How can i get a D15 into 11 or 12s in a 1st gen crx?? how much is this projest goin to cost me? any help would be great.

 

its probably not possible. and even so, why would you want to? is it because of that guy on the idrc tour? good lord, just go b-series and keep ur car street legal.

 

i mean it would cost so much damn money to do this it really wouldn't be worth it when you can save yourself some major cash and start off with a higher horsepower motor.

 

 

i have a d15 im my rex and believe me i would love to make it run that but lets face it its almost impossible just drop in a b series and then its possible

 

Building up a D15/D16 is not for everyone. Alot of people knock it down because its not the "easiest" way to make power. You can just buy a B series and theres so much parts for it, you dont even have to think on what to get.. all you need is money and everything is there for you to run 12's easily with a B motor.

The D series, takes more time and patience. IT doesnt necesarrily cost more to make it fast compared to a B series motor. Its just not common and you are on your own on this one in designing a good motor.

I have been a fan of D series motors for a long time and I still build B series for customers and friends. ITs just so easy to put together parts for like a B16/B18. Right now, Bisi is hitting 10.9's allmotor with his D15. We are in the planning stages of my own SOHC on building the Fuel injected version of Bisi's 10 sec motor. He has been pushing me for years to go all out and build up my SOHC. Now my chief mech. and the rest of the crew are taking on task to be the 1st fuel injected D series in the 10's.

Like I said, its not for everyone and you can flame all you want on how much its going to cost. All I can say is the project wont even cost more than most peoples Turbo build up or allmotor setups here on this board.

Wil
Oh and we're not building this to try to be the best out there. The allmotor class is already deep in the mid 10s. Its just a personal goal of mine. and to be different.

but you have to admit it does take more chee$e to make a d series run the same as a b series

 

bisi's car is RI-*******-DICULOUSLY stripped and would NEVER be streetable. there IS a reason why honda developed it DOHC motors.

 

i'm not hating it really i'm just saying that to me it doesn't seem logical. Plus if he is gonna have a shop do all his work it will be more expensive than you yourself doing it

 

BISI = 10 sec...1.5 sohc non vtec 2nd gen CRX. anything is possible.

 

didnt you read what i said? his car is NOT streetable, not even close by a longshot. and his plans are to get rid of that motor and go dohc anyways.

 

ridicoulously stripped?

i didnt know this was about street legal setups.
sorry

oh he was planning to go DOHC?
he tell you that?

i agree but how much $$ did it cost to do that?

 

you can get a D15 carbed into the 11's for less than $5000.00

 

i'm not saying that i don't believe you....................well yes i am i just wanna see the proof on that.

 

lol...im sure it would be cheaper on a b sreies

 

Well according to cops in CA, most bolts ons make your car not street legal, wow BISI is coming ot the DOHC side?

 

wow, thats great and all. but why? why why why? to be different?

 

i think it would be cool to say you have a d15 and smoke everyone

 

it would be cool but i'm just asking how you can do that for only 5k

plus this is probably you doing the work, but who is to say this kid won't take it somewhere. I believe that if he takes it somewhere then it would be more than 5k

 

im wondering the same thing

 

and even still the motor will never be as reliable are as easy to run as a b series. not to mention the fact that the motor is being pushed to its absolute limits and that it will only truley be fast in a car that wieghs NOTHING.

 

carbs $500 twm manifold $300
Fuel system $200
Built block $2000
Head work with cam, cam gear, etc $1600
clutch $300.00
These are regular prices, if you have hookups, its even cheaper.

Remember a carbed setup is real cheap.


Why Be different? because liek you.. who picked a B motor. you're just another fish in a big sea. you wont stand out. and you'll just blend in with all the other B series.
I dont know man, its just preference and the fact that you acutally have to learn about the D motor. WIth the B series, its all given.. too easy. TO me 90% of the fun is learning to build the motor.

yes but what about the labor for all that? and the tuning involved and dyno days and all for that. maybe building the motor for 5k i can see now but making sure it runs right goes over 5k

 

ok considering you work in a shop and you can do all that work yourself its not gonna cost that much
