What exactly are you looking for wiring?

We need to know year and I'm assuming your using your old head and I'm also assuming you have a gsr correct.

Ha, yeah, sorry I do do that sometimes, but my prices are less than half what everyone else charges and I'm more than willing to point people in the right direction to do it themselves. OP this page will be your best friend on wiring for your swap:

I don't know anything about that. If you want to add vtec, just get a vtec head complete with vtec solly and vtec pres. and there respect harness, p28 chipped ecu, golden eagle lsv b20v kit with headgasket, vtec waterpump, vtec timing belt and get the head tapped, the Dowel pins relocated and remove the scew in back of the head and u should be good to go. Oh don't forget head studs and bolts from arp
