im hoping you boys could help me with this, i have a 2nd gen crx Si & @ the moment ive got the Australian D-series D16a8 DOHC installed, but what im needing to know is "are the manifolds the same set-up size flange as the JDM ZC dohc????" i ask this because, i have a mate with a turbo kit for sale on his ZC dohc and i want to be 100% sure that it is a direct bolt-on for me, therefore saving me to bye a new turb manifold....
many thanks

 

i've heard that the d16a8 IS the ZC in australia (where you are from), either way, d series engines have the same bolt pattern for the exhuast, so it should work, good luck!

 

You'll be fine with the ZC turbo kit.

Here in America we even use the D16Z6 turbo kit for the ZC, of course we have to port out the exhaust manifold a tiny bit.

But a ZC should line up perfectly with the A8's exhaust ports.

thanks alot
you guys always seem to help me out in a flash, much appreciated...
ill let you know how the kit goes in near future..

got another one for you, ill be wanting/needing JE pistons & some crower rods to strenght'n my internals, so > "are the D16a8 dohc & the ZC dohc pistons & rods compatable/universal with each other" ???

thanking you

 

ZC, d16a8, d16a9 are all IDENTICAL motors, the ZC is JDM and the a8 and a9 are EDM.
