The JDM equivalent is the D15B SOHC VTEC. Its 1.5L but it puts down the same power as its USDM counterpart. Plus you can get the OEM LSD for an extra $350

Oh ya, your link to wiredspeed doesn't work. Where was it supposed to go?

All D series turbo's will fit any D series (not sure about the ZC) but i guess that's why it says SOHC, since ZC is a dual cam D series, it wouldn't fit...The only thing that needs to be compatible with the engine itself is the manifold.

Yeah, the ZC is definitely different. You can make the manifolds fit with modifications, but you'd be better off doing a custom kit in that situation.

The DRAG kit is not the best kit to buy for a D series because the turbo is too big, it's not a bolt-on kit like the Greddy and Edelbrock kits, and it doesn't come with any real fuel management. The best thing about the DRAG kit is the piping, that's about it.

Get it if you're going to build the motor.

I agree, if your not sure about the turbo scene, and this is your first turbo, go with a direct bolt on. You're better off with a GReddy kit, they're much cheaper compared to those Drag kits aswell.

just go to a junkyard if they don't have one they can get on a locator program and find you one and get it to you in a couple days that is how I got my z6... B series is too expensive so I will boost my z6

I got a brand new D16Z6 block for my hatch on ebay for $390.00. It has never been used, then I had the head from my original D16Z6 rebuilt and slapped it on. Look on ebay man.
