The d16z6 head gasket should work fine.

^^slightly. d15bs use all the same parts (for the most part) as a z6 if i'm not mistaken.

Are you sure. I used a Z6 headgasket on my D15Z1 and it overheated on the highway after I put the headgasket on. I've heard that the D15B's use a lot of the same components as a D15Z1 also.

y8 headgasket is cheaper than the z6 gasket at most dealerships i think

so yes i would go with the y8.

they are basically the same thing, but the y8 has a coupel poinless tabs on it
