Yes use the Z6(same head), I heard the JDM D15b is pretty agressive already(don't know specs) so you won't see much gains.

i've heard the stage 2 is much better than the stage 1. I wouldn't even bother with the stage 1. Get the stage 2 with part number 59300

yes it does work. timing will need adjustment by about 5degrees either way (will depend on how you install the timing belt) this will be due block height and cam timing.

when buying go with the 59300 or even crower stage 3 otherwise you will not see any improvements. I used to run the 59300 in my d15b improvements past 5.5k rpm can only be noticed.

improvements with 3-5whp can only be noticed don't think you'll see more then that.

do you think that you only gained 3-5whp because the stock cam is already an agressive cam in the d15?
