Hi guys, I hate to start another thread about a D16Z6 build. But it seams like all the ones I come across are dead or not around my goals. I recently purchased another 91 crx and plan on putting in a Z6. I know there will be a lot of people saying just drop in a B18 or B16. That's not what I want to do. I have rebuilt engines before but never to gain horse power, just simple rebuilds. My goal for this build is between 150 hp to 180 hp, then maybe a turbo down the road if im lucky. I'm not looking to drop a ton of money into this project. This car will be used as a daily driver and will be ran on 91 octane gas. I'm not sure where to start and need a push in the right direction. I have done some research on building a Z6 and came up with a confusing mess of answers. If you guys could help me out it would be greatly appreciated.
The list below is what I have came up with on my own. Some things I'm unsure of are. Piston size and type, rod length, injectors, compression that I need, valve job or no valve job, cam and cam gear, ECU, cold weather start problems, fuel pump, fuel rail. If you guys have any input on what might be better feel free to post your opinion. This is my first build so I'm unsure of what I need or looking for.
Vitara pistons
Eagle h-beam rods
ARP head studs
3 valve job
MSD ignition box and dizzy cap
These are just somethings that I see a lot on different discussion boards and though it was a good place to start.
