Alright i wanted to start this thread to see what parts it would take to make your P5 all JDM. Post pics also of the mod you are talking about. We can go with exterior, interior, suspension, engine. It doesn't have to be factory..............so let's post away :D

FS-ZE engine swap............would you need the whole engine or just the Intake Manifold, Cams and ECU??????

Ask LinuxRacer about this. I think he did it and said it wasn't worth the trouble.
 
he P5/MP3/MSP/Protege ECU's won't work with that engine because of the valve control. The "JDM" ECU would be a huge pain in the ass to try and get to work because its right hand drive, just for starters.

And you are right about the Cams and Intake manifold. Im pretty sure the compression on the FS-ZE is higher as well, I wanna say its like 10.5:1 or something around there.

I think im missing the point of this thread though, are you trying to make your car a Sport 20? or what?

I second that, higher compression requires higher octance fuel to avoid detonation. The FS-ZE engine outputs 170hp N/A
