a few jdm d15b questions, searched but didnt quite find what i need
aight i have a 95 dx coupe, usdm d15b7, now im plannin on buying a jdm d15b from hmotorsonline and it comes w/
- Motor
- Intake Manifold
- Exhaust Manifold
- Injectors
- Fuel Rail
- Throttle body
- Alternator
- Distributor
is this all i will need to put it into my dx?, will my mounts and axles etc work? i know i will need to grap a p28 ecu but what else do i need?
also hmo has the optoin of the tranny for an extra 150, and i nkow some ppl luck out and get the limited slip diff. option on some of their trannys, my questoin is i saw it mentioned a couple times but not denyed or confirmed that a dx tranny would be better for this swap if your plannin a turbo, which i am, becuase it has longer gears. Ne info or answers to the questions would be awesome thanks.

Everything is compatible so your stock mounts, axles, shift linkage, etc will work. The JDM D15B uses a 1 wire O2 sensor I believe, so if you run anything that is not the JDM P08 ECU you will get a CEL. You can use your DX 4-wire O2 sensor and a P28 ECU and everything will be fine. The DX transmission will bolt up, but it is absolute ****, opt for the optional $150 hydro tranny. You will probably not be able to get a hold of a D15B LSD tranny as they are on line a 6 month backorder or something crazy like that. Lemme know if you have any questions.

ya definitly go for the tranny, the DX tranny will suck all the fun out of your new engine.

I got petter performance out of a P08 then the P28...also, as long as you have a 4 wire O2 already installed, it doesn't matter if you use a 1 wire or 4 wire O2, it is backwards comapatible. People with VX's, like me, have to convert from 5 to either 4 or 1 wire O2's. Oh yeh, do with the stock tranny or if you are cable, go with an SI tranny. You'll hate yourself less in the long run.
