you should just get the complete d16y8 swap. you will need to wire for vtec

 

yes i now about the problem with the wiring to vtec engine, and i need alsow computer for that engine
but do you think that d16y8 is beter then the zc engine??

thank you

arik

 

yes since the zc is obd-0 and yes theres the rare obd-1, there will be more to wire with the zc then the y8

 

if you really want to make it stronger and faster go with option 3. b16.

 

I'm not sure what all engines were available in Israel, but as mentioned the D16Y8 1.6L SOHC VTEC or your equivalent of would be best. This will keep you from having to change the tranny, axles, etc. that is required with a B series swap. Do the SOHC VTEC swap and piece together a turbo setup and I'm sure you'll be pleased.

 

will you be doing the work yourself????

if so then you should understand just how hard it is to do this alone for the first time

if you are paying someone to do it then do it right the first time do not pay someone to put in a zc or d16 engine that is a waste of money and labor, just get the b16 but even still i would suggest a gsr b18c1

what i am trying to say is either do it right the first time and get something you will be very happy with and know the investment brought you joy then to spend a little bit less of money and just be kind of happy and not fully excited about your car

i am in the middle of my swap and i'm miserable because i realize that i should have just saved for a little bit longer and got the better engine

 

first i want to tell you all thank you for your respand, thanx.
now i want to swap to the d16y8 and piece together a turbo kit.

but now i have an idea and i hoop you like it

it is just a try to make it - i want to put a turbo kit on my d14 wath do you say??

it's just an idea to tets this eng maby it will drive nice just for now and if it wont work i'll go on the d16

i dont want to go on the b18 becuse it will make me have to swap ernest+ tren+exles and alut of uther stuf = more many !!!

thnak you and good neight

I'd say go for it because you don't really have anything to lose. If you tune it (even just a street tune with a wideband) with a program such as Uberdata, Hondata, etc. you should be safe as long as you don't go too high with the boost. Later on you'll be able to transfer the turbo kit over to the SOHC VTEC motor if you so choose to do the swap. You could also swap it over to a B series by changing the manifold and some minor downpipe and charge pipe mods.

 

hello
ok i decide to go on the turbo kit to my car

for now i have:

1. manifold from grady
2. turbo t3
and now i understand that i need those parts:

1. Apexi SAFC Super Air Flow Converter

wich i find in EBAY he

2. 450 cc injectors


3. intercoler i dont have a link but i think to put intercoler of dukato

4. "down pipe" i dont have

5. i need this parts as well to to supply the oil to the turbo




now i have som questions :

1. do you have this parts that i need include the turbo ana the manifold maby from here it cost cheaper then in israel.

2. if you have any thing that can halp me build that project i will be most thank you all.

i say turbo the d14 the ghettoest way there is, and than after it will blow swap it.


EDIT: or sell it.

Sunroof, is that custom?

 

that turbo wont spool at all on a d14. your best bet is to swap it.
