- Mon Oct 13, 2008 8:24 pm #74147 I was just wondering where I could buy forged pistons for the d15? Because eBay doesn't have any forged ones and/or they are selling the ones for d16/zc and stating that they can fit d15 too.

Thanks in advance! :thumb:

- Thu Nov 27, 2008 7:48 am #80598 Make sure you get them for your D15 Engine.

Different D15's are Different, the D15z1 for example has a 137mm rod length like the D16, however the smaller rod Journal size of the D15.

Do your homework before buying.

- Thu Nov 27, 2008 10:04 am #80605 Yeah, I'm trying to do my research..

I found some Eagle rods and Vitara pistons online, but I'm not yet ready to build..

And my engine is a D15b8, so I'm not gonna worry about that D15z1.

Anymore suggestions on where to find pistons/rods will be greatly appreciated. :thumb:

Eagle rods and vitaras are a great, cheap set up.

I would suggest swapping cylinder heads though. 8 valve :thumbdown:

- Thu Nov 27, 2008 7:32 pm #80645 Oh my bad, I was looking on the internet for the engine codes. LOL! I thought USDM and CDM had the same on the CX, but i just saw that the CX here in Canada had the D15b7. :lol:

Well, as all of you know I have a sedan but recently my buddy offered me his hatchback. Just straight trade for the bodies and I get to keep all my mods from the sedan. The only downside is it has more rust than the sedan. :cry:
