My car will now be much more JDM. :thumb:

When I went to fix my rod knock when putting my car up on ramps I heard the rods actually hit the block, Therefore decided to Give in and get a new Engine.

After looking over craigslist and not seeing anything promising I found my import shop and got this Engine. for the same price I could have got the OBD2 D15B with 3 Stage Vtec but decided for ease of install to get the OBD1 Version.

I hope to pull my d16z6/Tranny, Then Bolt up the tranny to the D15b and Install it Sunday.

i was thinking the same, thought it was very weird it would have that valve cover with those specs

also that intake mani looks like the vx one, its a lot smaller then the Z6 and jdm D15b that's similar to the Z6

I thought it was odd myself. However the block was a D15B.
I just checked out the head code, its 07, the vx head, not 08, the z6 head. I will call up the import shop in the morning. And see about getting the right engine.

But all of the JDM D15's will only have D15b on the block, even the non-vtec that's similar to the D15b7 here will still say D15b on the block

Noone there spoke that good of english, they didn't understand the difference bewteen vtec-e and Vtec. They gave me a full refund, However that leaves me needing a new engine. or atleast a new engine block to use while I fix this one.

:thumbdown:
hmotorsonline is sold out of Jdm D15b Vtec's. I need to find a good reputable place online to get one. or just man up and buy the B16 swap I have been wanting for a while.

- Fri Feb 20, 2009 1:13 am #97593 I pulled the Oil pan and was going to find out what rods I need, In the process of doing so I found out my Water pump is about ready to crap out on me as well. :thumbdown: its leaking alot of antifreeze.

After finding out what bearings I need and tired of having oil and antifreeze drip on me I decided to call it a day.

I Will be pulling my D16z6 and rebuilding it for my Sedan. I still want to do my V6 swap, It will have to wait a few weeks until pay day.

I am very tempted currently to just swap in another D16, or even a B16 as I don't feel upto having to fabricate everything. I just want to drive my Coupe.

I LOVE purple, but I think a darker purple looks better than the stock purple faded out. :D
