ebay kits are okay as a base to start from - but alot of the parts will need to be replaced with better quality stuff
the turbo manifolds are generally the biggest problem - they are pretty crap
you will need either a standalone ECU or some chipping gear to run and tune the setup
if the engine hasnt been well maintained in its life expect to see some premature wear real quick
Hey guys, wondering would a B series throttle body fit D series?
Im in HK right now and parts of Honda here are so cheap...so planning to get some bits back to Aus...
Still thinking of what else I could put in my suitcase tho...
and could my D16Y1 runs better with the ECU of the JDM D15B VTEC?
any obd1 throttle body is compatible (eg f series,d series, b series) u wont notice much gain in a stock motor even if u port match the intake manifold to it. if the ecu from the d15b vtec was better wouldnt u think they would use it stock lol?
right tho....was just thinking the JDM one has different vtec engaging point and stuff...might be able to run better in it's 1.6 litre brother....
Is it normal for my d16y1 to shoot smoke as i accelerate to 3krpm on gear one? and also when i hit vtec
white smoke? no, piston rings or valve seals on there way out...Quote:
