What is the HP?
 

Does anyone know what the Hp is for the stock 1.5 sohc and the
zc dohc is?

this belongs in the Civic forum. this is for questions or comments about the Web site not car.

1.5 = 109Hp. zc i beleive is 125. correct me if im wrong fellas.

Well if the 1.5 is 109 and the zc is 125 ,
do you guys think $500 +s&h is worth it?

thats your call. If heard the 1.5 don't respond well to mods at all, whereas the dohc ZC, will do much better. I beleive there is another advantage with having DOHC, but I don't know what it is.

well i know with a dohc i can put turbo on it bigger cam's gears and all that .

and the 1.5 you just s.o.l ( lol )

and i forgot to add for the 500 i get the tran: and the ecu.
the more i think about it the more i think i may get it.


thanks guys for your input.

i'd get it(the dohc ZC)

well actually how much is a b18b swap?

1.5K

The Dohc ZC is crap - good luck finding parts for it after you swap it in . . . and it wont pass Cali Smog either.

IMO, D16Z > ZC (and that means a lot coming from me :chicken: )

The SOHC ZC is a much better engine. The D16's are pretty damn good to. My 88' DX HB has a D15 in it that puts out 92hp stock. As for a turbo, np, you can turbo and D series very easily, and for less then a B series. That applies to the ZC's too, especially the SOHC. I've heard that the DOHC's are crap and a waste.

500 isn't bad for ZC with Tranny and ECU. Do you need the tranny? As for the shipping check with the person, most engines can be shipped for about 200$. Some peole charge as much as 400-600$ just for shipping. This is where the seller makes his money. Find out if it's any cheaper without the Tranny. (that is if you don't need it.)

What are you packing now, engine and tranny?

how do you know

Depends on what 1.5L u are talking about. The D15B8 found in USDM 5th gen Civics make 70HP and has only 8 valves. The JDM D15B makes 130HP. There are a couple different D15 configurations.

my 92-95 D15 was only 109.

92 Civic CX D15B8 made a rip roaring 70HP in mine before I swapped it out.

Right now i onlt have the stock 1.5 sohc d15 and trann:

YA i have the slow a$$ one i went to the hond place and they looked it up for me i have a kick a$$ 92 hp going on..
lol..
