87-89 integra rods
 
Ok so now i know that you can put these in to a D16A6 but will they fit my stock pistons/pins or do i need the integra pistons as well? also if taking out my pistons do i need to hone out the block and get new rings before i put the pistons back in? and do i have to re-ballance the rods or can i just simply put everything together without a hassle?

The correct way would just take the pistons and rods to the machine shop and have them pressed in.

Re-honeing the block? yes, I probably would put a quick hone job on the cylinder so the rings would seal.

Balancing the bottom end? well, technically you should since the 87-86 rods are heavier than the stock ones, but I am sure you could do it without problems. Lots of people slap in eagles/crowers without doing a thing.

How much will all of that cost at the machine shop? and are the integra rods stonger than the a6's?

yes they are stronger, how much stronger? I have no idea, they are just "beefier" in size, so they should support more HP.

How much would a machine shop charge? I dont know.. pick up a phone book and call around. Each machine shop has different prices.

Re:87-89 integra rods
 
So you actually shelled out and bought it for 160? ::)

eh... you probably could have bought one from Winnipeg for $20-$40 and had it shipped for like ten bucks...

Hahaha... I wish. That'd make me feel better for living out here. They're picking up old Riken, Enkei, and SSR stuff at the wreckers. for cheap. dammit.
