Default D15B The same as D16y8? Is This Price Right?

Whats goinz on fellazzz, i'm swapping out my old d16y7, it has like 237k miles, still runs good, but i want a fresh start, and i'm getting the cash together while i blow this engine, now i hear that a d15b = d16y8, except that d16 is just usdm and d15b is jdm, and i can get that d15b for $1000 with shipping complete swap, is that good deal? and is it really d15b=d16y8?

Nothing really special about the D15B (JDM 92-95 Civic VTi) except that it has the most aggressive stock cam. $1000 is way too much to lose 0.1L, stick with the Y8.

Of course, there are many D15B out there with different specs. If you choose that route, I hope you get the one from the 92-95 Civic VTi.

don't pay $1000 for a d15b lol, who's trying to sell that to you? head to our very own honda market place and I'm pretty sure you'll find one wayyy cheaper
