Pretty obvious, z6 in a lighter shell will beat a slower y7 in a heavier shell.

Vtec for the win. No matter what. Take it out to the tracks and find out yourself. Unless you are a horrible driver.

Personally from experience the d16z6 would win. I wish the y7 was as fast, but lets face it. no amount of bolt ons would make it fast enough to beat the z6.
with the d16y7 having 98 stock hp vs the z6 about 130hp. there shouldnt even be a argument lol.

My dad has an SI delsol( d16z6) and i have a 96 ej hatch cx model( d16y7)
the delsol is way, way faster......man i love that delsol .lol.

Wow. This is ridiculous and stupid. Both are stock internally and slow why the hell are you even "racing" them, and on the street at that.

Read the FAQ and don't post stupid things that aren't needing to be posted. How is this still open?

kids like you are the reason why people think d-series are slow... why bother with stupid question seriously...2,300lbs 125 bhp vs 2,700 l06 bhp--- roughly? you can do math right? most bolt ons give you little to no power gains on a completely stock car.

He said he wanted to race on the track, not the street. Also, what is your definition of fast? And why should we only race cars you consider fast?

Ok for my input. When I started out in this Honda game, I had a 97 Del sol w/ a y7 bonestock. Threw in i/h/e bolt ons and thought I was the biz until I got whooped by a eg hatch w/ a d15b and the same bolt ons. Installed a stage 1 clutch, lightweight flywheel, MSD system (no difference lol), and some azenis. Me and my homie w/ a ej1 z6 and bolt ons, went to Irwindale and I got him by a fender.

In this case,you got it for sure.

B-Series a gas hog? I guess against a D-series you could call it one, but in all honesty you get awesome gas mileage with any 4 cylinder.
