putting a d16 head on a d15
Will a d16 head off of a 98 civic ex fit a d15 block off of 95 civic dx ? and what would it take ? can i use the tranny off the d16 and wire harness and what about timeing ? i think mad mike told me it was called a mini me swap ? any other suggestions will be helpfull(that is'nt shit talking)
any one ??
Bump for some help for a friend.
Yes cactus it will fit.
see I told you I thought it would work. Just wasn't sure on the diff. years.
yeap its a mini-me swap. its when you pair a non-vtak block with a d-series vtak head. and when u do this, you get mad vtak, but also some HP and slightly higher compression.
nothing too crazy, pretty straightforward bolt on HP swap. not worth the trouble for the HP gains.
dont take anything i say srsly. its the interwebs.
hp swap ??????? ha ... jus get a A6 1.6L block .. mate it with a Z6 head .. and boom full 1.6 liter swap FTW .. mini me swap FTL!

lol yeah, if you get a a6 you'll have higher displacement but when you do the mini me swap you do get a noticeable change in power. don't forget to take off your oil control jet on your block when you do it.Originally Posted by 1SOL2NV
please do a 1.6 L mini me .. if ya do one .. a 1.5 L Block is such a p.o.s !!!!! ... no replacement for displacement ..( Except turbo on honda )... lol .

thnaks for the help guy.. but i am realy thing about doing the mini swap
Go for it!
im getting a damn good deal on a d16, 150bucks and that comes with trany, motor, ECU, wire harness
I say you fix the Y8 up and just swap the whole thing in rether than the head and the tranny.
Ditto, since you're getting it for so cheap you might as well. But its your ride...you choose.I say you fix the Y8 up and just swap the whole thing in rether than the head and the tranny.
I would use a z6 head before i got a y8
The EMPIRE
I've never looked into but what the difference besides one being obd1 and the other obd2?
yea but they guy i might get it from says it knocks??
Rebuild the bottom end.
oh I see, well pick you up a cheap d16a6 to go with it or something, i head about this thing where you can take the d17 internals and put it inside a d16a6 and that shit is high compression and a bigger bore and displacement. Heard it's bad ass...
Hate to jump in, but i would use a z6 block with ZC pistons and a y8 head with intake mani. And a y8 tranny. You will be unstopable in the d series all motor world.
Lol, my friend did that, and he was killing B-series all day. Haha, only he had a Skunk2 IMHate to jump in, but i would use a z6 block with ZC pistons and a y8 head with intake mani. And a y8 tranny. You will be unstopable in the d series all motor world.
yea some one was telling me about that too.. how much would d17 internals run for ??
got no idea, i think i saw a dude selling a vtec d17 for like 200 or something. i forget..lemme find the link
here ya go, he wants 200 for head and block but you only need block..

but thing is, you got to do a lil modification to the d16a6 to make the crank work..
hhhmmm d17 eh ? the 80 hp to the wheels motor ??? lol ... pm7 ( Jdm zc )pistons d15b7 stock rods z6 head with a y8 manifold .... Call it a day . or jus do wut everybody says with the d17 internals ... then we'll line the D's Up ...and see wut happens ... but tis your choice .. Vtec madd slow YO!
