I own a 1995 Honda Civic Hatchback VX
It has a D15Z1 Manual tranny

I have a D16Z6 engine,manual tranny,axles, and ECU.
I don't know if this will bolt right into my car.
If you know anything else i might need, can you please tell me.

I believe 92-95 Civic EX's came with D16z6's and it should bolt directly into your car as any d-series should...and its the same OBD1 motor...So it will go in with ease....just honda wanted to put less performance motors in baseline cars.....the ex's have the vtec...you may need the vtec wiring tho..im not sure on that.....and those motors dont hit vtec that hard to let you know!

"hitting vtec hard" has nothing to do with performance..

Will drop right in. I don't think you have to rewire anything, but I'm not sure with D-Series swaps.

i doubt it...since its from the same year car? and same obd version...

i mean...i dont see why you would need to wire a different o2 sensor in...

but maybe im wrong since...your car did come with the vtec-e version, and the motor your swapping isnt vtec-e its jsut vtec...

i really dont know about that one..


try searching www.honda-tech.com

the VTEC-e difference is solely is solely in the head. I believe he is going to have to rewire the 5 wire to a 4, but there are a ton of sites out there that tell you how.

I know on my Cx, we had to rewire it from a 3 wire to a 4 wire o2...

(yes my car did come with the swap, but recently.. I hid every wire in the factory loom and wired it thru the fire wall, so it looks factory. )
