DA9 interchangeable parts

[[T][L]]

anyone??

[180sx]

better ask in " Technical " section

well the da has a bend in the end and comes out the other side if i remember correctly. some members have used the dc style exhaust and run straight through, some say there is an increased risk of spark hitting exhaust due to the fact that there is no guard for an exhaust spark hitting an amount of fuel....

[Spoon DA9R]

there is no problem with that set up...only have to add hinges on the driver side to hook the muffler on and maybe cut a hole in the bumper

Thanks a lot lads.

Re. spark hitting exhaust - what exactly is meant there? I thought exhaust was already combusted gases ie. no risk of further ignition.

[Spoon DA9R]

some ppl think with dc2 exhaust the bend over axle part be closer to the fuel tank and the mulffer itself is closer to fuel tank or something along that line...

i ran a BC spec2 straight pipe from dc2r before..car never blew up..so i have no idea wot they mean

[freakatronic]

Sweet, thanks for helping out.

[sml-089]

i wasnt agreeing with it. just stating wat some ppl think

Bumping this up

Anyone know what other honda model's radiator fits into the DA9? eg any b series radiator?

And anyone know if dc (incl dc2) 4 stud discs and pads fit on oem da9 brakes?

thanks

the DC radiator is very similar dimensions, but the mounting points are different and the drain plug is in the wrong spot (covered by the crossmember) the mount points for the fans are in different locations as well.
any Civic/CRX half size will fit with a few tweaks as well, but make sure you get the dual core.

Thanks heaps mate, ill get onto it

im confused by something i saw on page 1, someone said you can fit a b18c or b16a vtec head onto a b18a block. that sounds like an awesome mod

however someone said the rocker cover wont fit the block. how do you get around this??
