Honda D engine
The Honda D-Motor was installed in various compact cars from Honda. You can mostly find it in the Civic, but also in the Integra , Logo , CRX , Stream and some other models. The displacement ranges from 1.2 to 1.7 l and the engines are available in SOHC and DOHC versions. Some SOHC models are equipped with VTEC . The power range extends from 64 to 136 hp. Production started in 1986 and ended in 2005 with the launch of the eighth generation Civic.
Mini-Me
One of the most popular and effective ways to get more power out of a D-Series engine is to swap the cylinder head. The cylinder head of the built-in engine is swapped for that of a more powerful D-series engine. Usually this happens between D16A6 and D16Z6 motors or between D16Y7 and D16Y8 motors. The Z6 as well as the Y8 cylinder head have VTEC and bring a significant increase in performance compared to the series engine.
The process of swapping is known as "Mini-Me". A Mini-Me is popular because it achieves a noticeable increase in performance through comparatively low costs (which is not least due to the VTEC).
Engine specifications
D13
D13B1 and D13B2 engines are equipped with individual carburetors. With D13B4 and D13B7 engines, PGM-FI is responsible for the fuel control.

D16
The D16A9 and D16Z5 have two overhead camshafts (DOHC), while all other D16 engines are SOHC engines. In contrast to all other engines, the D16A9 also has no catalytic converter, which results in the 7 hp difference in output compared to the otherwise structurally identical D16Z5.

ZC
Some D-Series engines are labeled "ZC" but are not really a separate series. There are both SOHC and DOHC-ZC engines. The first ZC engine in Germany was the ZC1 with 92 kW at 6500 min −1 from 1579 cm³ displacement, which was installed in the Honda CRX AS 1986–1987.
