Lol yeah that counts for hunda's..you haven't seen a turboed suzuki swift running low 13's with stock internals and putting out more than 200 hp on just 13 psi

Bobohc3d, u shure about rods?

I'm planning of pushing ~7psi on it (stock internals, and as most here said original head gasket would do).

i'll tell you just one thing from my personal advice.
dont listen to all HMT talks
THey swap engine under 20MIN even with h22 convertions.
They all run under 13sec and they all have stock engine.
It never worked on me.
Put a thicker head gasket. Push more from the turbo. increase torque instead of HP
D14 are unknown in the US
all i can tell you is that its a crap engine.
A swap for a d16 would be nice... but swap from d14 to 16 isnt as easy as they say on the net... and so on and soo on.

good luck ;D

still would be cool to have, if i can find a ZC for cheap i might actually consider it. what do you think shipping would be on that?

I can shipp you a D13 ;D It's carbed, but yout can do a MPFI swap on it.
And yo Bobohc3d I can get you a ZC if you want...you're in Europe right?...there are a lot of ZC for sale here man and pretty cheap PM me if you seriously want one...but i don't know what to do about shipping.

Hmmm.. now I'm kinda worried ::)
What would u guys suggest would be max PSI for daily driver (remeber tho that I do smetimes drive at WOT for some time on freeways) with stock head gasket, and stock rods, etc on this tiny D14?

0.3-0.4 BAR :)
not more... thats my advice

just for egsample.
My friend blow his engine with a NX 50 shot
the AFR was perfect... it was just too much power the engine could handle...

d14 are bad ass, think seriously of doing a swap for a d16z6
thats easy and cheap or even easier go for a d16 non vtec.. plug and play
