the harnesses, melted wires, and lots of other shit i can deffinetly say that there is some wireproblems with this car.

                                    I do believe the question was for him as well, not you. And I aslo asked the question before he stated what engine he had purchased.

                                      Was there even a hint early on in this thread that he wanted a difficult engine swap which would be a downgrade? No.

                                        Ok, I'm gonna say this once. After that, I'm deleting posts and locking the thread. Please keep this thread ON TOPIC. I'm interested in seeing the progress of the project and thats what this portion of the forum is for. So please keep the neg comments and backtalking to yourselves. Thank you.

                                          well i started assembling the new engine, and decided to replace a few maintanence items like the water pump, but then i ran into a problem, the mfg put the wrong hub on the water pump so yea my pully would not bolt up so had to pull ha;f the motor apart again. the motor should be in today. i will post some pics later today
