Re: Engine websites??
^^homomotors is definitely not cheap and the customer service is horrible if your after a d-series (zc sohc) for 88-91 civic/crx...been there, done that.
to the op visit www.cncmotors.com or try engine trend in vernon,ca or soshin trade corp in south gate,ca...i have gotten motors from all three of these companies and you cant beat a 6 month warranty. |

Re: Engine websites??
I'll sell you a motor. Its a JDM DOHC ZC 1.6 with only 60k on it. Straight drop in for a d16a6. I want to run it but cant cuz im in cali. I'll give it to you on the cheap.
|
Re: Engine websites??
my valve got stuck the piston went up and smacked the valve and made a huge hole right through the piston and the valve broke and got stuck in the piston.
|
Re: Engine websites??
I got mine from Soshin, I think the ZC has gone up in price to $550.

Re: Engine websites??
can u pass smog with the zc engines or is that honda big hassle.
|
Re: Engine websites??
i dont know! The guys who put in my engine said I shouldn't have any problems. In fact I passed smog 2 yrs ago right after putting the engine in. Had no problems at all. Now I'm due again and I went to the same Smog Check place and they told me that I have to go to the Referee Station and get a label to put in my door jamb that verifies everything is ok under the hood. So I went to the Ref Station and they are telling me that my ECU is not a valid part #?? As far as I know it's the original one, in any event it's the same one that was on it last smog check when it passed, so I am furious!!!

Re: Engine websites??
i bet if you google jdm engines, you will get a bunch of hits
|
Re: Engine websites??
maybe someone out there can tell me - do i need to use a different ECU? (current one is 37820-PM6-L070)
|
Re: Engine websites??
It matters what zc engine you have I know for sure you can pass with a sohc non-vtec zc but not a dohc zc and I'm not sure about a sohc vtec zc in cali.
And the pm6 should be the right ecu for a sohc zc because its a direct replacement for a d16a6 so I dont see why you would use another ecu unless there's a jdm version of the pm6. |
Re: Engine websites??
i believe its non-vtec and sohc. it replaced a D16a6 in my 89 Civic Si.
|
Re: Engine websites??
if u had a dpfi motor and went mpfi u wont pass
|
Re: Engine websites??
i did not make any changes to wiring, etc. just dropped it in and connected to what was originally in my car
|
Re: Engine websites??
ok, dumb question then-how do I tell what kind of ZC it is? I didnt know there was more than one.
|
Re: Engine websites??
it's the "L070" in the ECU that the Ref is questioning. Says he cannot find any proof that it matches my engine configuration.

to everyone else yes you can smog both a zc sohc and a zc dohc motor at any smog check place...now here is where it gets ugly. you can legally have a zc sohc as a replacement motor in any 88-91 civic/crx but you cannot have a zc dohc since it was never offered in the states...if a smog place gives you a hard time with the zc dohc then just take your business elsewhere. now if you are dpfi with a d15b1/d15b2 and want to legally go mpfi the easy way, just use a zc sohc replacement longblock and use a d16a6 complete intake manifold with sensors and a pm6 ecu and you are good to go. |
Re: Engine websites??
so you can pass smog with a SOHC zc engine but not the DOHC right???
and that should just be a straight drop in? just drop it and connect everything do i need a different ECU and stuff or anything else i should know about before i drop get it?? |
Re: Engine websites??
also my D16a6 Transmission should just be a direct bolt on the the ZC engine right????
|
Re: Engine websites??
i wana find me a good price for a zc dohc swap for my ef si but idk were ived already had a b16a2 and a b18c1 i dnt wana deal with the dohc no more i wana take power out of a zc dohc.. or should i just boost my d16a6 fully rebuilt dynoed..??
