no.
Lol man you talking less power and a lil engine hahaha and no it won't fit come bro the accord ain't a civic haha do with the b16 swap now that's a engine for the accords and integra
new engine with better fuel economy, maybe a twin cam, sounds cool to me
anything is possble lol, atleast with the D you get aftermarket...
if thats all you can get & ur current motor is dead, then you can make it work
heres a link to the d series engine specs
http://www.knology.net/~jediklc/specs.htm
well heres another list of all the honda motors for you peeps that are into engine swaps
http://www.gtcars.ca/online/honda-ac...ist-specs.html
LXi Hatchback (MT) 2454lbs (spec taken straight from this site)
1995 Honda Civic EX CPE (MT) 2443lbs (D16Z6)
1996 Honda Civic EX CPE (MT) 2483lbs (D16Y8)
You're right...the Accord is such a heavyweight compared to the Civic....I better check my numbers next time :rolleyes:
the engine is lighter and makes more power so it would be faster then the a
if i was going to do a swap in a 3g i wouldnt pick the d tho lol, but do what you want :p
well i thought he had a sedan or coupe lol but hatch is good
well he could swap it and do some weight reduction and maybe be up there... i went up againt my friend with his civic with a d16z6 with turbo and my car was stock and wouldnt even reach its power so it was like a street drag race from light to light but i admit the d16z6 sounds nice with the turbo
alright thanks guys the reason i was going to do the D series is because my friend had one and was getting rid of it and my car has 250xxx miles on it =/ but i also have an Ls motor which i think would be the better choice but it seems like it would be kind of spendy??
and a D16 Turbo Build just sounds kinda nice but then again id rather have a DOHC Ls/vtec turbo build hahaha but im what you like to call broke:sad2:
there is no replacement for displacement!! 1.6L will never be as strong as lets say 2.0 or 2.2. The fact of the matter is that there is no point in swapping and spend all that time and money on something like Dseries. If you CAN do it, then go and do B18C at least or H22.
I dont want to burst your bobble here, but if you were serious and had the skil, you'dd cam here and asked some details about wiring or axles, not if its possible to swap. Anything is possible.
There are many D's out there kicking B's/H's asses ....
is that so??
and i forgot to say its a D16y8 vtec with headers cold air intake
Hmm true on that d series isn't the best motor unless you have the money for the sick tuning and time it will take.... but a turbo d series might beat the h22 but the d16y8 has like what 127hp and the b20 like 130hp? Correct me if I'm wrong cause I'm on my cell
it depends on what B20 we talking about. the B20z engines make 150Hp, B20a makes 136Hp or JDMv makes 160Hp. B20z with B18c head makes 220Hp aprox.
most want surgery to make it bigger not smaller.
