I am new with imports. I just bought a 95 Civic Ex with a D16Z6 (sohc vtec) motor and I am absolutely loving it. Besides having all the belts and water pump replaced, the only thing I have bought for it so far is a AEM short ram intake. Could anybody give me advice on what to start doing to this motor and what parts to buy. Thank You

 

"Search" is your friend. But i would guess it all depends on what your intentions for the car are? Auto-x, drag, etc. But the next mods should most likely be header (unless your gonna go turbo), hi-flow cat, & exhuast. Jus my $0.02

 

I also have a D16z6.When i first got it i immediatly put i/h/e.What really woke up the motor was when i took it to get chipped.My advice take it to get chipped.It cost me only 100 bucks which was worth it when i punched it the first time.

 

I've heard that putting a bigger cam in will give me a good boost. Is it worth the money or should I just my money for a B16 swap.

 

personally i'd go with header and exhaust next. if you really want to change the camshaft but dont have the money for tuning, swap it for a d15b cam as it is slightly more aggressive. best bang for your buck would be to go turbo on the d though. gl and be safe

Exactly, you're going to get most power from a turbo and it won't cost that much if you shop around. Just push a safe amount of boost so you don't blow your motor.
