difference between EK3 Mi and Vi

[amdfaisal]

yo guys...

what are the similarities (engine) between and EK3 Mi and Vi?

I am planning to get an EK3 Mi which is powered by a D15B non vtec. is it possible to swap the head D15B non vtec with the one from a D15B 3-stage vtec. if it possible what are other changes that must be made. ECU of course... gearbox????, anything else??

Thank you

why must get Mi? the airbox is different, plus the power (105ps vs 130ps if i'm not mistaken) difference is enough 2 make any potential buyer think twice :)

it is tru that i should get a Vi directly but 99 spec Vi are really hard to get la. anyway the Mi i'm getting is in very good condition and very low mileage

generally Mi is cheaper than Vi due to lower specs....get the Mi then put in B16A better....

 

[amdfaisal]

get Mi then put B16A... best thing to do la but must find B16A engine from halfcut that has 2 airbags n ABS la. if not rugi la since the car has them. anyway... converting to B16A is still my ultimate goal. play first with this D15B then if kaya enuf go B16A la :)

then better keep the money u plan on spending on the D15B for now ler....keep it standard and good running condition enuff oledi....use the money for B16A later....

target aku K20A la brader. snoop demo nok jual engin demo ke kawe dok??? muroh2 doh la. :D

 

[udengfahlawi]

K20A into EK3?...i read sumwher u hafta let go the power steering and aircond...if u ok with that, then go ahead ler...K20A into ES is ok, like the Honda MME one....

 

[amdfaisal]

if let go of power steering and aircond then no good la. but must check first. engine mounts from hasport are really expensive. USD639++. if the ringgit is repegged higher then might be more affordable
