JDM B16a Spotting!!!!!

since all of you are talkin about the b16. which should i put in my car. i have a 95 honda civic dx and i need a new motor should i go with the b16 or the b18(gsr) which would be the best for the least amount of money

Well the b16 is the cheaper engine, the gsr is slightly more powerful but costs anywhere from 500-1000 more bucks. I have the b16 but sometimes i wish i had the gsr engine

how come my engine number is 5500xxx, something like this(can't see clearly) but I am using a P30 ECU, so mine is 160hp 1st gen B16?

how about a early integra , with D16 DOHC motor wont the tranny bolt up to it , just a thought , or early b series tranny should work, early integra with b series motors an auto tranny,

B series and D series don't fit together.

What is tha difference in a b16a and a b16b or b16c????email me [email protected]

B16a has 160hp on their '88-'91 JDM version, and is cabel tranny.
B16a2 ('99-'00 US Si) also has 160hp.
B16a has 170hp from '92+ JDM.
B16b has 185hp, the Civic Type R motor. Car was never sold in the US.

There are many differences between the engines; like compression, gear ratio, cams, valve train.

how hard are the steps in putting at b16a into my 96 honda civic ex? could me and my friends do it fairly easy? whats a good proce for a used one with 4000 miles on it

what about ZC engine??????

ZC is a d-series.

thanks for that insight, I had to read a whole book to find that out, but I just joined this side and am glad that I did.

Actualy you are both wrong, the gear ratios have nothing to do with the engine, but are dependant on the g/box.

The SiR Civics and CRX's came with a Y1 which had the tallest gearing, and top speed at 8,100rpm in 5th of 241kph.

The Xsi Integra had the S1 with the shortest over all gearing, including a very short diff ratio, so the top speed is a bit less.

The Rsi Integra had a YS1 which has very close and short 1st - 4th gears, but the same 5th and diff ratio as the Y1.

The S1 is best left in a rubbish bin, the Y1 is best for an everyday street car, and the YS1 is best for a race car.

:cool:





I am your god! kneel before me! :evillaugh :smoka: :alien:
where was this site 8 months ago when I really needed this information. fortunatly I have the YS1 with Exedi clutch,presure plate and all new internals and seal, mated with my B16A all rebuilt, megan complete exhaust and Deepstage Custom intake, this is a NA setup and have had it at the track taking 1/4's at 15's @ 121, not bad for do it your self,most parts from ebay. lol

Deepstage aye? You live in Killeen?

Sorry if you've already said this but i have a 1990 Civic Hatch with a b16a, I'm new to the car so how can i find the number to know if it's 1 mil. or 5 mil.?
Thanks

i have a 92 integra ls, i just put in a b16a motor but i cant figure out hoe to hook up the vtec because the motor has no speed sensor. any help. thanx

if your car didnt come with vtec you could go to rywire.com and check out their harnesses and either build your own or get one from them. did you change your ecu when you put it all in?
