nice car. but i never drove one so???. try club626.com.au. its an australian club bout 626.

[dtp]

ok cool thanks
any other input please feel free

[acesinghit]

at one point in time in my life i drove a 97' 626 V6 (GE model) and it had a 2.5 DOHC 24V V6 EFI engine and it was so damn fast and it still is today. it handles real good and the dash is timeless. Parts IMHO is not all that popular but it can be sourced and they are generally more expensive than Nissan parts. So if you need a whole engine and transmission for eg. head to the Nissan parts bin. Great car but make sure its a properly maintained one especially with the 4-wheel discs with ABS brakes and dual airbags. You don't bound to get one with cruise control, leather seats and a sunroof.

i think the Mazda 2.5 Duratec V6 shares some parts including the tranny with the older Ford Mondeo....correct me if wrong though

[trinibuggy]

d ford mondeo and mazda 626 are based on the same platform so parts should be swapable

Have a 626 cronos gt model. It's 2.5 V6 manual, leather interior. Thinkng about getting rid of it

[acesinghit]

^^details please........local or foreign used? KL-DE or KL-ZE engine?

[Gaijin]

Okay, it's a PBA GT model, manual, leather seats, four- wheel discs, 2.5 V6, in the process of chainging engine. Have the old engine totally scrapped out right now, with the intention of just taking it to the machine shop to polish out etc. but after reaching that far just decided to buy new engine and done. was thinking of building the old one on the ground as I found a bolt on turbo kit for it on swapped and boosted.com it on 15 inch black and silver rims on four brand new tyres, also have a 2.0 brain box as well for sale if interested. I have some minor work other than that to do i.e winshield cracked and need to change. redid the gas tank also. if interested make me an offer and let's talk.

[acesinghit]

^^sounds like the KL-DE motor and I never knew local GT's came manual as well. I suggest you re-build the engine/tranny where necessary and bring it back original on the road. If you could buy the KL-ZE then yuh go like urself. Pairing that manual tranny to a built KL-DE gives you a priceless sound through the exhaust. It'll be worth it. Good luck.

[Gaijin]

It wasn't originally manual. It was automatic but the previous owner put a 2.0 gearbox on it. Does the kl-de have the short throttle body, that does be right on the intake or does it stick out a little way? might buy the new engine by weekend not sure. I say if I get 25,000.00 for it as is with the gearbox and scrapped engine for parts, it gone. does that sound reasonable? I'm asking

[Gaijin]

I saw a PBA 2.0 v6 automatic for 48,000.00 negotiable on trinicarsforsale.com

[acesinghit]

all i know is that the GT comes with leather seats, 4-wheel disc ABS, cruise control, 15" rims and the KL-DE. The 2.0 V6 version just has 4-wheel disc and 14" rims. If you not up to the fixing and upgrading then sell it as is. But there's a guy on this forum who has a red GT for sale its just that the engine/tranny doh work. Probably needs a rebuild.

[Gaijin]

mine was tranny with cruise control, changed it to manual

[Gaijin]

not scrapping but I have my old engine scrapped to the ground if you need parts. Also have 2.5 and 2.0 brain, plus two 1.8 v6 heads. Bought another kl engine complete yesterday for 5,500.00 by the 626 man in aranguez he have plenty body parts but be sure to wear protective eye wear when you are going because he will dig yuh eyes out with price! and walk with cash he has no linx, and he tends to change his prices like the weather! Good luck!!!
