- Tue Jan 10, 2012 2:59 am #289254 so, i FINALLY got all my lines fixed/hooked up. swapped in a d15b7 to my hatch.. here's my specs.

'93 hatch CX
swapped d15b7
d16z6 intake mani and throttle body
p06 ecu


when i start my car, there is a small amount of "blueish/grayish" smoke.. which is oil, i know. but when i accel or decel i DUMP stupid amounts of oil. but, i don't seem to be losing any oil. so it has to be a small amount. does that sound like valve seal or rings? very similar to the video i am posting below. but mine is more smoke than that.. hoping someone can shed some light on this.

- Tue Jan 10, 2012 4:57 am #289261 The way to tell is to do a compression test. Record the #'s and then squirt a little oil in each cyl. The oil will help seal the gap of the rings if they are worn. So if your compression #'s are higher after squirtiing the oil, then it is the rings.
If it is the same, then it is the valve seals.

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

- Wed Jan 11, 2012 1:13 pm #289452 nothing yet. i gotta wait until payday. because i'll need to buy a compression tester, and hopefully just vss. if it's rings, i'm just ordering a "new" motor.

- Wed Jan 11, 2012 5:50 pm #289483 had a jdm d15b lined up. kid wanted $400, i offered $450 if he'd hold it. he said, "my buddy has $400 cash and can get it to me Friday, so i'm selling to him."


i responded with, "fuck off you craigslist faggot."




Zerolift won't respond to my emails or phone calls, so it looks like i have to wait 2 more weeks to order it from TigerJap.

Have you gotten a quote from hmotorsonline.com? they have been great from what i've heard.

- Wed Jan 11, 2012 6:58 pm #289512 Hmotors wants 7 or 800 for just the motor. I can get it from TJap for 700 shipped to my door.
