if you have a 96 you might be better off with the odb2 version of the bp in your style.....

[wheresthericego]

you really should go with a 96 BP

not to sound rude but b4 posting a thread make sure you read everything there is about swaps b4 posing...there is a full thread that has answers to all your ??'s about motor swaps......the thread is called "the non-official guide to swaps....

Ok
Finaly I'm going to sell it....
and just buy a JDM z5 for about 500$

that's a 20 hp gain
And only 80 000km

And no fitting , it's bolt on ...exept that the intake is different

yeah that might be the best bet in your situation ... messing with obdII to pass emissions takes alot of the fun out of a swap and yes there would have been alot of wiring and in-depth diagnostics to get it to pass emissions

dude, you live in Canada... There are plenty of 95-98 BP's at the junkyards

Where i'm living the only Bp in about 10000 km² is on a escort gt ..and i want to sell mine so
I'm living in Charlevoix ,Quebec.Canada ...a kind of far

I'm going to do something easier to swap ...like bolt-on :p
And reliable with low mileage like a JDM Z5-DE

I wouldnt be able to race against my friend with 20 more hp but still ..this is cheap, easy and reliable....the North american way

No, just kidding but i speak to my friend and we will be able to swap it in one complete day so ...sound good to me

Not here. I was looking for 1.8L brake setup and it was not easy. I only found some of it. And it's not like people have been raiding the yards for this stuff

Someone know something about the ZL-VE ?

And if it will fit in my car ?

Told you the wiring is different... You could use the BP thought, just need to swap all the sensors from the Z5 to the escort BP and find an OBD2 BP ECU and do some wiring for the OBD2 BP ecu.

I'm not sure the JDM Z5 is worth it, it's prolly rated 20 more HP because of a higher redline and maybe different gas, what makes it pointless. I honnestly don't know about that, it's just seems a waste swapping a 1.5L engine, we're not in europe here...
