commotion

ok currenly i have a 94 ex civic when i bought it, it had a g15 greddy turbo kit, but little did i know there was a boost leak. so when i fixed it .. about 100 miles later.. well it doesnt run now.. anyway i wanted to know what motor to get since the one in it is a d16z6 but i cant find a replacement anywhere i see alot of d16y8s.. i dont want to spend alot to get this fixed i may just make it stock and take the turbo off of it..

Thanks for your time
Shaun

Also.. i did do some searchin on this but turned up with the d16y8

Ok, so what's the question? Are you having trouble finding a d16z6? or you want to know if a y8 will work?

commotion

yes if i can get away with just getting a d16z6 i will but if i can get the y8 i will too.. i need the cheapest way out

do you know what the problem is that your car won't run? what did you do to fix the boost leak? is the complete motor junk now?

So, looks like your car originally came with a z6. So you should be fine.

EDIT: And as long as you use the whole engine (not swapping heads or whatever), swapping the y8 is easy and will work too. You have to mess with the OBDII to OBDI though.

yea, i think he knows the z6 will work, he just wants to know if the y8 would be okay.

OP: What is wrong with your motor?

commotion

has a knock i havent taken the head off yet but i think it is a knock


also york. pa is like 35 mins from meh lol

BryanLavo

both blocks would work fine. if i were you i would take the engine apart see what damage there is if the block is ok i would buy new rods and pistons and put the turbo on that.

Where are you finding those Y8s I need to replace my engine also and I haven't been able to find one.

maynards_ek

Dude, if you really need a y8 block I have one I will sell for $150. I visit Springfield, MO. all the time if you would want to driver there to pick it up. Let me know.
