I want to know which head gasket would fit the Jdm D15b 3stage vtec engine

The D15b is essentially a VX block with a EX/Si Head. Majority of the internal parts are unique and cannot be found in the US, but your common maintenance parts are. Parts for the head are for a D16z6 (EX/Si) and the parts for the block are for a D15z1 (VX).

Therefore you will need a Headgasket for a D15z1 or one from a 1992-1995 Honda Civic VX with VTEC-E. The -E is the important part. These are regurarlly stocked at most auto part stores in the US around me.

You can use the y8 intake manifold, however if you are installing this into a 92-95 civic you can not use the y8 ecu. You will want a p28 out of a 92-95 civic ex/si, it powers the single can d16z6. You can also use a chipped ecu with a p28 map on it.

If your installing this in a 96-00 civic than you can use the ecu from a d16y8
