Does anyone know the FOR SURE answer if a y8 supercharger will work on a z6?

I've searched and searched but keep getting the run around type of answers.

I know the y8 ones are offset but can you add a washer behind the boost pulley? Also I heard you have to use the jackson racing y8 crank pulley with the y8 kit, but I thought that was to make up for the offset of the boost pulley. So if I "shimmed" the boost pulley I could just use my stock z6 one, correct?

Someone please shed some light, I wanna pick up this kit but I don't wanna waste my money and not be able to use it.

 

Yeah, lots of questions about different JRSC kits.I was about to get the Y8 kit and bold it on a ZC DOHC with the zcspeed adapter, but as I read more, more people have alignment issues....so I guess the best solution is to get a ZC JRSC kit....

 

...well, then some others say that A6,Z6 and Y8 JRSC kits are interchangeable without eny modifications.....I`m getting a little confused here.We need an expert on the subject that put these kits on different cars and made them work.

 

When using a y8 kit you must use the whole kit for proper allignment.

 

Hey guys, I have to leave the scene for awhile so I'm selling my ENDYN JRSC kit on ebay.

Yes, since this s/c is a standard 2-lobe blower it can be spun in either direction.

 

good to know

 

Hi guys. I own a 1993 Del Sol D16Z6 powered, and I have a problem finding the supercharger. I have googled, for HOURS upon HOURS. I have eBay'ed for hours, as well. I've got no source of information left. Does anyone know a way I could try to get my hands on the JRSC kit somewhere? Just 6PSI is fine, I just need something to that HP a little higher for an automatic daily driver. Any idea of where to look other than eBay is much appreciated. I've looked on the web and I've got nothing left.

 

i recently tried to put on a jrsc on my 93 si and when i started it it was burning crazy amounts of coolent(white smoke) i was wondering if anyone has encountered this before? the car was fine the day before i put the charger on, i drove it 2 hours to the beach a/c runnin in 95 deg heat and no problems. also wondering if anyone has the original paperwork/innstructions that came with the kit? thanks and anyone that has any info drop me a pm

 

****ing snapping belts like a **** now. My first one lasted nearly a year... now I snap them like every 2 weeks. my last ones lasted a day. ****ing getting tired of this. I need to find a solution.

 

how can you be going through belts? thats a big *** belt that cools off plenty fast.

watch it running one day and see if anything is rubbing

a loose belt will also be prone to breaking

 

so apparently the belt I have been buying is too small, I need like 1 size bigger because its rubbing on the plastics that cover the valve train. I have been using the belt from www.supercharger.com that specifies 96-00 civic... I'm not sure where to source a longer belt

 

Uh, if it was too small it would have fit too tight

I advise you to take your current belt, go to napa or autozone, and ask them to match it with one that is like an inch longer


Should only be 5-10 bucks.

Lots of factory cars use a bigass belt for accessories, so it should be in stock for ya!

 

And don't get hung up on buying a 3 rib or 4 rib belt just because that's the number of ribs on your pulleys. You can easily buy a 6 rib and take a sharp blade (make sure it's really sharp) and cut down the belt. Lay it ribs up on a smooth block of wood without any gouges or really open grain (smooth pine works well) and just carefully glide the blade down the bottom of the grove with just enough pressure to cut most or all the way through. If you have to go at it for a 2nd pass, that's fine too. Just be careful to follow the same cut as the 1st pass.

If you're smart about it, you can make 2 belts for your 3 rib setup with 1 - 6 rib, or 2 - 4 rib belts with an 8 rib.

 

Then you have "matched" belts.

 

I cant believeu sold it bro i read all the pages of ur built i think it was 15+ or something what happen man?

loving this thread too

 

you supercharge peeps still got pulleys for sale?

 

i wanna get a supercharger some guys selling it for 300... but its only the supercharger (dk what condition)if i jump on this how much am i looking to spend? (he said no pullies incld.) Ive skimmed thru the thread several times. but the info is very spread out

 

not worth it.

tensioners bracket, S pipe, pulley, belt, all the bells and whistles on the manifold, and the manifold itself


**** it, buy a used complete setup for another 2-300 more

 

thanks for the fast reply man... It actually has the s pipe forgot to mention heres some pics

thanks cpt delsol for some bomb *** info :D

 

that is missing the tensioner stuff, belt, and fuel rail and injectors

not a big deal if you can find the tensioner setup

find the tensioner setup and then buy the super. but not before

I just got my car tuned about an hour ago

My setup:
90' Crx Si
D16a6 Stock
Jrsc kit
Hpr Header
550 injectors
Jrsc Crank pulley
tuned on e85

My Goal was 150whp

Made 178 Whp and 160ft/lbs

Fuel pump started to get weak at about 5K
so going to install a 255 walbro and shoot for 195

 

Your oem fuel pump will handle 250whp easily
but if you go aftermarket, get the walbro 190
the 190 takes care of way more power then you are putting out, and usually is cheaper

 

The one thing that many people forget when making claims about what pump/injectors, etc... will handle what power is that a blower of any kind will use crank horsepower that a turbo will not, so your wheel horsepower with a blower (JRSC, etc...) will mean the crank horsepower is actually higher than it would be with a turbo. Ie: 250whp with a turbo might be 290 at the crank, but 250whp with a supercharger is more like 325-330 at the crank.

Plus, if the pump is the OEM original pump with umpteen thousands of miles on it, chances are it doesn't flow like it did when new.
