I searched, and all I seem to find is info on the vtec motor. MY jdm d15b is non-vtec. It is installed into a 92 CX hatch that I just bought. It needs a tune-up and maybe timing belt, water pump, etc. So, do I buy DX parts? CX parts? VX parts? some frankenstein combination of parts?

Help out a d-series noob. Thanks

jpciii

Oh, and I also need some gaskets because it leaks oil. I know I'll need the gasket at the distributor...

thanks again.

jpciii

bump because I need to buy these tune-up parts.

I didn't know there was such thing as a non-VTEC JDM D15B.

You sure you're not driving around in a USDM D15B7?

Anyway

THe parts for the timing belt would obviously be for the motor, not the car. I don't know why in any way, shape, or form they'd be for the car.

For the motor.

That's not "D-series noob"

That's all around.

schardbody

depends on what you need, most all parts will be the same as a d15b7. sohc 16valve non vtec. all tune up items will work from the b7.

It's a jdm D15B and it is not vtec. And when I ask if I use dx,cx, or vx parts its because they all have different D15 motors and certainly one (or more) of them share tune-up parts with the motor that is in my car. sheesh! duuhhhh, should I get tires for a d16z6?

thanks to schardbody for giving a useful answer to my question

JDM_Frijoles

I've never heard of a "non-VTEC" JDM D15B? I have on myself and its certaintly VTEC. I think someone got tooken for a ride yo . oh yeah correct me if im wrong please .

spooneg8

i've never heard of a JDM NON-vtec d15b either.......

jpciii

try a quick google search for jdm d15b non-vtec and you will see the they where in civics from 89-95.

spooneg8

okay....but wouldn't that make it exactly the same as the b7? just from...japan

Tad

well for the parts,
you can know for sure by just taking them off and bringing them with you to buy the parts you need.

just compare them on the spot before buying.

for example, a timing belt, just count the teeth, if the tooth count is the same, it will work.

water pump should be the same shape(there are a couple with different housing lengths)

prettymuch everything else is universal, as long as you stay with sohc nonvtec parts.
i'd probably just look for dx(d15b7) parts for the spark plugs, wires, dizzy parts.

oil filter is totally universal(i use an s2000 one on mine).

most certainly depending on what production year (OBD) it is. if its an obd1 motor then yeah, its the JDM equivelant of the b7

o0Jash0o

sounds like the b7
look for your engine stamp itll tell you, if it is the d15b7 you would ask for 88-95 civic 1.5l engine parts

chrisw85

Just to confrim and dont mean to thread-jack, but buying parts like water pump, timing belt, engine seals, rods, pistons, ARP studs, etc you want to buy usdm D15B7 parts for the jdm D15B vtec?

EX-T

Wow, it says it's 130 hp!

jpciii

OMG...

The 130hp would be a vtec version... they made a three stage vtec d15b in japan, don't know if that is the 130 you saw. The NON-vtec is only like 108... or 102 or something like that.

As to the question about d15b vtec parts, that question has been answered many times in other threads. search: d15b vtec parts list


Okay, in all likelyhood, my motor is very much like the USDM d15b7, but I wanted to ask before I go and buy parts. I thought that I would get an answer from someone with experience, but I guess this motor is too unpopular...

For now, I'm going with 92-95 DX parts... that is the USDM d15b7, right?. If anything strange pops up, I'll post about it.

thanks.

the non-vtec d15b is the same thing as a d15b1/b2/b7

it is generally carbureted also, look to see if you have a mechanical fuel pump blockoff plate bolted on near the intake manifold (where a vtec solenoid is on a vtec head)

so basically buy your parts for a 1992 civic dx.

They're all the same, you fucktard. ****, that's worse than a question I would EVER ask. It's the same **** as a regular USDM D15b - DX - 92-95, it'll work, like somebody said, compare on the spot if you want to be sure.

******* retard.

Thank you. Yes, there is a block-off plate where the vtec solenoid would normally be.

I tried helping you in the first post. You felt it neccessary to flame me for it. Go expletive yourself.

jpciii

LOL!!! you got issues, son. You accuse me of being too stupid to know what my engine is and that the timing belt would go with the engine and not the trim level (duhhh) AANNDDD you even said yourself you didn't even know my engine existed. None of which was even remotely helpful.

First of all, the jdm d15b VTEC does, in fact, take tune-up parts from different USDM motors. Second, there is barely even a mention of my non-vetec version on this entire site... so why you would would get all butt-hurt about me even asking the question makes no sense. If you have a problem with people asking questions about hondas, you probably shouldn't hang around on honda-tech.

Syndacate

It's simple ****, if you can't get it, view the first two words of your first post, and you didn't do it enough.

Water pump? Take it and match it.

Timing belt - count the teeth.

Use your ******* head a little.

its not where the VTEC solenoid used to be, its where the fuel pump IS on the carberated version, when using mpfi manifold and ecu that gets blocked off.

all 88-95 sohc non vtec 1.5L blocks are identical, as are most other parts internally w/ the exception of the pistons, use tune up parts from any 88-95 non vtec as well as the water pump, timing belt, and tensioner. EVERYTHING EXCEPT THE PISTONS BASICALLY.
