ok so i got into a huge arrgument with my boy yesterday who is also in the honda game and has been for a while about the del sol and what engines came in what trim for example i thought that the "s" came with a d15 the "si" came with the z6 and later on the y8 and the "vtec" came with the b16a3 and a2 he is telling me that the "si" came with a b series sometimes and even said that the "si" came with a zc. Now we went on napa prolink to the vin decoder and put my del sol vin in and it says mine is a 94 si that orignally came with a dohc vtec engine that had the hp of 125-127 now that is where im confused i have looked on the web all day seen everything that proves me right but he his still saying he is right he even called his boy and he said the same thing about the si coming with

s = d15 non vtec
si = b16 vtec, not sure on z6 or y8
vtec model = b16a2/3
this stands for usdm cars. in europe i think the vti, and in japan the sir is the same as the vtec model. well with the b16a, not a2/3 :p

The base "S" model(called the VXi in Japan from 1992–1994, but after 1995 calledthe VGi) came with a 1.5 liter SOHC 16-valve four cylinderengine and rode on 13" steel wheels. The Japanese VXi/VGi versions came with a Honda D15B engine. This was an entry
level VTEC engine that produces 130 bhp (97 kW; 132 PS),
matching the power of the 1.6 Si version. Despite the body
resemblance to a mid-engined car design, the del Sol shared
a front-engined design with the contemporary Honda Civic.
The uplevel "Si" (called the "ESi" in Europe) model came
standard with a 1.6 liter SOHC 16-valve four cylinder engine
with Honda's VTEC. The Si also came with 14" alloy wheels
which were offered in an optional body color-matched paint
scheme on Samba Green models, power side mirrors, cruise
control, rear disc brakes and a front anti-sway bar for
improved handling.
The VTEC trim level (called the "SiR" in Japan and the "VTi" in
Europe) was added in 1994 in the United States (The CR-X
Model in Japan had the B16A engine with 167 hp (125 kW)
though), with the first appearance of a 160 hp (119 kW)
Honda DOHC VTEC B-series engine in a U.S.-spec Honda;
similar to the B16A found in the JDM Civic SiR-II. This trim
level came with bigger front brakes, larger front anti-sway
bar, additional rear anti-sway bar and wider tires.
Google baby! lol

just for reference, napa doesn't always have my em1 in the system when i'm getting parts, and sometimes they don't list certain nissans. so for specific engine specs, i wouldn't go to napa or alldata for a dependable source.

This is the right info! ^^^

Si does NOT mean DOHC!

In the US all del Sols had SOHC engines except the del Sol VTEC. The S had the non-VTEC SOHC engine for every year and the del Sol Si came with the 1.6L SOHC VTEC. The del Sol VTEC always had a DOHC VTEC engine.

meant to say:

s = d15 non vtec
si = D16 vtec, not sure on z6 or y8<-----------D, not B

this stands for usdm cars. in europe i think the vti, and in japan the sir is the same as the vtec model. well with the b16a, not a2/3 :p

Del-Slow 101

S - D15B7 ('93 - '95) D16Y7 ('96 - '97)
Si - D16Z6 ('93 - '95) D16Y8 ('96 - '97)
Vtec B16A3 ('94 - '95) B16A2 ('96 - '97)
