Engine Help
 
HEy what up everyone i just recieved my new engine for my mazda 323 1990 hatch and i was told that my car would be running high 13s or low 14s what the J-Spec 1.8L DOHC 16valve with a BPturbo with 180 horse. Does ne one know if that is true or what and how hard is the install cause i have to change the trans and everything i wasnt sure if i should do it or i should have it done by mechanics thanks alot

Don't know yet! They haven't finished installing the engine yet.

M323speed March-5th-2002 06:45 PM

Dude your getting the FS-ZE put in thats a phat engine how much are they charging you.

LinuxRacr March-5th-2002 06:55 PM

I paid $2190 (That includes $220 for shipping to Texas) for the engine, and the install is gonna be somewhere between$1200 and $1500 at the local shop. I hope to have my car back Thursday. It has been almost 6 weeks since the Nitrous Incident!

Damn you must be excited shit..Hey how long did it take corksport to get your engine to you after they had the money... Hey what happened with nitrous

Hey you live in texas right? are you going to the racing event the 4th and the 5th of march if you dont live in texas sorry

LinuxRacr March-5th-2002 07:19 PM

It took about a week. Go Here
To find out what happend. I had just raced, and beet a VW Passat about 3 minutes before the Check Engine Light came on.

M323speed March-5th-2002 07:26 PM

Shit
 
Damn that sucks but now your getting an awesome fucking engine so i guess its not that bad are you going to spray in your new car

LinuxRacr March-5th-2002 07:29 PM

If I do, I will have some safety features in place and probably use the Nos NOSzle system for EFI engines.

M323speed March-5th-2002 07:38 PM

yeah thats the way i would go when i decided to put nos in just a small amount for emergencies lol and i will probably use nos or NX nitrous Express. so was your car stock when your were spraying

LinuxRacr March-5th-2002 07:41 PM

Yeah, but I used a Zex kit. The reason it failed was because I hooded up the vacuum lines wrong! My phuckup! There are several on both boards who have Nitrous, and have had no problems on stock internals.

M323speed March-5th-2002 07:45 PM

Aight cool thanks but first i am just going to do mainly everything i can to my engine before nos and Derrick says i will be running 12s which is a nice speed to be sittin at. And then i will go up to the city and so them some shit but hopefully it works out. Hey what do you think of the EVO 3 kit on my car i have a 1990 323 hatch
