1996 Honda Civic EX D16Y8 VTEC 0-60 (half-floored)

[Chan431]

weaaaak!

[batdad187]

wow... so you can film how slow your Honda is... Thanks I already figured it was! Can I have my 25 seconds back now?

[Saul0052]

Wow dats slow

[theglitchgod]

half floored. haha sure.

[revohm]

Turbo?

[LexusUSA1]

HAHA half floored my ass! You had that pedal 2 centimeters off the ground and you know it. Don't kid yourself.

[jk6869]

so what is your point? the car still slow......

[sctflasher379]

y would u do a 0 to 60 half floored? kinda defeats the purpose dont u think? lol

[fidodido996]

i thought the civic hx has vtec-e...am i wrong??

[bladeoz]

92-95 civic ex and Si(EG) had the z6 making 125hp not 127. From 1996 through 00 was the y8 with 127. Thank you bmwsiempre for knowing your stuff and not being like half the nubs out there.

P.S....i know im the asshole who recomments on a video thats over two years old haha.

[belizetj]

Wtf Man? How u gonna have a 0-60 vid without hitting vtec???

[bonnhew]

i have a civic ex too.. its a 97.. but it doesnt say Vtec on my engine.. does urs say vtec on the engine?

[AmacSTO92337]

@bonnhew if its an Ex its vtec..if not then it doesnt matter..mine doesnt neither but v-tec kicks in about 5500 rmp or so

[lalala11t6]

@bonnhew ur dumb

[bonnhew]

@lalala11t6 somebody else answered my question..

ur obviously the dummas haha

[shoecity420]

@bonnhew

the d16y8 doest say vtec on it but it has the vtec solenoid by the valve cover

[bonnhew]

@shoecity420 so it is a V-tec right?

[shoecity420]

@bonnhew yea only the 92-95eg si says vtec on the valve cover

[Sk8er2be101]

retarded

[myuzz]

9 seconds yay!

[murasame03]

How old r u again??

[xXxDANMANxXx]

still faster than my car (except its so slow that, half floored and floored are the same...)

[josemoses]

my balls is big, my dick is small, i get no bitches because i get no calls. (idk i was bored)

[oskar87A1]

half FLOORED

[360sk8t]

Okay. I have a completely stock D16y8 and I'm new to this. Do you think putting an AEM cold air and a Skunk2 intake manifold would do much to my car?

[31compton13]

yes it would no liee!

is it worth the money no

how much are you going to pay for it? like close to 500$ right?

go to ebay and buy a turbo kit for youre car its the best way to go and the turbos are good there everything you need!

[xSxDANxSx]

lol turbos will just blow up these engines.....i have a 99 Civic Si (canadian) with the d16y8 and it runs like a top. but no way in hell would it be able to handle boost. they are just not made for that kind of setup

[31compton13]

@xSxDANxSx they can handle it stock any car its just how much they are capable, run 5-7psi safelyy and if ur dangerous 10psi-11 thats the best way

[Emeianoite]

No they wont... bad tune will blow these baby's up. You can get a good 350whp on these.

[josemoses]

well you can tune it up to 700hp i read it on super street magazine a 1986 civic single cam that is boosted the fuck up and tune the fuck up

[HondaKillerG]

LOL That was a good laugh.

[CedrikTheManiac00]

@xSxDANxSx the d series can handle 5-6 psi for a fucking while

[xSxDANxSx]

@CedrikTheManiac00 Ok :p, you go boost your d-series, enjoy the maintenence!

[GavinVTEC]

@xSxDANxSx The D-Series engines can handle up to 10psi when driven daily.

[jfacFAN1]

yes, also run an exhaust, i would suggest 2.25" and whatever muffler you prefer and a high flow cat to match. it will wake it up, also the intake will add a nice hiss noise.

[360sk8t]

I already have an intake, well, short ram and I bought the car with a magnaflow exhaust system. I guess what I should get next is the intake manifold and the exhaust manifold.

[josemoses]

yea buddy but if i was you just save for another motor dont put too much money on a single cam

[DooKieJ11]

Yea I dnt really like my d16y8 either so I think Ima get me a b18b and get a gsr head so that I can have vtec also

[breaktrap0307]

if u want to put money into it, and run quick like 13s or so, it would cost 5 to 10 k. with a low boost turbo or middle, and some intervals work, like pistons rods valves, est. thats what im doing, but put that same money into a b series or k, bigger gains no doubt. d series is cheap, but can be quick with the right setup n money

[DooKieJ11]

Is a d16y8 worth building up or should I save my money and buy a b,h or k series motor??? I dnt wanna put tons of money into it I jus wanna be quicker than wut it is and hold up against most cars

[breaktrap0307]

i just got a 1998 hodna civic ex too, be asking myself the same question, ive come to the conclustion that im going to put some money into it but not a whole lot, if d series blows engine cuss of turbo, there cheap to replace, but b series or k or h, it WOULD cost a lot of money, not to mention the money and labour into having it into ur car, i think its worthy with the right work and setup. but it is d series

[mrholdean]

sohc vtecs go really slow compared to the dohc vtecs. trust me I own a D16Y civic :(

but the best thing to do is replace it with a B18c or B18cr as the engine mounts are similar and it goes a LOT faster

[DooKieJ11]

Does the 96 civic ex come with v-tec ???? I know it's sohc but I wanna know if it's vtec

[p1n0yBalleR]

yeh its v-tec if its a 96 ex with the stock motor.

[josemoses]

yes sir

[murasame03]

shift gear to fast man.....

bwahahaha....

[ball4life850]

right..... so what the fuck is the point of a 0-60 run if you're not flooring it....

[MangoSmoothie16]

@ball4life850 it would be embarrassingly slow if he floored it

[josh666675]

@ball4life850 lmao because that is floored lol.

[xandu88]

@ball4life850 so people can see how this car handle as a daily drive car. do you floor your car on every lights/stops?

[froggyfireman]

@xandu88 yes i do.....

[xxnissansilviaxx]

is it hard to install the headers? and the cold air? wen its hot does it lose power cuz of the cold air?

[DLoc137]

no haha...its all bolt ons, you dont even need a lift, allthough for the header its preferred cus you can do the job in half the time. but all there is for the intake is you remove two bolts, and pull out the air box. then proceed to rip off the gross ass tubing, then put your reducer on your new piping with the two hose clamps on it...squeeze it in there tighten it up and slide the filter on and tighten that hose clamp...

[DLoc137]

then the header you just remove teh heat shield with two rusty bolts that it doesnt matter if you break because you wont use they again anyway, then there is 9 other bolts holding the header into place, remove those and then get under your car and unhook the 2nd piece from the cat with two bolts and drop it out from under the car. if the old gasket doesnt come off you'll need a chisel and scrape it off, then apply new gasket and header and start it up 20secs, shut off & retighten your bolts.

[bighitter00]

is this kid serious?

[bimmerM3003]

lol thats all the way floored but ur just not redlining it haha

[djm24210]

Shut the fuck up you are all pussys that ill blow the fuck out any day

[03SilverMustangGT]

LOL got a bunch of nerds in here, "i got a K series, no its a H2berf," "it was only half floored" I'll bet you say that when you race and loose, "I didn't try!" lol sell your pos and get a v8

[josemoses]

i seen a crusty ugly ass cheap civic beat a mustang lol a small engine vs a big bad engine and who wins of course honda lol it's very sad how ponytang lose by a honda

[1t2r3a4v]

Good lord dude. Yall dont have anything better to do then write a fucking essay??? Besides. my d series 97 honda LX 4 door would shit on yall- HA

[extemeaggression]

you gotta work with what you got. personally, the d16y8 is what im running. and i have handed a b16 turbo an ass whoopin that sent him home with his tail between his legs. its not what you have, its what you do with what you have. if you calculate it right if you mod a d series and a b series the exact same the b only has 17 more horsepower than the d. so get it right next time and get off the fucking tube and go work on your own shit and quit raggin on other people's

[cool12291]

ur lying. ur d16y8 did not hand a b16 turbo. u urself most be running a turbo also and pushing over a bar. unless the b16 is crap and its running minimim boost (5psi)

[extemeaggression]

oh im sure you can call me a liar seeing how you have no idea what i am running. and yes i am running far over a bar. 35psi full boost. thats as far as i want to push it. and i never said that any d16y8 would hand a b16 its ass but i did say mine will. and it has done it many more times than once. and will continue until my motor blows then im going to build something else.

[extemeaggression]

see the thing about the these so called real racers. you think the only way to have a good powerful engine is to build a B or H series. you stupid fucks. only an idiot would go buy an H or B series and build it other than the D series. yea they do start off with more horsepower but when it really comes down to it you could take that 4 or 5 grand that your retarded ass spent on a B or H series and dump it into a D and whoop your ass. one more cam dont mean shit.

[youboobzer]

Obviously you've only owned a d-series. There is a reason the Integra went from a d series to a b, the b-series fucking rocks. The difference from a d16 anything to a b-series w/ vtec is about 50hp stock, that's a substantial difference. Not to mention the b-series has about a million smaller things about it that remain superior. Don't get me wrong, the d-series are fun and cheap. I've built them up myself, but no comparison please and thank you.

[phateracing]

That's why you get an F22 out of an accord. And put it in a hatch. With a turbo. ARP headstuds and a good tune, and that $100 engine will take 14 pounds of boost, making more torque than horsepower with a great powerband through the midrange.

If that gets boring, you can put H22 heads on them, and make stupid power. An F22 with a built bottom end and a turbo install costs about the same as a stock H, and will smoke one. Wont rev as high, but it doesn't have to.

[cool12291]

u sure know ur stuff...f22b has very low compression. no one knows there potential. their internals are super strong especially their sleeves, iron cast, best sohc head flow. man f22b is a VERY good sohc

[XxKuranxX]

dude dont be shy of burring the needle...shift at least pass 6 grand!

[0to60in16seconds]

in the us the 1996 civic ex did not have a d16y8

it had a d16z6 single cam vtec making 127hp

[bmwsiempre]

uh yeah they did...there's even a stamp on the transmission housing and a sticker on the engine block that says "D16Y8"...

[getignited114]

yep, i have the same car and its def a d16y8... lol gotta hate the dumb ass's on here sometimes...

[justinbricker]

yea, i agree, i have a 96' EX as well, Deff a d16y8, Idiots, do ur research b4 u open ur mouth....

[shortstop12088]

you fucking idiot z6 and y8 are pretty much the same anways so why in the fuck would it matter. This gen has the y8 and i think this guy knows what he has

[raidacaipo]

wow you claim you build D series motors to 403whp but you cant even get your shit right by saying that the us "1996 civic ex did not have a d16y8 it had a d16z6" wrong.. d16z6 only comes off the 92-95 civic si, ex, and del sol Si... please stop posting stupid comments in this video especially when you dont know what the fuck your talking about.. everyone else already made you look stupid on that dumb comment and I dont want to have to do it again.

[namesMikeG]

@0to60in16seconds

I have a 96 ex, and guess what it has? d16y8

[240sxmetal]

@0to60in16seconds You tried, you really tried. But they stopped putting the D16z6 in after '95. Oh yeah... One more fun fact. z6 is NON VTEC so... I recommend not contradicting yourself when trying to talk facts.

[mpgattuso1]

@240sxmetal Actually the D16z6 does in fact have vtec. I own a 1995 honda civic ex. I should know. Vtec crossover is 4800 rpms with a redline of 7200. 

[240sxmetal]

@mpgattuso1 I stand corrected! You're right the Z6 does have V-tec. Found that out today from my buddies 93 SI hatch back haha. Hey, every one makes mistakes.

[mpgattuso1]

@240sxmetal Haha no problem. It's a good motor especially in a lightweight applications.

[240sxmetal]

@mpgattuso1 Truth, and reading up a little more so I don't make this mistake twice, I find that the Z6 makes more power then the Y8 (A WHOPPING 3 stock...) Makes me wounder why they did that...

[CedrikTheManiac00]

@240sxmetal the sohc zc as vtec, the twin cam zc does not have vtec...

[Buskirkzz]

@0to60in16seconds I guess thats why my 1999 civic ex does infact have one then, correct? because they don't have them in the u.s.?

[0to60in16seconds]

@Buskirkzz you are a fucking ass bag!

[paintball1818]

idk if youve noticed but the d16y8 isnt a vtec its the stock honda engine for civics and accords

[bmwsiempre]

uh yeah it is. the ex versions of the civics are d16y8's which have vtec as opposed to the non-vtec d16y7 and d16y6 in the dx,lx,and hx models.

[JDMallGoNoshow]

bmwsiempre...a d16y6 isn't even a united states offered motor so why mention it, and how can it or a d16y7 come in an hx civic when the hx is a d16y5 vtec-e?

[dody116]

your full of shit. i have a 98 ex and my sister has a 98 lx there motors are not anything alike. get your facts straight. my caris way faster than hers.

[CedrikTheManiac00]

@dody116 the engine is about exactly the same...... only yours have vtec

[dody116]

your full of crap my sister has a 98 lx i have a 98 ex and my other sister has a dx. my cars faster than the dx and lx stock.

[guyolivier]

it is vtec

[civicman96]

dude you should learn your shit if your going to talk shit

[s13kadrfter]

did you do research?

[CrazeeJester18]

you hit VTEC in second gear

[LLCoolPass]

5500 in second gear is not casual

:P

[lmfwao]

does anhyone have msn!!! msg me my live id is jane23belle H

[87dohcRS]

all 92-00 sohc vtec heads can use either valve cover , alot of times people take the d16z6 vtec valve cover and throw it on there y8's , god you people are slow

[hokiesfan070507]

hey bspec its all 96-2000 ex's that have the vtec

[uzaqq]

no your wrong lmao

[cryptsub]

I bought my 1996 4-door EX in February this year with 49.5k miles on the odo. I lucked out. This one in the vid has 140,000 and is still kicking ass.

[SSSILV3RADO]

How U Know Is A VTEC If It Doesnt Say It On Engine??

[mrlaocean]

Read it on the block or look for the VTEC solenoid.

[uzaqq]

rookies lol look for the vtec solenoid.. all ex's have sohc vtec the 92-95 says vtec on it 96-00 doesnt

[mangaliewa]

wikipedia car, listen to the engine after 5500(depend on the car as well) RMP if it sounded different, look at the engine code, if you have alot of time( am serious) take the engien apart and look at the cam shaft

[RePpInG419]

i got a 96 civic ex to but mines auto fuckin sucks i got a exhaust and intake for it

[mangaliewa]

me too, but now i have inteagra gsr

[willisjdeck15]

does it say vtec on the engine because my 96 civic ex just says honda on it

[bmwsiempre]

same here, honda didn't start putting 'vtec' on the engine until the 2001 new body style models.

[willisjdeck15]

good, im glad that i know mines got vtec then

[uzaqq]

ya the only way you can tell is if you have an ex right??

[bmwsiempre]

you got it!

[raidacaipo]

if you wanna know if yoiu have an ex just look at the engine stamp on the transmission when you open up ur hood.. it should say d16y8

[uzaqq]

ya i kno thanx, but some d16y8 motors have vtec stamped on the motor like the 94ex model

[raidacaipo]

those are the lucky ones

[bspec08]

Yeah Right.... all 92-95 ex has vtec on the engine....

[v10viper04]

11 sec "half floored" and what about full throttle probably a 9? VTEC's are overrated big time. They arn't even good.

[raidacaipo]

this is a D series motor... they are not racing series engines.. if anything they are the slowest of all the series.. if you really wanna check out honda performance and judge then look for B,H or K series honda engines.. type in K20a, B18C-R or H2B or H22a on youtube search..

[0to60in16seconds]

fuck you

the dirty d is where it's at

you don't know shit you fucking ricer

you think the k20's ar whats up

haha

nimrod

[raidacaipo]

the dirty ds? are you a fucken idiot? You wanna turbo your D series with stock internals to make only 200whp? Shut your mouth idiot.. A built B, H or K series will always be better than a d series you fucken cheap ass.. get some money and build a motor.. People who say D series are the shit are usually broke ass fags who cant do shit but turbo their D series for quick power.. Learn to build some shit then come back and talk .. idiot.. if you want single cams then stick with the F23a

[raidacaipo]

I didnt just say K20 motors idiot.. I said "look for B,H or K series honda engines.. type in K20a, B18C-R or H2B or H22a on youtube search.. " do you know how to read you fucken "nimrod"???? you dont even have any race videos. At least I have an ls vtec video you aint got shit but alot of talk but no knowledge.

[0to60in16seconds]

i have more knowledge than you could imagine

i work on honda's on a daily basis

and instead of video taping shit

i spend my time working on my shit

right now im working on finding the limits on a stock d16z6 (with vitara pistons and eagle rods) with a holset hy35 with hx35 12cm exhaust housing, takes longer to spool but is more efficient at higher pressures

so far i have it tuned for 23psi making 403whp and 328ft-lbs of torque

and full boost by 4100rpm (revving to 7400rpm)

[raidacaipo]

claiming 403 on a built D block with no video to prove it.. saying you tuned it to 23psi for what? maybe 4 track runs then it blows up.. Your an idiot if you think you cant make the same numbers and more on a dohc.. you have more knowledge than we could imagine?.. lol no wonder your name is o to 60 in 16 seconds.. are you stupid? 16 seconds? and you think thats fast? okay just stick with boosting D series. Btw everyone works on their hondas on a daily basis. your nothing special.

[0to60in16seconds]

i never said you coudn't make the same numbers on a dohc honda

im just saying the smaller displacement single cam hondas are more difficult (yet still cheaper)

to build thus more rewording when finished

do none of you people build your own shit and take pride in being different

i mean everyone has a b,h,k series high dollar shoppe built car

but building a d series for under $800 and running 11's is really rewording

you should try it

[raidacaipo]

but your claiming the D series as the King or something when clearly a slightly built B, H or K series will own over a heavily build D series. To make a D series run 400whp is going to cost way more money than to have a build B, H or K series because they are already strong and just need a few upgrades. There's no such thing as building a D series for $800 and making it run 11's. Thats bullshit and you know it. Believe me I been in the game as long as anyone so dont try to pull that shit on me.

[0to60in16seconds]

no i know of menny people that have gotten in to the high 10's with under $1000 in a d series

no including clutch axles and slicks

then just finding the lightest civic hatch you can and stripping it to as light as possible and a good driver

it's not impossible your just not good enough

[raidacaipo]

Also just because someone says k series are the shit doesnt mean they are ricers. K series is what gave hondas respect. Domestic heads now look at a hatch and think "is he running a K20?" and challenge them. Before it was like "fuck it, its just a honda that shits slow" besides a K series is not overrated its just hella expensive. We are talking k20a2 with Hondata Kpro, a few bolt ons, and a good tune. But I have to admit a slightly build H2b will shit on a k20 all day. Believe me.

[youboobzer]

LOL what fantasy world do you live in? To run 11's with a d-series motor you need a turbo/super/NOS... enough of any of those will get you there, but if your not going to replace rods and pistons with forged counterparts, your going to blow up. Meaning your spending $2000 easy for a basic turbo setup. Maybe if you gut your car, break out the glass, spend 3-4k on building the motor, you could hit 12's naturally aspirated. Good Luck

[0to60in16seconds]

no

$200 for a holset hx35

$300 for vitara pistons

$250 for rods,rod bolts,berrings and wrist pins

and the other $150 for injectors (2 sets of dsm 450cc injectors for $50 used)

and just street tune and burn a p28

and your good for arroun 400whp and thats plenty of power to get a 1600lbs car in the 10's no problem!

[bseand]

i have a 1996 civic 1.4i ..does it have vtec?

[bmwsiempre]

I don't believe so, I'm unfamiliar with those models as they do not sell them in the US market, but I did some research and couldn't find anything to disprove my assumption.

But if your car has VTEC you would probably know, the engine note changes dramatically after a certain RPM (5500 for my D16Y8) and it seems as though the car gains a few bhp.

[bseand]

thanks

[jose645]

is a honda civic edm n no it doesnt have vtec its a slow engine i researched it n the fastest 1.4 engine has 90hp correct me if im wrong

[drewce123]

does the civic 1996 ex have vtec? please reply thanks

[bmwsiempre]

yeah it does, the engine is a D16Y8, which has vtec.

[bmwsiempre]

to show a comparison to my WOT 0-60 vid.

[arman757]

i have one question only, wtf is the point of posted a vid of your car half floored

[ohshiiittt]

cant get much faster than that...
