ok, i got my first hatch and its in the process of a swap! i have a d16z6 block with an a6 head ready to be put in. im just waiting on getting the new dizzy and mpfi intake mani.. got some old school prelude seats in though while ive been waitin around!

 

looks pretty clean. did you remove the back seats??

 

z6 block with a6 head??? it should be the other way around lol,hatch looks pretty clean tho

 

yep, the pic was taken halfway through but the original leather didnt match so im plannin on a rear seat delete so it matches a little better!

 

hahahaha thats what i thought! but the motor was all messed up so i had to hunt on craigslist and this guy had it for a reasonable price and he was only half an hour away so i jumped on it! ......but yea, ive read the write ups and i havent seen any with a non-vtec head, most have the vtec head. sooo any ideas on a dizzy?

 

try the junkyards

 

oh there arent good ones around here.. went to one that had a pony walking around, it was sketchy. i just meant what kind to use cuz my d15 fits right on but i think i read somewhere that because im switching to mpfi i need a dizzy thats meant for that.

 

jus get a a6 dizzy

 

thanks bro! i was actually just checkin out your thread earlier! its good you caught that hatch on the rebound! less work than the rex!

 

car looks pretty clean bro... get some more pics up lol... i like the seats... check out my thread i did the rear seat delete too and just laid the rug down...

 

ye i know right.i got it cause i like the hatchbacks better than the rex but i wanna keep my rex just no room for it so gotta get rid of it.i was like halfway done on my rex just was a bitch to find body parts lol

 

You obviously haven't looked in the FAQ because this is the first link under the D-Series section:

Your choice of dizzy will be dictated by which ECU you are going to use.

 

yea yea that was one of the first ones i read cuz its the exact same as what im workin with! the guy i got it from actually ordered it from a fella off here. it needed a new head gasket cuz the head wasnt torqued fully and ended up burning coolant, when i replaced the gasket i noticed that there wasnt an oil restrictor. the guy said that he didnt have any problems relating to this but should i be ok leaving it as is?

 

took some more pics. the block you can see that while the 4th piston is at tdc the 1st isnt.. and the head on the first cylinder there is a little worn around the edge where it was knockin.

 

thanks! yea im wanting to grab some plywood and wrap it in carpet so it looks more uniform but for now just pulled the bottom and folded the top down!

 

Man those valves look horrible, and whats the story with the 4 TDC and the 1 not so TDC. No bueno.

 

Hope those seats are mounted right

 

yep swapped them rails! i was a little impatient taking them off tho so the the plastic on the side and the plastic on the handles is no longer there..

 

lol i have no idea.. heres the story.. i had a 94 teg that was given to me for free after sitting for about 4 months and through a mean winter. the car ran before parked and was clean, no rust. my girls sister owned it and ran it off the road driving crazy so her parents paid off their car and after letting the teg sit gave it to me so it would get some use. went to turn the key and it would crank all day but wouldnt start so i replaced the plugs, wires, cap, rotor, dizzy, and even ecu. had a diagnostic ran after none of these worked and it came back as electrical and with all those parts being "new" they searched wires and nothing came of it. i traded for this hatch that had a rod knock and opened it up to find that the first cylinder wont move at all and the valves were worked. ive kept in touch with the guy a traded with and he put a new ignition coil on the teg and it fired right up. the dizzy i bought was 300 and came with a coil,icm, and crankshaft position sensor. i blame autozone for a bad dizzy!!!

 

^man that sucks that happened

 

clean car man good start.

 

thanks bro!! didnt plan on all of this and im currently baggin groceries so the progress may be slow but i got tired of thread jumpin everytime i ran into a problem so i figured id make it legit and set up an account

 

Never go to autozone! BAD BAD BAD, I work at a Sears and they're supposed to be our "first call" when it comes to parts. Every time we order something, its either the wrong thing or defective.

 

i know someone that made the same mistake. i wont mention any name though...
car looks good man

 

looks like a clean project.. good luck with it.
