When i look up honda motor specs...some sites say the 96+ dx, cx, and lx have the d16y7 motor in it, which is right....but some sites say that those models have a d15b in it..what motor is that and why do some sites say that instead? they all have the same specs i think but just diff. codes sometimes

 

they are diff motors. 1.6L vs 1.5L. d15's are an older motor than the d16's.

 

96+ DX, CX, LX all have d16y7. 92-95 DX have d15b7.

 

oh ok..those sites mislead me then cause they say its in a 96+ dx...d15b is in 92-95 vtis or something right?

 

the d15s are from eg's

 

ok..thanks for straightening that out

 

Straight up "d15b" is a japanese motor.

 

i got a d15b7 swapping it for a jdm d15b ..becareful the d15b7 is non vtec wit about 110 ponies .then d15b is from japan stock wit 130 hp vtec.. has agressive cams good swap for a budget person ....my self

u dont want a dx-or cx cheap engine but good light weight chassi .

 

whats the expected 1/4 mile time for the d15b? would it be like the 92-95 si hatches like a 16.4?
