95 Probe GT & 2000 Mustang

[pin]

That year and model of Probe has a Mazda 2.5 DOHC V6 called the KL-DE. It can also be found in the Mazda MX-6 and the Millenia, among other vehicles which I can't recall now since I just woke up. It's a very nice engine.

i think i saw somewhere that listed the newer 2.5 as slightly better out of the box than the older turbo 2.2. the 1/4 wasabout .2 faster... which could be attributed to the chassis. but i'm really into fords either, so i may be a little off on this

The turbo 2.2 was better as it was turbo but the KLZE outperforms all.

did a bosnian own it previously?

The Mazda turbocharged 2.2 is a piece. It's got a big bore, a short stroke, and only 12 valves, which means it can barely make power above 5,000 RPM with modifications. Technologically, the KL-DE and KL-ZE blow it out of the water.

I thought that was the supercharger?

The belts no longer squeel, it was the power steering, had it fixed before we bought it. As for the air 2 fuel ratio gauges yes there are still 2, but all the gauges he had are coming out and new ones are going in, except 4 maybe the shiftl light. Only thing now is a little body work on the front bumper, fix the burning oil problem, and clean up all the wires, then it should be in good shape but no where near complete

I took a not so great pic of it with my camera phone when the probe stopped into SLS one day. No knock intended but i thought it was funny.

you cant really tell. but i think the top was water temp and the bottom 2 were AF. i dont remember tho

everybody has plans shut up and lets see them lol

for all you know, it could eventually turn out to be a supra powered rwd probe. dont bash it right after he got it.

ok that was just stupid.

[krzydrftr93]

haha i dont think its gonna be anything close to that. I am friends with him and all the motor and tranny and what not prolly wont get touched. he is a person who likes the looks not speed.
Ok what would you rather have:
1. A 00 mustang v6 auto that is riced out
2. A 92 civic hb vx 5spd that is red with a small dent, very little surface rust and
some fade spots that is getting a compete GSR swap (b18c1 for those who dont
know)
I like speed so that is why im getting the hatch and get the body work done later. How about you?

I beat the purple probe "previous owner" with my 94 buick roadmaster wagon. Dam that probe is weak.
