Wow, thank you very much! Makes me think I should look for a mint condition GSL-SE for the swap to do the engine justice, but I suppose an S model with an LSD disc brake rear swap is just as good because it's a lighter total package. It's already got the GSL-SE fuel tank.

 

D001 I guess it is the first D series

Andrew

 

Andrew, here's your info on D001. For future reference, All D and E-code engines are part of the second production run, starting in February 1994. Pre-A through C are part of the first production run, beginning January 1990

JCES-100001
Built on 2/23/1994 (Pisces)
Type SX with 20B-REW
Exterior code: D2 (check with shcolor.info for details)
Interior Code: JA1 (Dark Gray)
Type-STE Cloth Seats (only on SX and 13B-CCS cars)
GPS-Equipped
With LSD

If someone could hook me up with dimension and angle measurements from their Banzai 20b FC engine mounts, I'd be VERY appreciative. J.Voorhees is getting restless lol.

Also, if anyone wants to know when their SA/FB, FC or FD was made and the original options, please let me know too. I'll also tell you the vin range for japan-market cars built on that day too.

Something else I found out is that some of the very first few FDs in Japan (10/91 run start date) were painted Shade Green too. When I find a matching vin tonight, I'll post a chassis number for everyone.

 

Just got D171 in from Japan

 

You can know this from the engine number?
If so how about A991?
I mostly care about the year of manufacture.

Thanks

 

Akagis thank you!! Realy cool info. I always wondered now I know :-)

for the mounts I have the original 20B mount on the driver side and a custom made one for the passanger side sitting on the stock FD mounts. Sorry I can't be of help...

Andrew

 

That was rude to skip me

 

Andrew, you're using a regular FD transmission, right? If that's the case, could you get some pics and measurements? One of my best friends is itching to go 20b in his FD too and could use a nice, simple mounting solution like yours sounds.

Japan2LA, the D171 was made on December 22, 1994
Lucrum, A991 is May 19, 1990
SteveSimon: B301 is August 7, 1990

Anyway, I'd really appreciate something for tracking the info down. Paypal is cd9asherwoodATyahoo.com and all proceeds will be going towards getting the murderer 20b (friday the 13th haha) going in my FC

 

I will send you a couple bucks..

D171 is F.S. BTW

 

I'm using A775 in the racecar.

BigAl...

 

WOW the D series are spread out pretty far in between builds. Could you check mine? D133 here!


Money sent!

 

Money sent also: C339 here! This is pretty cool

 

Heres another one... for fun
D999

 

Some good info.

They made an E series right? I wonder what the last E series number was.

 

I have D643.

 

To akagis, I'm getting my car up on a lift to work on it during winter. I'll take some pics with some measurements. I can tell u that I'm using a stock fd transmission and because the engine is mounted on stock engine subframe I have custom oil pan, drive shaft and ppf shortened by about 6 inches. The shifter is in the stock location because I custom harm that connects to the tranny was built. You will have to be patient because this operation is going to take some time, I don't mind sharing what I have.
