- Sat Dec 05, 2009 4:26 pm #160133 what motor does your car have in it right now?
We don't have the Breeze model in the US, so I'm not too familiar with it.

I'd guess it may be a D15b*something* but there's different versions.
We have the d15b7 and d15b8 here. If you have a D series engine, then it will be easy to swap in a D16z6 or JDM D15b engine. axles, mounts transmissions will all be the same. You will only need the engine, ecu, and engine harness. It's all plug & Play.
If you want to go with a B series DOHC motor, then I'd start researching that swap because it is more involved (axles, mounts, etc)

Do Not PM me your technical questions. Post them in the forum!

also yeah the breeze is a eg3? in the u.s i think?
so yeah thats the thing i would buy a motor and then go ah have to spend 1000$ on other shit haha im likng the sound of D16z6 i was interested in the D15b but it seems to me that it is a preety old motor and mabey the newer motors might have more power oh and if the engine is olderthen my car i will need to get a engineers report and that costs a fair bit ,
going with the B series DOHC sounds good but might be a much around ? for my dad and ito install haha thx for your sugestions

- Sun Dec 06, 2009 2:39 am #160190 a complete b16 swap from hmotorsonline.com will run around $2500, whereas a d15b or d16z6 long block ( cause you wont need axels, linkage, mounts,tranny, etc.) would be around $800. And they are peppy little motors as well. I had a couple D16z6's and they'll give you your speed fix, seeing as you have a 1.3l. If i was in your shoes i would go with a D16z6 or JDM d15b personally.
