95 dx to vtec question
hi all, i have a 95 dx hatch and i want to make it into vtec. i dont want to run wires so for that i read that i have to get the enginge harness from a EX or SI with a p28. i have the p28 and i found a harness from a SI, my question, is that all i need? or do i need an inside harness as well that goes to the ecu? the guy who is selling it said its only the outside not the inside. i searched and didnt find any answers all i can find is "get an SI harness". thanks in advance.

Re: 95 dx to vtec question
you need the wiring harness for the engine (im assuming your putting a d16z6 in?)
then you either need to, wire vtec from the passenger side shock tower plugs to the ECU, OR use the wiring harness from an ex or si civic, or any 1992 made civic
all 1992 made civics were prewired for vtec, post 92 were not
my suggestions is use a d16z6 harness (assuming thats what your putting in)
and just wire it in from the shock tower to the ECU, that is much easier and much cheaper

Re: 95 dx to vtec question
coo thanks, that makes sense. is there something i have to look for to know its a VTEC harness and not a NON VTEC one? i know easiest way would be to compare it to mine but im picking it up after work and i dont have my car with me.
