Hi Bros,

Anybody got a good workshop to recommend within the states of Johor to Selangor for swapping of engines? I am looking at swapping out my MY 2008 Mazda 3 puny 1.6 litre engine to a 2.3 litre engine.

I thought that law only applies to Protons?
All cars and in Proton case cannot change to 2.0L even though within 25%, except Perdana and Inspira, because they already have 2.0 in the line up

From legal standpoint, cannot be done due to the allowance of 25% engine capacity. (donno about kopiko-power though to have inspection "pass")
The engine can be transplanted but the brake system should be upgraded too coz the existing brakes are puny too.
