I bought a 94 civic sedan it came with a D15 motor i swapped it with a ZC vtec engine. but the engine had no distributor and i have no info on this engine. the ZC vtec is d series. i tried looking for the vin number but cant seem to find it. does anyone know any info on this engine or am i pretty much screwed.

And you can't just go to the dealer and pick up a new dizzy ?. Or go to a pick n pull if it fits it fits, I don't know how integrchangeable the d series distrubuters are but http://www.d-series.org/forums/engin...stributor.html

And do you have the correct ECU for that engine?

DumpdEJ6

For one thing, he needs to know which dizzy will work on it, the SOHC ZC didn't come in any vehicles here in the states that I am aware of. Also, you're talking big $$$ for a stealership dizzy.

gabriel0830

i have the ecu it came with it so yea and thanks for the info i think i can get it now

DumpdEJ6

That doesn't mean you have the CORRECT ecu, if I recall correctly you need a PM6 ecu.

gabriel0830

oh damn now i need to check that too thanks man good looking out cause im trying to fix it up good but its these types of things that stop me

@ryd i was suggesting that mabye a y8 dizzy or something sold over here was compatable(you didn't read the rest of my post)or ebay it's not hard to find one is what im saying

Don't see why you couldn't run one off of a Z6. Then again I'm no swap expert.

DumpdEJ6

you edited your post lol of course I didn't read what you hadn't put there yet.

as grumblemarc posted he needs a p70 ecu not a PM6 that is an obd-0 mpfi ecu not obd1... Im pretty sure if he ran a z6 dizzy and a z6 p28 ecu it would work fine. the ZC was almost identical to the z6 here in the states. i see the p70 is not a cheap ecu on ebay. a p28 would be cheaper and work fine. you could also always get a chipped ecu as well. i dont know if u plan to boost later which u would need a chipped ecu anyway.

I too dont not see why it wouldnt work

Never edited my OP I implied it by saying "I don't know how integrchangeable the d series distrubuters are" not going to argue about who said what...
