Tell me everything you know about the zc engine. Whatever it is. Is it slow fast does she boot??? it's in my rex oh ya it's dohc!

It came in the JDM 1988-91 Honda Civic/CRX Si, It's rated at 135hp, some sources say 129. With bolt on's you should be somewhere in the 15's, I would say mid, so it's not too bad. It's a D-series engine, so headers from the D-series will fit on it but they will require the exhaust ports to be matched as they are a little off. Anything else you want to know?

Oh and people have had good results with adding boost to the ZC. The Greddy 92-95 civic kit was actually designed for the ZC at first, so it bolt's right on.

How many bolt ons can you put on? Could i reach 200hp? whats the diff between zc and b16a? Does zc stand a chance?

LOL, they dont compare at all. Zc's are slow, plain and simple. But hey, i guess if you think a mid 15 second car is fast then be my guest swap it. If you want an "alright" accelerating car, get the b16 over the zc, at least you'll be in the 14's

or boost a zc and get low 14's...fairly cheap...a zc with botl ons' woudl net a low 15 sec pass...would run with type r's stomp sir's and gsr's not super fast but fast enough for most and a zc will run with a b16 cause it has a better powerband..the b16 dosent' coem on till 6500 where you are almsot shiftign then int eh zc so it only pulls away from third on...

Well i get to test it out for the first time tomorrow! All legit now!

slightlymodifie

good for u trust me legit is the only way to go (4 tikets for not being), but honestly if u want a insanely fun car to drive get a B16a so much fun to drive no question, but keep the speed down tickets suck!!!!!
