where could i get a zc engine and how hard would it be to swap it into a 91 STD hatch?

 

Go to http://www.soshinusa.com I have bought many of ZC's there and have never had a problem. SOHC ZC about $250 they are used japanese motors with less than about 50,000-60,000 miles. Good Luck

 

oh man.....

 

I bought my original DOHC ZC and trans , and later my EF9 Sir Halfcut from these guys...good people in my book.

this is a good place to start..

 

the swap is easy. i just put a dohc zc in my 91 std.

i got my engine from hmotorsonline (but you can find them cheaper).

basically, you just do the mpfi conversion, get a ecu, and drop it in.

use your stock axles and linkage.

easy stuff

i love my zc now

 

i would go with http://www.hmotorsonline.com too swap isnt hard. you have to wire for MPFI thats probally the hardest part. other then that its unbolt, pull, fit, bolt, blam your done a half a days job

 

Easy swap, pay attention to the vacume lines running to the MAP sensor. Have fun!

 

I got my engine from hmotorsonline....but i wouldnt recommend them again. their customer service sucks!

IAS can get you a zc just as cheap.

so can noyan, probably. (invirginia)

 

so easy it took 2 weeks to do, HA and you forgot to mention he will need a diff tranny SI, and to re calibrate his TPS and the wiring which seems horrible

they had great customer service to me. you cant act like the customer is always right with him. play it his way and he will play it your way. i had a clutch problem he sent me a new clutch. i know of a guy who had a head gasket problem. he sent him 300 bucks for labor and a mugen head gasket. so HMO is still the best i have seen and heard and witnessed. other places i have heard bad stuff about.

 

there's a place in Lynwood CA. that sells the DOHC ZC for $400 you get to pick whichever motor suits you the link is http://www.kwcengine.com oh the place is called WATANABE

 

he can use his std tranny he doesnt need an Si tranny. Si would just greatly improve performance

 

i ordered my DOHC ZC thursday and Steve was a cool guy, i had no problems, except they didnt have the pm7 in stock and i should get the motor somehwhere around the end of next week or the week after that, thumbs up HMOTORS
