I'm still screwing with the ZC before I get it installed and was wondering which timing belt I need to use that would be a USDM equivalent. I called the local Honda Dealership and all they said was they could "try" a belt from a '91 prelude, a '96 civic, or a 92-95 del sol.

Does anyone know which belt goes on the ZC?

Starting to think ZC will be "interesting" to find parts for.

 

wich ZC are you talking about there are several. It matters.

 

try here to start.....You will need more than just the belt anyway. http://www.thezcresource.com/

Thanks for the link. That really helps out.

Btw, will I need to swap any pullies?

 

no pullies, but do yourself a favor, do front and rear oil seals while you are in there and a new water pump, and maybe even the tensioner for the timing belt. Oils seals are a bitch once the motor is in, and Pump , belt or tensioner fail you will be hating life. Do a new clutch pilot bearing and throwout bearing too. Far easier than doing it in 4 months under the car. Cam seals I would only do if they leak, they are easy to get to.

 

I've got a bunch of ZC parts lying around. I'm not sure if you want to go with brand new stuff ordered from Japan but if not IM me (screen name JEDubz) and I'll look over what I got.

 

Used timing belts are always a bad idea. Is saving $25 on a timing belt of $50 on a water pump worth trashing the valves against the pistons if it fails?

 

I always thought you used the timing belt for the D16A1/D16A3 for 86-89 Integras since that's basically a ZC engine.
