will a d15 throttle body fit a d16z6
this past month i took my car to get it checked because i noticed the idle was fluncuating and they told me it was the tps sensor. i checked around and no auto store sold it. i had to buy the tps sensor with the throttle body. i found it on ebay from this guy w/ good feedback and he said it was for my engine d16z6. i just found out its for the same year car but for d15. i noticed that there is no place to screw on the iat map sensor and i noticed that i would have to rearrange the vacuum lines. If i make some modifications will it work? or should i just take off the tps sensor to and install it to mine. are the tps sensors the same will it fit? I really need help cause the car uses more gas and with todays prices u know how it is.

TPS sensors should be the same. I can't guarantee anything though.
The D15 TB will bolt up just fine, in fact its the exact same size as the Z6. With the D15's though, the MAP is mounted on the firewall and not on the TB itself. So if you can find a firewall-mounted D15 MAP setup you could use that too.

TPS is the same, no issues there at all. Regarding the firewall mounted MAP sensor, use the stock one with a vacuum line and a zip tie, it works just fine.
