Need a confident vendor to rebuild a jdm d15b - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

Vr-4-Life · 03-06-2009, 01:16 PM

I was kicking around the idea of rebuilding or replacing the d15b in my car.

It smokes a lot and kind of bad at times. Other then that it pulls real hard and runs smoth. there are some misfires here and there at idle though.

I would like to get some ideas on the cost of rebuilding this motor.

Im thinking bearings, rings, possibly valve seals.

from my investigation i saw you can use d16z6 rings etc but i would exect you to confirm all the parts and do it right.

Please let me know asap via PM.

thanks guys!

i called them friday and talked a bit with one of the guys and then matt called me back yesterday. im going to take it there saturday so he can check out the motor. i may end up having them build the bottom end while its getting rebuilt.

Haha, I think I know why ur motor is having issues LOL

Someone may or may not have decided to take it apart in their garage at 2am and throw it back together by 7am. Drove the car to school at 7:30. Sometime during 2008 LOL I can neither confirm or deny this information.
