ZC's make more power, have a stronger bottom end, and who needs parts when you're building a custom turbo kit?

Zc's are rated at like 3 more horsepower than the z6 and the difference in strength is probably lost in how well you take care of the engine. ie a z6 that's been taken care of will hold more boost than a zc that hasn't. Parts are a problem when you need a freaking gasket that noone has a clue to what to get it from and then you have to go through the trouble of making one just so you can put on your damn thermostat.

Aren't all the parts almost identical to the D16A1 in the old integras? Can't you just get parts for them?

Some things are the same, some are from the d16a6 and some are just from various motors like the timing belt is from a 90 2.0 prelude si.
