USDM engine sales
Anyone know of a company that sells USDM engines? Like oh..I dunno..the D16Z6 that I cant find anywhere! Every place I look at only has JDM engines. Which I can understand because they are an importer.

Re: USDM engine sales
I don't remember what site I got this link from, so I'm not too sure how reputable they are.
http://sohfast.com/store/used/civic.asp And then there's this site. I've seen it posted on here many times before. http://www.importautosalvage.com/

Re: USDM engine sales
Get the D15B, its about the same price your gonna find a decent Z6 and the same motor pretty much. Ive done the search your after, and its alot easier to find a D15B right now than a Z6. I have 2 spare z6's, one is tore down and the other needs to be(bad rings).
For the Z6, just gotta luck into them really. When I was at the salvage yard, it took at least 6 months to get a z6 in for me. But that wasn't pulling one from another yard, just waiting on the car.

Re: USDM engine sales
Yeah but im interested in going turbo with it, and the higher compression and lower tq on the d15b doesnt sound like what I need.

Re: USDM engine sales
The compression ratio is only 9.3:1 and has 102tq (4tq less than the d16z6). And with the right turbo, it woun't make a difference.

Re: USDM engine sales
Apparently USDM is the new JDM.

Re: USDM engine sales
Haha, you arent kidding... http://www.tamparacing.com/classifie...3/limit/recent
what do you guys think? Think the bore will affect ability to boost or rev up high? Ive built engines but never messed with different internals, all oem stuff mostly.

Re: USDM engine sales
that's just an over bore, because they needed to clean up the sleeves and were in too bad of condition to just hone. You can get the over bore pistons straight from honda. They are .20 (mm or inches, can't remember) larger than stock, nothing noticeable performance wise. So it won't effect anything, because it's such a minute amount.

Re: USDM engine sales
I was just saying that it's not that big of a deal, because honda sells them for rebuilds. And that they're an OE size (over sized OE size, but still OE size). Good luck on the project man, hope it works out for you.

Re: USDM engine sales
looks like a fun project im already looking for upgrades i could do to the c32a but not much luck lately..its already got an exhaust so im gonna get a CAI intake for the upgraded manifold. then probly look for some nice acura wheels maybe use the tl 17s. i guess theres a guy on their forum who makes chips for the ecu that will give you a better fuel map and higher redline
