Does anyone know where I can buy a D16Z6 motor for cheap?

 

What is cheap? Check thepartstrader.com, hondaclassifieds.com, ect... But I wouldn't buy anything unless it was local.

sells them for $650, but that seems to be a bit on the high side IMO. Check local salavage yards, or local race shops, just ask around because lots of guys in 5g civics always take those out to do B-series swaps.

$650 is what all the local yards around me say too. Search and you can find one for $400-$500.

 

I would check the most country-*** junk yard you could find, and talk them down to 400 with cash in hand. I would give them 500 if they left the flywheel, clutch, alternator, and power steering pump on the engine. Dont forget to barter for the ECU, but open it and make sure the electronics didnt get wet. You can save on a core charge if you ever start tuning with a laptop because you already have an ECU in the car and you will have little downtime. That's what it's all aboutittle downtime. That means more time to shave your neighbors' cats or something neat like that.

 

Try hitting up K. Watanabe corp.

I dont know how much a D16Z6 was, but they quoted me 450 for a B16A 1st Gen.
But this is only if your in California. other than that it would cost to much to ship

 

try car-part.com
heres an actual link of the search I did. $3-400 should get you one.

I've got a d16y8 head that just needs to be shaved that i'll sell you for $100. you pay shipping its got the vtec selonoid and a pre-96 valve cover with vtec on it, and would make a nasty combo on a non vtec bottom end!

 

i just picked up a y8 block and a z6 head for free. I guess you just gotta be in the right place at the right time.
