Ok nice write up I need some help I'm currently working on the same project and I've got the motor all tore down to the block and I'm takin it to the machine shop next week to get honed and cleaned up any idea on pistons? I'm not building it to race its gonna be a daily driver but I know how it drove with the stock head and I just want some more power I was thinking maybe some high compression pistons and maybe a stage one cam not gonna change internals the head has already been shaved but I'm not sure how much was took off any suggestions???

This thread is about simply swapping heads. Not about upping compression or changing out pistons. I would suggest looking into the All Motor forum but from MY research, you're wasting your time all the way around.

Im running a d15b6/z6 mini me and trying to do the timing but i know its a half tooth off so how to make up for that???

Funktastic0177

Can anyone help me out with some info? I have a z6 head going on a d15b2 block and I need to know which exhaust manifold and downpipe to use.

Also, what would cause the idle to be at 2500? I know i'm going to need to fix that soon.

awesome write up! thanks.

Good write up. I wish this would have been around when I built my first mini me about 7 years ago

BauleyCivic

It was written 10 years ago.

Good write up hoping to start mine this weekend trying to keep it around the same budget

jollygreengiant

so overall what other effects did this have on your car other than a little bit better low end torque and the VTEC benefits? any difference in fuel mileage? tings of that nature.

fyi im not necessarily new to cars, i know a little bit, basics, just nothing about hondas, hence my joining this forum :D

edit: sorry, old thread i know..

I'm doing a mini me right now I'm in the wiring part like the distributor, fuel injectors, and the ecu i was wondering if i can use a stock vtec manual ecu in a dx with the dx wiring all i would have to do it wire the vtec the same way i would with a chipped ecu right? could i do that, feed back pleaaase!.

RyanCharlie

D16A6 to D16Z6 Conversion..."Mini-Me"

I'm guessing that might help?

nice write up but wouldn't it be easier to just go full swap zc for the price?

dailyej6

I'm doing the same swap except with a y7 head I just wanted to ask what p/s will I need? because my y7 P/S isn't bolting up right.

How can i get the oil jet out? With what socket? Thanks in advance.

DumpdEJ6

I don't think you use a socket, it should slide right out if you can get a grip on it. Maybe try using a pick or a pair of needlenose pliers.

haystacks

Will this swap work on a 88-91 hatch?

What do i need for ignition distributor? i cant use the stock d15b7 distributor on the z6 head? does it need a new cap or the whole thing?

Shiwa
