i just bought it a few weeks ago, its d16z6 5 speed, well I have a bare Y8 manifold I want to put on, I was wondering if there is a write-up on it or what I would need to do (sensors wise) do i have to grind anything or cap anything off? and sometimes when i come out of 1st or 2nd gear, i will be accelerating and it will just die down, kind of bogg out and I will have to let off the gas for a moment to drive it again, does anyone have any ideas?

beanej169

anyone? or should these questions not have been brought up?
I just changed the plugs and wires still does the bogg a bit.
also has anyone opened their trunk after a rainy day and seen a PUDDLE of water laying there? just happened, I dont see any holes, does the sunroof drain that way? or should I keep looking for holes? THANK U!

I'm pretty sure the y8 manifold is a straight swap, not 100% so don't quote me on that. And the puddle in your trunk... Happens to everyone. I've been trying to fix this problem in my last 2 95 ex's and I have yet to ever fix it, although alot of people claim the sunroof drains are clogged. As far as your car bogging im not sure. Search though, you'd be amazed at what you'd find.

For the IAT I just put it into the intake arm. You don't have to weld a bung on or drill and JB weld it in like I've seen a few writeups.

Thanks, on the back of my Y8 manny there is no holes for the IACV, it has an outline or "option" for one, do I just drill some holes for one? Also why is this?

HondaPartsHero

I drilled holes in my short ram intake. One for the IAT probe, and two smaller holes to screw it in. Worked great for 3 years.

but what about the IACV, I know now that the Y8 manny is off a automatic, I guess I need to drill holes in place of where they need to be, what should I use "BIT" wise.

ok..
does anyone know what year they started putting rotors all the way around on the civic?
my 93 ex has drums, "damnit" my brother has 94 ex and it has rotors, basically i just want to know what models will have the rotors and years, just incase i dont find a dc teggy! THANK U!

mikej94civex

no model civic 92-95 came with factory rear discs (correct me if i'm wrong) also ur problem sounds like
plugs and/or wires, possibly somethin with the dizzy...i had a similar "bogging" problem and new plugs n wires
fixed it so try that bro, btw i have a 93 ex with d16z6 too

mikej94civex

although the del sol si and del sol vtec did come with rear disc...

beanej169

i put new plugs and wires, oil change and cleaned out the vtec solenoid, so far.
my brothers 94 ex has rotors and he bought it off a old lady, only owner. So.... he was surprised when we saw them yesterday on his car.

I think the EX with ABS had 4 wheel disc. Not 100% sure though.

mikej94civex

that's odd...

beanej169

yeah my bro has ABS, but do u know if that only comes in ex 94+?

Mot Gnuoy

These ones have the ABS option

92 only on ex sedan
93 on EX sedan,
94 SI, EX coupe and sedan, LX.
95 EX coupe and sedan and LX

Keep in mind, this was an option, not all of these models have it.

I got a 95 ex w/ ABS and four wheel disc..

beanej169

but if I find a anyone of these models with rotors in the back.. will it bolt up like cake without the abs to my 93 coupe ex?

Mot Gnuoy

Just put integra discs on the back. Much easier to find. You will also need the proportioning valve and brake master cylinder. Simple swap.

beanej169

ya, but in central florida there has already been ALOT of coversions off the DC teggys, or they are over $250, so I am on the looks for civics aswell!

mikej94civex

^for sure easier on u and the wallet, and no the civic ex won't bolt up w.o modifications cuz theres wiring and sensors involved with abs

Mot Gnuoy

As for the brakes. It's just a lot easier to find integra rear disc setups for sale/junk yard. if you really want to do a civic one, prepair to wait to find one and possibly pay just because it was on an "ABS civic".

ok, i shall look harder for a teggy!
