zex stage 2 is known to be one of the best for a street/strip d-series. crower power comes on 2 late.

D16Y1 = D16Z6 in the States

92-95

D16Y8 is the same in AUS and US I think 95-00

D16Y1 = eg sedan/hatch vti
D16Y8 = ek/ej sedan/coupe vti

You'll need new valve springs/Retainers too match

Last time I looked into it, it was about $1000 AU not installed
