I'm not 100% sure on this,but Even thou the tyranny in the zx2 is a G-series i don't think the cases are the same. when i had my Z i broke the trans and went looking for a replacement. In my searches i think a ran across some info that trannys were internally the same but the case and bell housing were different. You may be able to swap the bell housing but you would need a doner G-series with with the right pattern...and if you had that you wouldn't need zx2 trans lol.

1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor
1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)
If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

I knew someone would ask if I was running those brakes. I actually took my knuckles off to sell to a member in need and made myself upgrade. My old brakes were a couple months old with pressed in studs.

Update...
Well today wasn't a great day....................
Left work on my lunch break, had TominMO on the phone, when I noticed a guy from work , behind me.
He happens to drive a '98 mustang gt......You all know where this is going..........
Well I cut my conversation with Tom short, and proceeded to make sure I got caught at a light with this guy. And of course I did.
I ended up right behind him at a light, and he started rev'n .........
So the light turns green and he takes off, so I take off at the same time. As soon as I got into second, I changed lanes and went right around him. Then when I shifted into third, my car bogged a little, so I let out of it, and checked my gauges......
NO OIL PRESSURE !!!!! (oil light on, and gauge reading 0 )
I immediately pulled over and started checking everything. Oil on the dipstick, no metal shavings, proper level.
So I reached in and removed the oil filter, and started the car (immediately turned it back off) nothing came out.
So I called my wife, and she came and pulled me home. As soon as I got off of work, I pulled the oil pan off (hoping the pickup fell off) and everything looks normal.
Now I get to pull my motor and figure this out.........
Stinks because I was planning on going to try out for Pass Time this friday. And FM4 is just around the corner.
Oh well.................-Greg
