Correct me if i'm wrong but the only differance in the z6 and ZC is just the litre and displacement and maybe the.
z6=1.6 ZC=1.5

Im talking about the 1.6L sohc vtec ZC compared to the D16Z6

 

A ZC is a DOHC 1.6l non-vtec.

Nah theres two ZCs 1 sock 1 dock

 

What's sock? Did not know this. Well, now I do. The Docks are decent. My neighbor across the street has a home-made turbo DOHC ZC that I think he ran a high 13 with (CRX).

There are several engines that were stamped "ZC"; all of them are JDM 1.6 liter D-series. Cam configurations were SOHC, DOHC, and SOHC VTEC. The SOHCs and DOHCs were available with either dual carbs or PGM-FI (pre-OBD and OBD-1), while the SOHC VTEC was OBD-1 PGM-FI only.

 

Nobody cares that you know everything about Honda's j/k. I haven't seen you for a while. It's nice to have someone here to keep the peace.

My apologies. I always thought the commonly referred to ZC was the SOHC nonvtec, or the DOHC used as a swap most of the time in EF civics, crxs and such.

What some people may refer to as a ZC in this forum is generally a SOHC Vtec which I always take to be a D15B.

There is alot of confusion when it comes to this, I think that the poster needs to be more clear as to what engines he is talking about, and I need to make sure I don't just on someone else too quick.

 

im just looking for the difference between the "D16Z6" and the "1.6L SOHC VTEC ZC"

 

theres a twin cam non vtech zc then there is a single cam vtech zc, both are jdm. the d16z6 is almost exactly the same just the jdm single cam zc has a little more compression

If there is any difference, it is usually either the pistons or the cam. Not very likely that anything else is different. I've never seen anyone confirm a difference though. The two are so close that any difference is really negligible.

 

ok some1 needs to finish all these threads about this... theres 3 ZC's
a dohc NON-VTEC (my friend has one)
a sohc non-VTEC
and a sohc VTEC (i currently have one)

i had a z6 to. to my knowledge theirs like little to no difference in the z6 and ZC VTEC. i took the head off my ZC VTEC and it has p28 pistons exactly the same as z6 and if u dont believe that i had one of my ZC's pistons cracked and the rings were all fucked so i have a z6 piston in a ZC VTEC block the rods seem identicle... if theres anything different it maybe like valves or a cam or something like that but its a P28 motor it has P28 stamped on the block and isnt a z6 a p28 too. Oh and please DO NOT REPLY TO THIS AND TELL ME THERES NOT A SOHC ZC VTEC because im so tired of people telling me i bought a mini-me i know what i have and its not some japaneses kid's mini-me shipped over here.

 

thanks alot cleared it up for me
