Found ARP headstuds for D17's (They fitted pics inc.)
 

There were always there just needed to do some digging.
The Honda Factory part number for D17 lx is
HP 9005-PM3-00
The 95 civic si 1.6 vtec D16 engine uses the same Honda factory bolts.
ARP makes studs for this engine and it will fit ours.
ARP part # 2084301 Honda D-16 HSK for 1.6 SHOC vtec application. 10 studs
NOTE: ARP makes two types Z&Y (OURS is Z)
All 88 thru 95 civics and others with same engine use the same type of head bolts.

Mine are installed and work just fine.
Prices range from $125 to $150
For dose that can't wait I located two sets here in Florida.

Awesome. This is one of the things they wanted all the measurements for at ARP, was to compare and see if there was an existing head stud that would work. They have the measurements, but have not yet gotten back to me.

Try it out, and if it works for sure, I'll call my contact at ARP back and all they'll have to do is put a new line in their catalog.

Damnit and I just put my head on yesterday w/ new factory ones.....

Sorry bud I just putted on my thinking hat yesterday :hgrin:

friggin sweet supermex. I was wondering if it could be that easy. Let me know I'll order some right after I know for sure if it will work. Id like to get my car back together asap. thanks

I'll know for sure tomorrow!

good find :clap:

Is official
They will do the job
ARP part #208- 4301
Honda D-16
10mm HSK

Badass! No more waiting!

I called ARP to let them know, they said they'll start putting the 01+ Civic's in the catalog with this part number from now on.

sweet I'm ordering them now

I got them for $91 shipped on ebay. Which is good cause I needed to save a lil money. I bought so much stuff I dont have a lot left, but thats pretty much it now besides a dyno tune.

Cool I'm glad I could save you some money.
I found them at Titans in O-town for $85 but they were out of stock and I realy wanted it to see them and compare just to be sure.
So I paid full retail :_doh:
Any way they have two more on stock.

thanx for the help though cause I havent had the time to mess with part numbers and figuring that lil dillema out. Saves us all a lot of time and its appreciated.

My head is now reinforced so I can continue my quest to boost.

for those buying these bolts... what else do you plan on doing to better accomodate this benefit?

def. gonna get theese head bolts before I install my boost. It might push back my install date a little but i'de rather get theese and the nippon leakless head gasket,so i can run 10 psi a little safer. It's gonna take alot to keep up with spdrcrchk.
supermex is that that part number for the ex?

Im using kms headgasket and blockguard for now with the studs till im sleeved

I don't know about the other guys but I done Titanum oversized valves, retainers,springs and port polished the head.
I also got a shop doing thermal cycling to all the non titanum parts before installing.

My car was running just fine but is on the shop now getting a custom turbo set up.
So we removed the head once again out, just to change the bolts to ARP studs so that this wouldn't be a concern down the road.

And the part number holds true for EX and LX.

Is all installed and here is pic of it.
Best $120 I spended and this ARP studs are reusable.

Nice man

nice mine will be here tomorrow

hey guys well i blew my head gasket so i just got done ordering the head gasket set along with the nippon leakless from majestic honda. i got the D16z headbolts from summit racing, 90.00 shipped. does anyone know the TOURQUE SPEC for the headbolts???????

I got the ARP headstuds installed. w00t :)

Robo:
I wish I can help you, but my service book is at the shop Dynamic Speedlab and I don't remember it at the top of my hand.
Someone here surely has the book handy.
Make sure you also follow the sequence of the bolt tighting.


Nice going Gotti :tup:
Can you help Robo with the torque specs?

thanks for the info.

awesome, thanks man, i was totally in the dark about the sequence and the tourque. btw, when i talked to the guy at summit, he said the D17z's were not HEADBOLTS, but HEADSTUDS. i did order the right thing, correct? im pretty sure that the studs are stronger then bolts, so i guess it makes sense. can anyone clear this up?

also, where can I get that handy dandy service manual?

You want headstuds, not bolts.

Get the service manual at http://www.helminc.com/.

dam they are expensive!
