Default D series swaps

Im looking to pull out my b7 and drop in somthing else but im looking for pretty much a straight drop in. Like a d15b or a d16z6 which of the two would be better. is the wiring just plug in? im already aware about the vtec wiring i just want to know what could be done the easiest, or what you think would be better

they're the same.


i'd go for the z6 though, seem to have more of an aftermarket support.

i dunno about the same, i think that extra 0.1L of displacement could win you some races

but i do agree, go with the Z6.

Easiest swap in your car would be an obd1 ls i would think, but they are all pretty simple

you'd need bseries shift linkages, axles/im shaft, ecu, and mounts.

i'd go with the z6.. you'd have to wire vtec up but that's only 2 wires.. everything else would work just fine.
