D16z6 to a D15b help!
Hello all, i am new to the d series engines, and i have a few questions.. My fiance has a 93 Del Sol SI with a d16z6 in it, and i am planning on dropping in a JDM D15B vtec into it.(the z6 is on its last legs, maybe 1000 miles left in it period) In doing so, i have a few questions.. Will this will be pretty much a straight drop in? i have heard that the D15B has a 1 wire o2 sensor. i'm assuming the Z6 has a 2? what do i need to do to convert from a 2 wire to a 1 wire o2? also, can i use the P28 ECU? Eventually, i am planning on putting together a turbo kit using uberdata. Do i need to swap to the P08 ECU? I plan on getting the Transmission with the D15B as the one in there now grinds 3rd and 4th.. can i use the same axels?
When i go to order new parts for the D15B, can i order parts as if it's any USDM D15B series engine? For example, i want to get: spark plugs, spark plug wires, rotor, timing belt, water pump and a tension pulley for it.. can i order one for the D15B7(as an example) and have it fit//work properly? Lastly, is there anything i need to look out for while doing this swap? |
Re: D16z6 to a D15b help!
the swap is moslty straight forward. there are a couple small issues.
one is the o2 sensor. the stock one is one wire on the d15b and the stock one on the z6 is a 4 wire. just reuse the z6 sensor. there is also a purge solenoid on the back of the z6 intake manifold that isnt on the d15b. you can either drill the small tab that is on the manifold and bolt it on just like the z6 or swap the z6 intake manifold onto the d15b or just plug it in so you dont get any codes and let it hang. it doesnt do anything important, but it needs to at least be plugged in. you will have to swap the VSS (vehicle speed sensor) from the z6 transmission to the d15b tranny. its not too hard, but be careful cause you could break it. the stock z6 axles will be fine also the p28 ecu will be perfect for that engine and when you do turbo the car you can chip the p28 and use uberdata/crome. as for ordering parts you can get them just as you would for the z6 except the timing belt. you have to get that for a vx model civic(i cant remember that engine code though) im sure there is more but it has been almost 2 years since i have dont that swap, but i did the exact same thing in my civic that came stock with a z6. you shouldnt have any real problems, but if you do feel free to ask. and before anyone else says it post some porn already, preferably of someone you know. everyone around here likes that more than regular porn |
