ive just purchased an emanage but honestly i dont think ill go with a cam
It's just for fun,not for power,I mean the power increse will be a bonus but if it was power I was after I would have put the b18c in.
So just looking for a funner engine to play with.
I reckon I'll loose low end power with the new exhaust until it's tuned.I could be wrong but at least I'm prepared for that.The tuning will bring it back if it is lost.
out of curiousity has anyone increased timing by rotating the dizzy? i did it last week and theres nicer torque down low i reckon
Changing the dizzy angle? Beez done it
does the emange increase preformance or does it decrease the life of the engineQuote:

hey guys, I was wondering if anyone has a bang for buck set up for around 2.5-3k? the car will be a station car. it is a 99 ek gli sedan granny spec and am itching for a turbo setup after hearing a turbo wind up ( havent heard one in years)
is it possible for 3k? will i need to get a ecu tune? im not sure about the power output on these and wont be expecting anything big but will be happy with 100-120kw atw ( is that too much or a d series). should i go kit or custom build? etc
Yeah,U can have a tinker with it,I'm running the MSD ignition system so it allows for 2 degree advancemant.Quote:

anyone replaced their ICM here? if so how hard is it to remove to rotor screw?
Easy as,just get a big phillips head,honestly not hard.
Thanks for the info :thumbsup:
ill buy one next week and try to install it, if i cant ill just get them to change it at work :)
It's easy as to change it,it's just the dizzy plug + the 2 wires that connect to the ICM.Just put it back together how it came apart (easy).
Give the 4 contact points a clean too,use a screwdriver to chip the carbon off then a little sand,sand the edge of the rotor too.
http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=119576
Thanks for the help Beeza :thumbsup:
no need to sand the rotor for me, it was replaced 15000kms ago with the coil, dizzy cap, leads and plugs (before i bought it :)) dunno why they didnt replace the ICM lol
Your welcome,still good to give it a sand to get the carbon off.
Anyone done a rear engine mount on a d-series before,benny?
help?
was considering a skunk2 IM. thoughts?
d16y4 right?
No,U cant,I bought a skunk2 IM and b16 TB and was gonna do it but learnt I couldn't.
This explains it best:
I wouldn't bother with a ebay 'custom manifold' either,more than likely it flows crap.Quote:

U can get the TB bored out to 60mm for $195,U can port match the IM yourself with a dremel easily because it does not need to be perfect just larger than 60mm,but would U get gains from it???
Nothing is impossible,I mean Dyno Dave got ricer's d16y4 running on Hondata!!!!
http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=61690
Anything is possible.
Just need the help.
Greddy e-manage will be a hell of a lot simplier though.
Great gains can be had with an aftermarket IM and TB,sucks we cant use it.
Here's an example of a ebay d-series IM:
http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l2...2/img3045w.jpg
If U compare Honda's design to this,this is absolutely crap.Looks all BIG and SHINY though!!!
I cannot see air 'flowing' though this design and I feel it's a very poor design.U would be better off spending the $200 on boring out the y4 IM.
Yonas can get all the port work done.Bear in mind,there's port work and there's port work,so feel it out first if U go that route.
ive decided against the manifold. dont like the reported gains versus the price of them.
ill just wait for my emange to arrive and go from there :)
+ a cam :)
There are great gains to be had with a bigger IM + TB.
so no turbo kits are good for 2k?
I wouldn't say that, my bud OEK40 on bc and here has just that and it gets impressive numbers, everything was bought from china kits on ebay in his car
WOW,a K40! :)
lol nah no k40, biggest Ive seen is Tim's 2.15L but have heard of 2.6L kits
yea Sherwin's lil ek1 sedan with the ebay kit is bullet proof, built is years ago running over 10psi daily driven and raced every blue moon
If you're getting a $2g turbo kit from ebay it's like flipping a coin basically. It might be a decent turbo where you can just buy a decent dump pipe and stuff and just use what seems decent but you won't make good power with reliability as you would with a solid brand.
But that said, sometimes you get lucky and make some nice cheap power with cheap kits :)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/D-Ser...Q5fAccessories
what u guys think of this
wow that is an impressive package. quality is usually 50/50 though. could go either way.Quote:

"FREE NEW LAMBO DOOR KIT WITH BUY IT NOW PRICE $899!!!!!"
i lol'd
looks like a decent price for the kit but unsure about quality
I'm no mechanic and all those pieces makes my head hurt lol
But I've seen that package on Ebay before and thought it looked good. You could always just replace the turbo or dump pipe
Those exh manifolds are prone to cracking around the welds, so your better off with a cast iron item. The kit has no dump pipe, so your going to have to get that fabricated.Quote:

just curious to see what popel thought i dont want do turbo on my car, next car i get will get turbo factoryQuote:

yes itll work mate. Are you running a Y1 ecu? all D16 blocks are similar, so you can use the Y4 block with Y1 head, as long as your not using the Y4s ecu. gearbox will be fine itll bolt straight up....
Well im planning to get one of those kits some time this year. Im not going for lots of power, as beeza said previously i just want something fun to drive, & stun some unexpecting ppl. Not alot of turbo civics here where i live either so i guess its the unique factor aswell. Not like 'oh there goes another civic with a monster tacho & fart can'....Quote:

Kinda, im trying to be as budget as possible. Last night i came across a DIY piggyback for the Y4 ecu, so now instead of using the AFC hack i can tune it properly myself.
Turbo kit shipped from USA ~$1000aud
CA18DET injectors (370cc) ~$100aud
Piggyback ~$500aud
I may even get a walbro intank pump. For now anyway i will leave the exhaust how it is, its a 2.25" now anyway. 3" exhaust later on, press-bent so its much better on the wallet.....
I've just got other crap to do first like the gearbox, new clutch & lightweight flywheel, new ignition leads, one of those ground power kits & i may be able to sneek the piggyback in so its outta the 'to do' list....
big list mate and plans start saving lolQuote:

What kit? Thats way to cheapQuote:

Plan now is to pull out the d16 from the ED3 and put it into the ED6, convert to manual & EFI.
Why bother? Because i remember running my car ages ago and it was fun to drive, very rev happy. With the car smashed it left a void that i needed to fulfill. Plus i wanted to learn more about some hands on work, i know a bit of theory. My mechanical skills so far include and oil and filter change haha.
So far i've disconnected most of the parts from the engine bay, harness, hoses etc, took the radiator out. If all is well the old auto box and d15b will be out this weekend.
i find it funny how STILL any ebay turbo kit fall to come with any sort of engine management. Surely if they wanted to make something more attractive they would include an EMS before lambo doors or oil coolers
so dont get an ebay kit?
Honestly any no name brand kit you usually get on ebay is mass produced low quality shit that will only cause you problems in the future. Spend the money on something that has a prooven background and you will be much happier in the longrun
There are certain ways to tell the quality of a non-branded turbo. Auto Salon did a feature on this in January I think.
Generally the idea is that any money you save buying a cheap turbo only increases the risk of problems later.
hey guys just a quick question. i want to replace my gearbox from a D16 to D15 for a shorter ratio, but the problem is that i dont want to spend too much because my clutch is cable. Do you guys know a specific D15 gearbox that is cabled so that i don't need to convert it to hydraulic.
aren't most D15 gearboxes cable?
what car do you have? might help.Quote:

Something to do.
Grab a spare head for $50 and port it with a $30 dremal from bunnings:
http://www.d-series.org/forums/engin...rted-head.html
The one on the bottom of page 5 is what ya wanna do.Ya dont wanna change the shape.U just want to open up the intake and exhaust ports a bit,4 on each side,take off the carbon and a little bit of metal,just a bit to simply open it up a bit,not to change the shape and disrupt the flow.
Mill a bit off the head aswell to bump up the compression a bit,$80-100.
Replace the head gasket,valve seals and uprgrade to a bisimoto cam,then swap it all in.
While your swapping the head in U can use the dremel to port out the Intake manifold ports a bit and do the same with the headers,wont take long.
Also bore the TB out yourself best ya can with a file,I did yesterday,will post pics soon.It's still 56mm but flows better.
All this will cost $700.
This is a GREAT cheap way to gain power,to port out the head as described above without the fear of mucking anything up.
The downside to doing all this is that your fuel bill will go up 20%
In the states guys are going from 44-46mpg to 36-38mpg.More air = more fuel.It takes fuel to make more power.
