D15 Motors Potential or No???
I was suppose to get a B16 95 Coupe but the seller backed out on my at the last moment...said he was too attached to his car 
Anyways so now I just went ahead and purchased a stock coupe with a D15 motor.
Im wondering if I can get any serious potential out of these things(230-350hp) with a decent amount of money spent on it??? Or should I just leave it as is and invest some money into buying a B16 motor/tranny and doing a swap???
Let me know what you all think

Re: D15 Motors Potential or No???
like any other honda motor, it can be done.
Is it the stock D15 motor ? , What I would do is buy another motor and build it while you can still drive your car, ( D16 if you can for the little extra displacement ) And build a simple boost setup.
Will put you in the 200-300 hp range ( depending on alot of factors such as turbo choice and tuned pressure ( psi ) very easily and wont cost you as much.
