D15B worth it or not

[civicd15b]

Is it worth boring out my JDM D15B motor. I just need to find a place to find the parts. Anybody no where to get Internal engine parts for this motor and are there other engine parts that will interchange with this JDM D15B. Prolly gonna get custom made wiseco pistons but rods i need. People say the z6 rods will work but i need to know for shure. Any experieanced Honda Engine builders can help me out i would gladely appreciate it.

The ZC DOHC NON VTECs use the same bottom end. Anything for a d16z6 or d16y8 will not fit. Evey thing for a ZC will fit.

wow, disregard his^^ post. the DOHC ZC is completely different.

good info to know

well considering how much it'll cost to do all this to ur motor,

I'd think you could afford to find a cheap d16z6 shortblock or longblock to use.
and you'll start out with 1.6L from the begging, wont need expensive custom pistons. Yes the r/s of the d15b is pretty cool, but is it worth all the extra $$ to build on??

tad, you're in the bay area too, im wondering how you got your JDM d15b past smog...

any tips? or did you just drop the guy 200 bucks or something?
