    camshafts for 1.8s?

    Right, but then list someone who has done it with success. Its the only example I know of, so I just need other examples to prove that one wrong. Are you running a 1,8 with different cams?? Or do you know of anyone??? I have done intake and exhaust including exhaust header, so cams would do...

    The is what "The Man" wrote to me. the stock "FS-ZE" cam came on the 2.0 sportive in europe... justme from estonia installed this and the mazdaspeed exhaust cam on his 1.8 before and got poor results, so you can forget about this But thats just the FS-ZE cams. If you try something else with...

    camshafts for 1.8s?

    Only ones I know of, is DBillas in Germany, and they only do reground cams. So you would need to find some used and get them send to Europe... There must be a better alternative, but not what I know of, since I live in Europe... But there must be someone who can reground your old cams for...

    Will a strut brace from a Lantis fit the protege???

    Will a strut brace from a Lantis fit the protege???

    So will a strut brace from a lantis 2.0 KF v6 fit the Protege 2.0/1.8?? The chassis platforms are soposed to be close, but the Lantis are CB platform, and the protege is BJ.

    WTB: FS ViCS INTAKE MONIFOLD

    Thank you, but I'm only looking for a complete one. I had the idea that they where a dime a dozen in the US, unlike here in fancy-a$$ europe, where they are impossible/very hard to find used.

    swapping 2.0 for 1.8

    The cams and the injectors are not the same for the 1.8 and 2.0. If you are mixing it up and using a 2.0 head with injectors on a 1.8 block or the other way around, I think there will be trouble. But might be misunderstanding you. Or am I...?

    swapping 2.0 for 1.8

    If you are talking FS-DE 2.0 and FP-DE 1.8, the bloks are the same, and so should the engine mounts be. You can only use your tranny goodies, if you have a FS-DE gearbox (G15M-R). But that gearbox should bolt right to the 1.8 blok. As said, there are the same. The FP gearbox use a different...
