I am not totally familiar with that motor, but from my understanding, it is basically the same thing as a d16z6. Which would mean you can use your stock p28 ecu. You just might have to use a USDM VTEC solenoid if it has the same solenoid as the JDM b-series motors.

Well, I dunno bought the other guy but my piston rings are shot and I don't wanna have to go throught the rebuild. I'd rather swap a new engine in with less miles....and it's cool to say it's JDM!!

In respect of my quote, I don't know how to rebuild an engine. My friends do but will charge me. A swap would take less time and would benefit my situation a lil bit better.

Since you sound new to the "Honda World",don't get complicated and do a ZC swap,just find another d16.
The Zc will be harder to find parts for if you are not sure what to look for. |
