Can anyone give me a walkthrough on a d15b7-d16z6 mini-me conversion ??not getting any replies and need help desperately

 

There is somone on craigslist selling a d15b7 manual transmission 5 speed. Will that fit my D16? And is it smart to buy it off of craigslist? Like get that, then invest in a lightweight flywheel?

 

it'll fit and work fine
the gearing isn't as short as the D16Z6 or D16Y8 transmissions, so your acceleration won't be as good as it would be with either of those, but it'll still work fine and it's not a huge difference, but it's noticeable. now, if it was a d15b8 transmission, i would say not to get it, those have realllllly long gears.

it's cut off at the end but you get the idea. after the point where it's cut off you just put the new head on with new head studs (the old ones are not reusable), and torque them down to specs.
Then you set the cam and crank to TDC and slide the timing belt on. Then tension the belt (I would really replace the belt though if I were you if it's not recently new or you don't know its mileage).
Then you put everything else on (distributor, spark plugs, spark plug wires, etc.)
Then run the wires from the VTEC solenoid to the ECU (you can find this DIY in the DIY section) and install the P28 ECU (D16Z6 ECU).
Then you're pretty much done.

 

didnt mean to jump on u with it might be a d16y7 but no its starting to make me wonder cuz i hav a 99ex fully loaded n its a y7 o ****

 

^someone must have swapped it


or do you live in Canada, or was the car from Canada?

 

nah the cars california i bought it used cupple months back but yea the wire harness is cut up n all this stuff so truth its not hard to believ its been messd with by stupid ppl

 

agreed above...your gettin some false info from your friend...d16y8 motors are equipped with vtec

 

i agree with him to i no that d16y8s were vtec
but i dont have a y8 i have y7 so it means my car was swapd out before i bought its so
idk if u look under the hood its easyly seen many things were messd with
but im still not complaining the car runs great
