Need help on gearbox to D15B VTEC

[rorym]

I am playing with an idea for a new hillclimb car and need some experts advice. Can a D15B JDM bolt to a 96-01 CRV gearbox?.I was thinking you guys might know all the box numbers and if thats possible. I am looking at making a City Pro AWD 9"slicks etc...
Thanks in Advance.

pretty sure this cant happen...what car you using for this? Dseries vtec would be slow man.......weak even.

go with the city AWD running gear and use B20 block and gear box out of crv and then build the b20 up with a B16a head....that would be unbeatable...

I know a B16A bolts up to the CRV box...they do the conversions to Minis in the states. Its for..as stated a 84 City Pro sports sedan....similiar to my ZOT except I want to AWD it. Reading the bulid here one one with 130kw out of the D series in about 500kg stripped out..I doubt it will be slow.

b16b might be a better plaform then or B18c

[rorym]

Wont fit unless I cut through the firewall......which may be an option to get the B16A in.

No. Crv is a b series, can't bolt a b series up to a d series afaik.

B16b is the ek9 (type r civic) motor.

[rorym]

Actually just found one...but for $4800 for it and $750 for the D15.....think I can up the power on the D15 and still have $1000s in my pocket.

for track you wont find a more reliable engine...that you can keep stock D15's are weak man...4800 is resonable for the engine....my crx for sale I paid 4k for my engine alone...B series are worth every cent

[rorym]

You are missing the point...your CRX weights 800+ kg...

yeah imagine the bullshit speed of that B16b in your car rediculous!!

[trism]

If you want to stay d series, and be awd, you'll need to get the drive line out of either an awd wagonvan, or an awd ef sedan.

[rorym]

Might be easier to get the B16 and make it fit....its a race car after all....now just need to find one..

Hill climb. B18B or B20 with either B16 box or ITR box! Would be sick!

[TheSaint]

why would u change the gearbox on a D15b vtec engine? - they have the best gear ratios u can possible get for a D series gearbox lol

D15b vtec, D16y1/D16z and the D16y8 are the best options for D-series

going up from that you are looking at B16a, B16b, B18c2 than B18cR

depends on the chassis though - the D series are ALOT easier to fit into a smaller car like a mini or honda city or the older (1st n 2nd gen) civics
they are very underestimated as well

[rorym]

Because the D series boxes dont have a 4WD option...like a CRV box on a B series....well not as common anyway..

[TheSaint]

ah ok i see what you mean - it would most likely be easier to put in a B-series mated to a CRV box if you can

other than that you will have to track down an old D-series AWD box
