Default What is my Engine

I have a JDM ZC SOHC VTEC
The head says it is a 93 and it says p08

I looked up p08 and that is a d15b code

Does this mean my car is a 1.5l
because i was told when i bought it that it was a 1.6l

They said it was a jdm version of the d16z6, and that the jdm version had a more aggressive cam.

Is there any way i can find out what the engine is 1.5 or 1.6

the D15B is the "JDM version" of our D16Z6, it just has .1 fewer liters and a more aggressive cam. Same appx. power output, though. No worries .

Ive heard of teh d15b7 or sumthin like that. ITs true, the JDM d15 is a lot better than our d16 (someone correct me if Im wrong). It supposed to get like over 130 hp or something, its almost like an LS without the torque, if you REALLY got that engine, your lucky, take a picture of the engine code on the front of the tranny for us and of the engine.

PO8 is the code of the head, the PO8 head from my understanding is shared with the D16Z6, SOHC ZC Vtec (which is the one you have, 1.6), and the D15b.

D15B7 is the 102hp DX/LX motor. The 128hp D15B vtec is just a hair (3hp) more powerful than the US D16Z6.

For the D15b7 motors, I see them all marked as saying ~100HP? Am I mistaking it for the non-VTEC version?

actualy, the d15b is not the JDM version of the d16z6. The jdm version of the d16z6 is the D16A, its the same exact motor as the the d16z6, just with a different stamp on it.

The d15b and the d16z6 are close though...

There is NO zc vtec.
Check your engine code,it sounds like you have a d15b which is a JDM motor and is vtec.If it is a Zc it will be stamped Zc.If it is a d15 it will be stamped d15
