Default Can you use stock VX harness for B-series swap?

Can you still use the VX harness for a b-series swap since its already wired for VTEC? If sp, what about the 4wire o2 sensor?

its always recommended to use the harness out of your car, not the one that came with the engine. I used an ex and si harness for a b16 and b18 no problems. You may need to run just 1 wire for knock sensor

yes, you can use you vx wire harness. all you have to do is switch the 5 wires o2 to 4 wires o2, and run you a knock sensor. all those wires can be done at the passenger shock tower. and if you do a gsr swap. you have to swap out the 2 wires for iab at the ecu from a20 to a17.

cant just plug it in. you need to modify the stock vx harness to plug in a 4 wire. do a search.
