i'm thinking about putting a JDM d15b into my 92 lx.

i copied everything from another website but here's the stats. wat else do i need?

• Make: Honda
• Engine Code: D15B
• Year: Honda Civic 92-95
• Valve Train: SOHC, V-TEC, 16 Valve
• Horse Power: 125hp@6600rpm
• Torque: 106lbs-ft@5200rpm
• Redline: 7000rpm
• Transmission: 5 Speed
• Displacement: 1590cc
• Mileage: Approximately 25-35 Thousand Miles
• Condition: Best
• Included: Complete Motor
Complete Head & Block
5 Speed Transmission

Exhaust Manifold, Alternator
Power Steering Pump

Throttle Body, V-TEC Solenoid

 

is there a reason why maybe a b series, like b16 wouldnt work? i am a fan of those.

 

money is the problem with most people but others like SOHC or may be they just like D series

 

^ money isnt that big of a deal. it's just that the car is "92" i don't wanna spend that much money on it. a jdm d15b would be fine and maybe during the spring drop in a turbo or something. but i was just wondering wat else i need to do the swap. i heard i can use my stock tranny but it has already about 200k miles so idk.

 

bump

 

Definatly swap out that tranny if you're going to do the swap... the tranny is only like, $200 extra, OR you COULD look around a little harder and find one with LSD for a little more cash. As far as what else you'll need... I'm not possitive, but that sounds like it, the d15b is essentially the same thing as a d16z6, so it should be pretty straight forward, correct me if I'm wrong...

 

you need to do some wiring, and get a new ECU

 

If you feel like tearing your tranny apart, you could replace your main and secondary shaft bearings as needed; and replace the syncros. This would be much cheaper and some insurance.
