Hey D-Serious! I ordered YCP Pistons, but I got high compression and I'm curious if those will even work or do I need to order the low comp? When ordering I apparently didn't read the entire description.. 🤦
@@hatchbackturbo93 I shouldn't be worried about clearance? I understand it's gonna be a tight fit as is right? The high comp sit kinda high in the middle of the piston ofcourse instead of a dish look.
So... I have a 1984 CRX, could I swap a D15b into it without doing any fab work? It has an EW1 which is basically a D15a1. I wonder if the engine mounts are the same.
Will you go full interior??. . I'm amazed I. How much dedication you have for the single. . So many Honda vidz all b20 vtec or k series. . Single cammerz are not rare now. .

Hello sir, I need help with mounts. Put a D15 into a 97 EX Civic. Do you happen to know where I can purchase new mounts. I am new to Hondas. I come form a Subaru/Aircooled VW background. Any pointers would help. Peace to you.
So like that d15 runs 75.5 vitara I’m trying to run a d16y8 which is I believe 75.0 so that’s what I should do? And what about the Notch when you ran with the skunk2 do you need to clear the notch or you had to notch it? (Keep in mind I don’t wanna bore more so I just wanna keep stock sleeves 75.0 and I don’t want to notch so I’ll just be running the no notch speed factory I want to know if I can get away with the skunk2 and not having to do that so what you guys think????
Also if you're going to run the standard 75 mm Pistons it will be very noisy like a diesel when it's cold due to excessive piston to wall clearance (piston slap)
Which exact skunk2 should I be getting I see there is two the vitara spec and the other just says d16 (alpha connecting rods) and okay sounds like I’m notching I’m fine with it. And I guess I’m cool with the loud noise. I’m going to do more research on the girdle right now
I run a non detergent 30 weight for the first & 2nd oil change about 50 miles then another oil change at 200 miles, then put in the 20w 50 and let it eat
Hi, I’m a little confused, if the block is all stock then how are you using 75.5 mm pistons ? I thought it was 75mm from factory. Any feedback would be appreciated!
It cost me around 6k to build with the 4piston head Which isn't needed (my best pass 10.56 @ 140.6 was on a head I ported) but i got a lot of parts 2nd hand including the turbo that i got for $200

depending on obd1 or 2. biggest distinction is the rod journal size
It’s an OBD1 engine. I will measure the rod journal size and compare it to the main journal size. I just got worried seeing the single oiling hole.
Hey D-Serious! I ordered YCP Pistons, but I got high compression and I'm curious if those will even work or do I need to order the low comp? When ordering I apparently didn't read the entire description.. 🤦
I've never tried it with a cast piston, it can work tuner just needs to know the compression ratio so they can adjust timing accordingly
@@hatchbackturbo93 I shouldn't be worried about clearance? I understand it's gonna be a tight fit as is right? The high comp sit kinda high in the middle of the piston ofcourse instead of a dish look.
@@matthewsmith9487 always should check piston to valve clearance but it shouldn't be an issue
Got a question do you think a t04e 60 trim .63AR too big for my vitara build ? It’s a dual ceramic ball bearing turbo with billet wheel
no it'll be good
@@hatchbackturbo93 ok cool thanks for the reply much appreciated
Isn’t a stock block 75mm? Did you over size the block to 75.5?
Yes
So... I have a 1984 CRX, could I swap a D15b into it without doing any fab work? It has an EW1 which is basically a D15a1. I wonder if the engine mounts are the same.
Will you go full interior??. . I'm amazed I. How much dedication you have for the single. . So many Honda vidz all b20 vtec or k series. . Single cammerz are not rare now. .
No interior, its just a play car
Are those the originals on the back? I thought those were the si wheels
Nice settings. I'm also D16 turbo...but my turbo is so small...lol. TD05H-16G with 26psi. You can use Motul competition 75W140 trans fluid. So smooth. My trans is S40 Non LSD
Hello sir, I need help with mounts. Put a D15 into a 97 EX Civic. Do you happen to know where I can purchase new mounts. I am new to Hondas. I come form a Subaru/Aircooled VW background. Any pointers would help. Peace to you.
I get most of my parts through ebay.
Love the car great expalnation For the final touch of Grandpa stock. Bottom of H on center caps line up with the valve stem
my dads friend found it hard to turbo his VTEC well, are you on the same boat
no, works great
from the part list I saw ARP 208-4301 head stud u using.. is it for D15 or D16?
both, depending on which block and obd1 or 2
Can I have an information? What is the clearance « piston to wall » ?
.005
@@hatchbackturbo93 thank bro
Doing a lsv turbo build for daily driver
Absolutely love it, good work man!
What about the head studs? You didn't mentioned that.
這是白色HONDA k6,3門,改裝車,有改引擎,紅頭改裝引擎?。
Love the car . I have the 92 vx . What options would i have with the d15z1 other than swapping? I havent seen anything for them that isnt expensive.
Can I swap to the d16z6 head on the d15b without replacing the pistons, rods and thicker gasket? My cx has the 15b and I want more valves.
Yes, I'm assuming your talking about a D15B8 8 valve engine which is not the same as a JDM D15B
About to build a sohc now and have no idea where to start .
with a parts list and a goal.
@@hatchbackturbo93 yeah I need a parts list lol it's all new to me
@@kkbodyshop well, check the description of this video for ideas
have you had any issues to this day with e85 fuel with the stock fuel lines? thanks
None at all.
So like that d15 runs 75.5 vitara I’m trying to run a d16y8 which is I believe 75.0 so that’s what I should do? And what about the Notch when you ran with the skunk2 do you need to clear the notch or you had to notch it? (Keep in mind I don’t wanna bore more so I just wanna keep stock sleeves 75.0 and I don’t want to notch so I’ll just be running the no notch speed factory I want to know if I can get away with the skunk2 and not having to do that so what you guys think????
No, with the Skunk2 Rod's you have to notch the bottom of the cylinders and the girdle on a D16
Also if you're going to run the standard 75 mm Pistons it will be very noisy like a diesel when it's cold due to excessive piston to wall clearance (piston slap)
Which exact skunk2 should I be getting I see there is two the vitara spec and the other just says d16 (alpha connecting rods) and okay sounds like I’m notching I’m fine with it. And I guess I’m cool with the loud noise. I’m going to do more research on the girdle right now
On a D16 with Vitara Pistons use the Vitara spec rods
Dream come true thanks for all the info
I've loved this car ever since I seen it on TRC.💪💪👍👍👍
What bearings u using? Whats your oil pressure at idle when it gets really hot up to temp?
Acl 16-20 hot at idel
How long did u run the fresh motor to switched to the 20w 50 oil? Are those the hx bearings u have?
I run a non detergent 30 weight for the first & 2nd oil change about 50 miles then another oil change at 200 miles, then put in the 20w 50 and let it eat
D15 main bearing d16 rod bearings on this setup
D-Serious what are the mains gap to. Can I run factory.001 on mains and rods.
This build is massive
Nice
Helo Kenny, what is the part number for oil pan gasket for a 92-95 jdm d15b vtec motor? Or anyone knows what they use for a fit??
Thanks
Any new videos coming out soon?
yes, new bottom end build coming soon.
I have a question for you bro what head gasket should I run on my z6 ? 75.5 and what thickness should I run ??
I like OEM, Cometic, or JE proseal and you should run std .30 thick
@@hatchbackturbo93 ok thanks a lot man I wasn’t sure about the thickness I’ll run with cometic then
Hi, I’m a little confused, if the block is all stock then how are you using 75.5 mm pistons ? I thought it was 75mm from factory. Any feedback would be appreciated!
The block itself is stock meaning it doesn't have aftermarket sleeves, it has been bored .5 mm over and has aftermarket rods and pistons
D-Serious thank you !
Bad ass. Look forward to the budget 400 build.
my hatch looked the exact same way! down to the wheels lol except mine was wrecked before i got to build it
Nice runs at the track yesterday 💪🏽
Thanks man
I was shuting down early most runs once i was ahead. Last run he just had to much for me.
Great description dude, helped me a lot!
My friend just recommended me to watch this video and I’m curious, how much did everything cost?
It cost me around 6k to build with the 4piston head Which isn't needed (my best pass 10.56 @ 140.6 was on a head I ported) but i got a lot of parts 2nd hand including the turbo that i got for $200
