RE: Just ordered my JDM D15b
I would just get the exedy oem clutch unless your planning on crazy boost. How much are the stage 2/3 anyways? If they are not much more expensive I would get the best one as a clutch is not fun to keep having to install[:@] And nice choice on the motor! I have the d15b7 and tranny too, suks[:'(] I am looking to replace my engine, mabey I will just do the same as you instead of swapping a b series or h22a, cost too much $$ and my car is a 94

^^ ya I have seen them on there a few times, there's alot of fake parts on ebay if your not carefull. I just try to use the Canadian parts dealer websites I got from fiirkan Then I can avoid custom and border charges as well

aight so here she is
I HAVE CROSSED OVER TO THE VTEC SIDE! muh hahahaha
the Tranny!!!!
heres the valve cover i painted
step one take off that crappy black texture coating with rock miracle
NEXT self-etch prime the bare metal
then put down the Duplicolor metal cast Ground coat
then the anodized color top coat***it doesnt look like it does in real life, it looks more anodized, its the same stuff i used on the valve cover in my sig...
i am getting an OEM Exedy Clutch and pressure plate, as well as a fidanza 8.5lb flywheel.
new mounts, new axels, and i think im going to run Royal purple or another synthetic oil

i must have changed my mind about 10000000 times between the D15b and B16, it came down to me figuring out that i can get sooo much more horsepower from the single boosted(always wanted a boosted car) for the same price as the B16 swap.....o and what really did it was the fact that i FINALLY found forged rods and pistons MEANT for the JDM d15b from fjdistributors
