KLZE again ... (tranny)
I know it may have been posted before but it's late and I have to sleep 
I was wondering if the MX-6/Probe GT KL-ZE tranny will fit my 1st gen protege ?

This guy is one ERDT. The EGT and first gen pro are the exact same (aside from styling and a few minor diffeences). He made it work and you can to, dont let other tell you otherwise.

EDIT: hmmm I tryed a mx3 tranny with a KL-03 and it was a little weird, and I like long gear so maybe I'm gonna try to find the 626 one.... what year should I get it?
EDIT2: Ohhh it was the 1.8L tranny.... does it make a difference? is the mx3 2.5L tranny better for the KLZE ????

ok first off no the kl-ze tranny won't bolt to the protege motor, second if you even have a kl-ze tranny more props to you because that tranny is a j-spec one and kinda hard to find, i think you mean the kl-de tranny off the probe.mx6.626 as for the mx3 it never came with a 2.5 v6 only a 1.8v6, and as for the guy with that escort i highly doubt that a protege tranny on a kl-ze because THEY DON'T FIT, also alivegas tell your friend to email me at dezznuts59@aol.com because i was helping him with the wiring but he never responded
