I have read all of the Mini Me write ups and i haven't seen any info at all about a D15b Vtec head on a D15b7 block, so if anybody knows anything about this Mini Me than please help me out. I really just want to Know what timing belt i should use, I have already purchased a D16z6 timing belt because i think thats the right one but i don't know. Any help is greatly appreciated. THANKS

 

Well, there's really only two belts you have to concern yourself with. The 1.6L and the 1.5L. Your safest bet is just to buy both and then return one.

 

I disagree, since the resulting motor will still have 1.5L of displacement. Since the D15B VTEC is pretty much a VX block with a Si head, and you use the VX timing belt when you change it on the D15B, I would suggest ordering the DX belt for your application.

This is only an educated guess, as I only have this information to go from:

Maybe it can still help you. Good luck!

EDIT: I meant VX belt

Hrm, I thought you needed a VX timing belt with a mini-me swap.

Oh well, maybe that's only if ur using a Z6 head. Or maybe I'm wrong.

 

According to that article that BlackoutVTi posted it says to use a VX belt so thats what I would go with.

 

VX belt with z6 tensioner

or try using a b7 tensioner with a z6 belt

 

it uses the vx belt

 

Initial post fixed; meant to say VX belt.

That's my guess.

Since the d15b head is the same casting as the z6, and you need to use the z6 timing belt when you do a b7/z6 mini-me, I'm going to go with z6 belt and b7 tensioner.

 

Thanks for all the help guys, I'm going to go with the z6 belt since i already have it and i will use the b7 tensioner.
