Dedicated DA9 Q & A thread

melbs better though lol

Easiest of all would be a B16A from a DA6, everything bolts up, only wiring is a bit different and they come standard with a cable gearbox. not sure if it is a huge improvement though, you lose torque but gain revs and top end power

b20 non vtec, should cost no more than $1500 installed
massive torque..
i have a b20/b16 vtec and i hardly even get into the vtec zone because it has so much torque

edit: short ratio gearbox helps alot also

Are you running powersteering? If so which brackets and pump?

[espionage85]

standard ones, aircon also

Got a friend with a CRX DELSOL JAP SPEC sitting there it is a 1.6cly vtec. Not sure what kind of motor never took a good look, the gearbox is gone but the engine is fine.

JapSpec Vtec engine.. im gona assume wil make my DA a rocket his willing to give me the engine, Just curious anyone know differences and problems i might run into?

I have a YS1 Cable Gearbox atm and installed i just got the standard b18a

ull lose torque, somethin u might want considering da is heavier than crx, but the gearbox will bolt up if u use the ys1 clutch and flywheel,
long as the engine is a b series, there all pretty conbatible, prob is ys1 gearbox is long ratio and will be crap for a b16, so basicly itll be slower than what you currently got

ill be sticking to my lovely b18 then lol

haha yup unless u can get the short ratio gearbox that goes with b16, it will be slower
