jmaze

i like my z6. has the power i need when i need it. easier to find parts in my opinion.

Garcia505

i cant find a z6 trying to find one any websites will help whats the diffenence between the z6 and the d15 vtec

egsleepercivic

if you were in florida, I have mint one for sale

Garcia505

wish i was there to than my search would end but im not

jmaze

have u tried the bone yards in your area? look for 92-95 civic si or 93-95 civic ex and some del sol's. you might have to travel to find in other areas.

i have looked everwhere in new mexico i was at the junk yard the other day and saw nothing thats why i was asking for websites besides hmotors.com they dont have any d16z6 only d15b vtec i really dont know the difference between the two so if somone can tell me that would be great thank u

nothing_shocking

Very little different between them. The D15 has a smaller displacement and 5 more HP. Also has a unique crank and pistons I believe. The head is the same as the Z6, just a more aggressive cam. If you have a P28 ecu and everything, the D15 will run just fine with that. It's pretty much a direct replacement for the Z6, just JDM.

so they are almost the same thing i have a d15b non vtec in my car if i put a z6 or d15vtec would i feel the diffenence and the only other thing i would have to change would be the ecu right

jmaze

d15b is from other countries

d16z6 u.s.

look and run pretty much the same. easier to find parts from dealer and autoparts for z6. my friend that lives in las cruces used to go to the junk yards in El paso with me back in 95 and get some good parts. leave them your number so that when they get a d16z6 they can call you.

Garcia505

so buying parts lets say for the d15bvtec and the z6 wouldnt be the same any websites would be good

Garcia505

im trying to find this swap asap cause my civic now is not running very well

jmaze

i have seen d16z6 motors on ebay in the past. i personally like to look and smell a motor before i buy it in person. jdmunlimited in oceanside get d15b motors from time to time. people buy them all the time for stock replacements. do research and do whats best for you.

Garcia505

well im finding d15b vtec on websites but no z6's i dont know if i want a d15bvtec if it is hard to find parts for them. so what im reading here is that lets say i bought an exhaust for a z6 it wouldnt fit the d15bvtec

Garcia505

k so i answered my own ? about the parts for the d15 and the z6 i would still like to find some websites that have a z6 for sale

You'll have to wire up Vtec. You could probably run it with your stock ecu, you just won't have near as much power without vtec.

The only things that won't work off the Z6 on the D15B are the timing belt and water pump. You need the timing belt and water pump for the VX model (D15B7) BUT you need the timing belt tensioner for the Z6.

Pretty much, a D series is a D series. Almost all the parts are interchangeable.

And as far as the exhaust thing goes... I don't know what you're reading, but it's wrong. Z6 exhaust will work just fine on the D15B. I know this for a fact because that's what I have in my car right now. I'm also using the 4 wire O2 sensor with the P08 (D15B) ecu with no problems.

thanks for the info
