Re: Mini me swap vs Z6
I love that attitude. Don't be like everyone else and put a better performing engine in it. That's stupid. Engine swaps are played out.
Seriously, if you want to do a D16 build, do it because it's what you want to do. Don't do it because it's the hero thing to do because you're afraid D16 fanboys will call you a sellout because you did a swap. I don't know why D-series people have such a complex about trying to make everyone feel bad for not wanting a D-series. You're really fucked if you buy a car with a B-series in it, like an Integra, because then you'll be hated no matter what. That is, unless you swap a D-series into it. But then they'll probably hate you for doing an engine swap. See how retarded this entire situation is....? Hero worship of the underdog is pointless.
There's also people who will think you're an idiot for putting a turbo kit on it too, but do you really care what other people think about what you're doing to your car...?

I will say this, I have owned both single and dual cam motors before. I had nothing with problems with my lsvtec hatch. I have been driving my ef sedan with a jdm d15b swap for years, and I also have a jdm zc in my del sol which have never let me down. So d series motors have made a name for themselves to me with reliability.

Re: Mini me swap vs Z6
I've already been B-series, I had one swapped at a shop and things went down hill from there so I'm going back to a d-series. I just need something that's going to last until I get out of college. I have no plans on modding the d-series engine, I was just concerned w/ how reliable this mini swap is.
