price to rebuild?

**chickeneg3** · 11-08-2010 11:04 PM

hi,

i have a d16y4 engine that im putting in my eg, but first i want to install a high comp kit, the parts are as follows:

-P29 domed or PM3 pistons (75mm)
-Piston rings (Hastings or NPR)
-Timing Belt
-Water Pump
-ACL Rod Bearings
-ACL Main Bearings
-ACL or King Thrust washers

does anyone have experience having this work done by a workshop and what price should i be happy with?

You'd have more bang for buck by going for a B16a swap.

thanks but ive heard it all before, ive looked into every conversion, and id rather have something unique. i was asking if anyone had experience in high compression not opinions.

check the D series thread in the All Motor area man... maybe even ask your question in there, the D guys lurk around there!

Also, check the US sites like Honda-Tech, theres a wealth of knowledge and experience there dude... good luck

but your still goin to be burning when you work your car then you line up with a b16a and he flys by you with no effort

obviously im not too interested in power output, otherwise id get a b18 :S im not asking for opinions here guys.

as zilli said, might wanna check the d-series thread. or maybe d16turbo? i think theres a website dedicated to turboed d-series, even though ur not going to turbo, might find some info from there.

High comp kit + turbo ? D: Kaboom.

Since, & i can only presume this by the first post, the engine hasn't been installed in the car yet, why not try & tackle this yourself? Honestly D-series are not hard to work on. You have all the information for this procedure, readily available by the click of a finger. A much cheaper option & you have that satisfaction that you've built this yourself....
