i have a 92 civic cx with a d15b7 out of a 94 dx i was just wondering if anyone knows if these rods will work with stock pistons? according to all the specs ive found stock b7 rods are 134 mm and these are 134.5 mm thanks ahead for any info

Don't even have to look. No.

 

stock pistons are made to be pressed in. most aftermarket rods are made to be mated with a floating style wrist pin. so no they will not work with stock pistons

 

alight would they work with pistons from a d16a6? ive heard using those pistons will also give more compression?

 

You're not listening. That's a stock, as in OEM, piston. They will not work.

Don't understand why you just don't get a piston/rod combo.

 

actually i am listening excuse me for not knowing to much about pistons and rods but these pistongs have pins

Ummm...if you put a6 pistons in you would DROP compression from 9.28:1 to 8.14:1

 

So use those pistons with those rods. OEM will not work.

 

and with those wrist pins you see NO wrist pin clips .. those are OEM style to be pressed on a Stock OEM rod.

 

would i be better staying with stock. type pistons or are there better ones thatll give more compression?

 

What are you even trying to do and why? Budget?

 

I don't know....would you?

We don't have the slightest clue to as what you want to accomplish.

All I got so far, is you want rods, and to increase compression......

 

I'm going to guess here, that the OP believes that more compression equates to more horsepower and that, on a D-series, this will net him some significant power gains.

If you try to build the block, be it by way of stock mis-matched hardware or aftermarket rods and pistons to bump up compression, you better be ready to drop some money on a tune to maximize your new hardware.

 

im just trying to get parts to build a stong enough b7 lower end to have a z6 head and some boost and yes im.on a budget so far ive got all the gaskets the z6 head intake and throttle body now im just working on trying to get the best lower end internals that will be reliable to drive every day

 

i drove my stock z6 boosted on 10psi on a gt28r for 2-3 years with no problems... i went alil long on an oil change and spun a rod... as long as you maintaine the motor it will last... for the money your about to blow id just buy a back up z6 and call it a day...
