hello every1....can someone please help me out...i bought a 94 dx hatch 8 months ago, pretty much everything's stock. and it feels like the engine's not going to last any longer...im not that good with cars but i've read alot of info from searching regarding b16's b18's h22's and k20's.....but they are all out of my reach....i cant afford them haha.....

-where can i get a low mileage d16z6....? i tried hmotorsonline.com and from the site i only saw a d15b.
-what's the average price for d16z6's?
-which would u guys recommend d15b or d16z6?

i need something reliable that would take me to school and work without dealing with alot of maintenance.


thanks alot guys, pls dont flame, i did search.....help me out...

I picked one up with two transmissions for a hundred bucks on Sunday. It needs a timing belt/water pump and a dizzy, but I'm really not worried.

Call Steve at hmotorsonline and ask him if he has any ZC Vtec engines in stock. They are identical to the D16Z6 and only cost like 50 dollars more than the D15B. Either the D15B or ZC Vtec will be perfect for a commuter car, try getting an S20 B000 tranny while you at it for an additional 150. Good Luck

D16Z6 and ZC Vtec are IDENTICAL, so parts are interchangeable. D15B and D16Z6 heads are identical but you might run into some problems if you want to build the D15b bottom end since I believe not many companies manufacture rods for them.

What I mean by the D15b and D16Z6 heads been identical I mean they both use PO8 heads and the parts could be interchangeable.

Isn't the ZC a dual overhead?

I picked up a D16Z6 complete for 350. That is block, head, tranny, water pump, timing belt, ect, ect.

Make a post in the WTB ads and look through the FS threads.
