My life sucks so bad I've owned everything you're referencing and am speaking from experience, not just hopes and dreams?

The importers keep it going cause they make extra money off you idiots thinking a ZC is anything different from shit we already had in the states. Let me fill you in...

There are 3 ZC's technically, all of them already were featured in the states to the T. First, in no particular order, the SOHC non-vtec "ZC", also known as a D16A6, this was the multi point engine in the CRX Si. Next would be the SOHC Vtec "ZC", also known as a D15B, or a D16Z6. Came in the EG Si and Ex. Last is the DOHC ZC, known as the D16A1. This came in the 1st gen Integra.

So when you say you're getting a "ZC" with an "Integra ECU", I want to spill my brains on the most blunt object I can find out of shear amazement.

well the zc shares part numbers with the crx, integra, and civic from the research i've done. they're very closely related, but the zc isn't exactly the same. I'm doing it for the mileage anyway, not cuz i wanna be jay dee em tyte. lol unless u wanna help me find a decent lower mileage multiport d series to swap in. wanna stay with the single cam.

Im actually rockin a 91 EF... DX model. I just finished the MPFI swap. Running on a PM6 ECU from the Si. Im personally thinking of runnin a PR4, stayin OBD0, and boosting. Im probably going to get bashed because "I needs to go OBD1, yo" nah. Im good on that. I currently have a Z6 intake mani and a D15B2 with a rebuilt bottom end. Planning on upgrading to a Y8 mani and a A6 cam, then 7 PSI with a Garret GT28R. Not much but It'll move. Buddy of mine had a 89 Si with a stock A6, Traction bar, Rota Slips,B&M short shifter, headers, intake, Megan racing exhaust I believe, shit scooted. Beat B series cars all day. Im just sayin.

i'm rocking the 89 ef hatch b16 swap and boost obd0 running obd1 jumper harness , and 88 ef obd0 d16a6 swap mpfi with pm6 as well .

i have like 150k on my b15b2 in there right now. is it possible to boost it keeping it stock after the mpfi swap? well i know it's possible, but would it hold up for 5-8lbs? it's gonna be my daily driver so I don't want it to blow in 6 months. lol

efchick88

i would say mpfi is better just cause ive never seen dpfi boosted .

The only difference I'm aware of, is that the actual ZC's are supposed to have a slightly higher compression ratio. They are physically idenitical.
When I say slightly, I mean it. Not enough to warrant any increased value, or performance for that matter.

well thanks for the help 83...know anywhere I could grab a d series mpfi motor from around virginia beach with low mileage?

I highly doubt he was beating b series cars with a stock A6 and IHE
