Lets Talk d-series

[nugget1]

Just checking out the NGK parts finder,what model do you look under to find the D16Y8? Buggered if I can find it!!

[B147ch]

there isnt.
i think he means the USDM equivalent Si Coupe, which is basically like the EK 99-00 VTi-R coupe here?
they come with the b16 from the ek4 i believe.

LOL yeah like i said.. it had guts so it could have been a Vti-R.. too dark to see if there was a sunroof, and was too busy flooring it!!

Here's my lasy dyno done last year after exhaust and vtec controller were installed. - only got a K&N panel filter in stock box. meh.

B147ch it says on ur profile dat u have a EG5, isnt that the SI model with the DOHC D series? coz 80kw is heaps good for a NA sohc, but sounds acheiveable on a DOHC Dseries. good work tho =]

it says on my shell its an EG5 built date july 94 so yerr..

pretty sure its a sohc vtec lol

[bennjamin]

guys EG5 is


91-93 Si (DOHC non vtec d16a8)
93-95 vti (SOHC vtec d16y8/y1)

[B147ch]

guys EG5 is


91-93 Si (DOHC non vtec d16a8)
93-95 vti (SOHC vtec d16y8/y1)

i thought 95 was EG6???

[bennjamin]

i thought 95 was EG6???

no no no no no no

THINK for a second.

Different countries have different cars . right ? The EG6 was NEVER released here in Australia. Only Japan , malaysia and some others....
The EG6 is from 92-95. came with the b16a2.

In AUSTRALIA , the EG5 is Si or vti.
The EG4 is a gli , EG3 is a breeze , EG2 is a crx del sol etc. All these titles are different in other countries

meh.. whatev's..

so much confusion when ordering parts from overseas especially when matching with USDM civics..

[B147ch]

Thanks mate.
Are your leads blue? I couldn't use that site,there wasn't a listing for my car :/ 96 EK1 d16y4

HMMMM...

best calling up and just giving them your engine number etc. they'll probably recommend top gun leads but for an extra 20 bucks just go the NGK cos they got a rep.

Lukezen's got the NGK's as well yeah???

Cool.Cheers mate!

[B147ch]

Cool.Cheers mate!

s'all good..

see my old dyno? :P

need to see what its pulling now since i've slapped the headers on lol

It a pretty simple formula. Out Y1 is eqiv to a Z6. Y7 = Y4, Y8 = Y8. All the DOHCs are the same.

D's dont make 80kw without internal/cam change. All these mods ive seen dsicussed here;

headers
exhaust
intakes
leads

All they do is add bling and noise. You need an ECU to take advanatge of any of thee mods. Then the aim of the gain is to increase timing, lean it out a bit and tune it for 98+ron. But you arnt even going to make that much more power...

D-series NA is really really hard to do cheap on a budget without technical skills. First thing i would be doing is camshaft (zex 59300), ecu and cutting the bottom out of the airbox/SRI. With these mods, u will prolly pickup 10-15kw and the car will still sound/look stock. Maybe add a catback exhaust (2.25), but its going to add more noise then power.

From the discussion above re header types, its clearly evident that the OEM cast manifolds are basically as good as you will get.
