Id say most d16 are obd2 since i see more ek than eg
And with the clutch, it sucks bad! I ordered a clutch as well, from autobarn, the guys ordered a B16a2 one, than ordered the ZC one, at this point i had to do my own research to get the correct one..... sigh!
so does it matter if i use an OBD2 block with an OBD1 head? is it only the head that has all the harness connectors on it?
are any of the other D16 blocks bolt on with D16y1/D16z6 head?
i spose it doesnt really matter that much
if i use a D16y8 head gasket on my D15b7 block with D16y1 head the difference in compression should make up for the lost 97cc of displacement
Nah, black doesn't really matter I don't think. I've seen a lot of later model B20 blocks used with OBD1 B-series heads.
How much compression will you make up using a D16Y8 gasket? I do remember reading that D-series.org thread but can't remember.
Reckon it'd be worth considering if I ever had to replace the HG on my Y1?
just a heads up guys - you will probably see one of these for sale once or twice a year - and this is almost half price as well
probably one of the best bang for buck things u can do to the D-series

yeah im probably not going to bother with the block - cant be assed pulling mine out of the car
i tore down the head + valvetrain properly yesterday and it all looks great =D
the block on the other hand is completely rooooted lol
Hi guys. Going to attempt oil and filter change on my civic.
At 122,000 kms.. Healthy strong engine thats been serviced frequently.. what oil should I be using. Is a thinner oil still ok to use like 5-10w - 40? Thinking of 10w-40 as supercheap has a sale on this type of castrol oil atm
If not, what brand and grade oil do you guys reccommended for my beloved low km D series EK
thanks
Yes,it'll be fine Chris!
Nulon 5W-40 + Liqiud moly's low friction oil treatment is the bomb combo!
just a heads up guys - you will probably see one of these for sale once or twice a year - and this is almost half price as well
probably one of the best bang for buck things u can do to the D-series

DO WANT! cheap!!!! but imagine the postage to aust, expensive!!!, ontop of that, a very long 1-3 months wait, unless u have the dough to air freight it here
Which does nothing ! (especially on a D series)
A flywheel , does not increase HP. But it increases response and will make your car faster in all aspects. So , putting $300-400 into a light flywheel , is far better investment in a $120 header that does nothing. Id bet the same amount of money on anything else...will not produce the same results or "feel" or "smile factor" to the owner/driver.
flywheel and clutch install is like 400-800 average price less if you know how to do it
so the fly wheel is not such a bang for your buck for the average person
for 1k you may as well get a ebay turbo ben
