lol engineers cost lots of money $$$$~
yer true dat.... wats needed for engineers? brake upgrade, sussy upgrade what else?
Really just the front brakes but there's no way I'd be roll'n with stock sussy on my power lol
This what I passed
http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=78487
so make sure have no PODDY? lol wtf...
hmmmm..... im planning to boost my b16a in the near future, considering i have a gli and the rear brakes r drums i should upgrade them to discs to get a engineers yer?
true. crazy not to have the handling and the brakes for a b16.Quote:
Yup you'll need F&B brakes upgraded
I would say you should do it anyway with you B16 power upgrade
faster then any N/A d series.Quote:
b16 isnt that powerful lol
here we go with the jokes. i love all honda motor whether it be a D, B, K etc accept carby lol. haters can go lick my left nut
n/a d series is wicked!!! in a slow way lol.
wickedly slow.. hahaha nah its a trusty daily and id take a d series over any other similar spec'd engine..
btw, hey beeza, howd u get that xforce onto ur sedan? new b-pipe? cos im thinkin of buying one and i got stock piping.. =( (dun wanna buy new pipes just yet)
The piping is heaps cheap.Just take it to a muffler shop and they will fab it up,it should be cheap as.Don't let em' rip ya off...
I got my header,hi-flow cat,muffler and he had to use a bit of piping installed for $180
the JDM d15 box with LSD is overrated. Stock, clutch type LSD = single spinner in no time... OBX LSD ftw.
ne1 no were i can get a d-series box from? i dont wanna have to pay 1300 for rebuild....
sweet cheers beeza :)
kazam im sure u can find some around the wreckers or on here.. theyre quite common i hear
D with SC FTW!!!
What's SC SINISTR?
supercharger?
thats my edumacated guess.
Super Kook maybe? hehe
i probably get less cop attention than NA cos i have a quieter exhaust, but generally cops not hassle hondas too much in melb.. like come on its only a 1.6L 4cyl.. nothing like a 5L v8 etc. :p also yeh i get that "what the?" look when i cruise around the city etc
engineers cert isnt worth it here in melb, too much money for it + epa test, cos you can still get done for it and get another rwc with another emissions test to clear it.
I plan on running an injected d in my eg soon.. Ive been rolling around in my carby eg for a while now but i find it to lack in power around the 6-8k rev range.. I drove my friends eg with the injected d in it and i found it to be a lot more enjoyable at high revs.
I have no intentions of running boost for the simple fact that N/A is Best! :p
Hey all. Great thread this one. I am a noob here, but had my ED6 for about 12 months now. It is completely stock atm as i have other projects going on too.
I am a Cylinder Head reconditioner by trade, and was just wondering if there's anything people have done to a D15B4 head to get a little extra power. I am thinking of match porting it, and maybe even welding up the combustion chamber to raise compression, and getting a cam grind. Has anyone had any success doing any of this?
On top of that getting some headers/extractors and 2" exhaust fitted, for extra flow and a fatter sound.
Also, i need to change the timing belt in the next few weeks, and i was wondering if someone could post a link up on how to time one of these engines.
Thanks heaps, Riley.
i read somewhere long ago that there was this ED or another model before it that had a sohc vtec motor and ran somwhere in the 12seconds? maybe it was a honda city lols i dunno so dont quote me on it but if u do find the thread, throw the link in here.
from memory it think it weighed 600kg? with the sohc vtec motor
hey guys
this thread is gonna be my new home lol

thats it... its okay i guess... still a few things i wanna do looks wise.
how u gonna check it out in person? im in perth ahhaha... i wanna respray my car too...
I think a dark tint or similair on the headlights and amber corners and (cant see the taillights) match up the tailights.
I have polished rim rims aswell,I love em' but I can see how I could be over them soon though....
How about black side mirrors???
yeh i want some amber corners but find any hey... i also wanna get 15 inch rims next... hopefully some lightweight ones.
Yeah,missed that,15's Fa-sure!
I used to drive a 2005 Honda Civic Vi. I think it had a D17 with VTEC. All i can say is free revving (like crazy) but it also gives you a sense like it was going to last forever no matter how bad you treat it. Never driven any other D series engines but my only impression :(. I've now moved on to a K24 and very happy :D.
BTW...I wasn't comparing those two engines. LOL...:p
I doubt anyone here has done any head work to this particular head,I mean I only know of Weq that has done any headwork to a d-series...
But I'm sure you know the things you will be looking at:
- P&P
- 4 angle valve job
- Port matching the Intake side to the IM and Exhaust side to extractors and the gasket aswell.
- Shave a little off (I'll get the exact amount soon)
- Use an OEM head gasket,it's not worth the .1 bump in compression to use an after maket one.
Here's some work on a d-series head:

Here's a cross section of a y7 head,you can see the exhaust side has been polished but not the intake side:

man u can find all that shit on ebay ..
rofl ...
besides the lip ..
my car is pretty much EDM .....
EBAY DOMESTIC MARKET ....
HAHAHHA
go on ebay and search this ...
" civic 4d 94 "
" rota wheels "
" Ferio "
" EG9 "
thats wat i usually search ..
lol
make ur car look USDM BOiiiiiiii !
Did you do that port/polish job mate? Nice job whoever did it. From that cross section there looks to be a fair bit of meat to grind away before hitting the galleries. Definately gonna give it a go soon. I was planning on welding up the Combustion chamber a little also, try and bump the comp up above 10.
Thanks mate.
can someone...ANYONE atleast run their car down the 1/4 ? And post up times ? (60ft / E/T / mph etc) ? No , not runs in Indo or NZ on "street tyres" (cough slicks) - something recent !
There isnt anyone really out there representing you guys....come on !
hahaha
thats not me.. i have an auto.. lolz...
maybe if i get hold of a cheap D series project later on :)
i wonder how a worked D N/A would go down the 1/4...
there are "worked" D series going 9 seconds and beyond - in the US / south america etc. But this is OZ lets see some "realist" worked NA D cars trying hte 1/4.
You guys wont prove anything by sitting on your bums :)
low 15s would b nice... if you could hit 14s it would be pretty good...
No that's not my work EDCivicPunk :)
Glad I could help.I Love them pics.
Ya gotta check out Bisimoto's N/A 9 second car:
http://youtube.com/results?search_qu...o&search_type=
Ill sure try once the new motors in.. Im not planing on running any kind of turbo/SC set ups since these new laws prevent me from driving them.
Im not going to set up the car specificaly for drags, but Ill put it down the quarter a couple of times to see what I can come up with.
Oops,sorry Lyle,I thought about what I posted a little after and was like u,maybe not...
Luke just get out there and drive that thing like you bloody stole it. when i did my very first runs i was doing like 16s just because i was too scared to push my car and drive agressively.
You car is good for low 13s dude.
just dont get put off by your first few runs
Beeze - no stress mate... actually i cannot claim that i built the head, i purchased it of dan last year (beastcivic)
Bisi Ezerioha's 9.5 second pass was with an f22 motor fed by carbs, which is pretty good considering its a single cam. i think his d series record was 10.2 or so with carbs.
on the topic of head work, my d15b4 has been milled down 1mm, ported, and currently houses a kms titanium valvetrain. to take advantage of it is a bisimoto stage 2 cam. it was running on 2 degrees advance, but then the cam gear shredded itself, currently waiting for a replacement.
bottom end handled by a 3 layer high comp metal head gasket, p29 pistons on stock rods, new bearings. exhaust handled by $17 ebay 4-2-1 extractors (you might think theyre crap, but they have the exact same design as half the name brands, only real header you'll get good performance from is a bisimoto), and a 2 inch mandrel bent system to ensure maximum bottom end response.
to get the power down to the ground are an XTR heavy duty clutch, and 4kg flywheel.
going in for a dyno tune soon to get the sparkies firing at the right time due to the swirl effect the domed p29s make in the cylinder under compression.
still using the factory keihin twin carbs in my ed6, until i can find linkages to complete my new setup featuring a pair of dual sidedraught dcoe40 skracing carbs.
at the moment without the tune or the new carbs, im running 15.2-15.4seconds unofficially (if you know what i mean) with bridgestone adrenalin tyres, high 15s with cheapo maxxis tyres.
my goal is a 14 second pass with an NA d series motor.
anyone else got a worked NA D?
i don't but im considering doing it. need to swap my d15z1 for a jdm d15b or d16a6 i think its called. the one from the eg vti hatch. or was it d16z6?
leaning towards the d16a6 as it will have more aftermarket support. jdm d15b will be impossible to upgrade the bottom end parts?
not really. pretty much all d15 and d16 motors have the same bore, only difference was the deck height and crank. www.fjdistributors.com can do a custom length rod for you, and they include their own custom rod bolts, which are of similar strength to arp. all pistons are pretty much interchangeable. your only poison will be finding the right bearings. there are a fair few different d15b motors, not to mention that each continent received a different sized crank, etc. ie. usdm uses 42mm/38mm bearings, whereas audm used 45mm/40mm bearings.
crankshafts, best bet would be to get it knife-edged/lightened by a machining shop.
check out www.onecamonly.com, their sponsors have a fair few aftermarket kits you can get for a single cam motor, and some even for the twin cam d series.
check out http://www.zealautowerks.com/dseries.html to figure out which combination you want to use for best compression.
