ive did some searching and i cant find a solid answer

what i need to know is

is the VX timing belt and the water pump
the same as the d15b vtec, or would i use the z6??

all the post i found on google its a bunch of bashing haters arguing with each other

so thanks
AJ

i know one of my friends had the dealer order one from japan.. other than that i have no clue if any the others work for it..

When you do Mini-me's with a d15b7 bottom end a d16z6 head you want to use a d16z6 timing belt.

ok so a all d15b vtec, id would need the vx timing belt and the vx water pump?

D16z6 and D15z1 water pumps ARE the same

Not sure if the JDM D15B is the same as those, but I would lean toward yes.

THe D16z6 and D15z1 timing belts have different part #'s from Honda.

You want to use the water pump for the block you are using.

just had to scroll over a few pages..

I made the mistake of using the z6 timing belt and now my engine squeals each time I start it. So the z6 belt does work but its really annoying @ start up. I later found out that the vx belt was the one I should have purchased instead
