i know it will fit, ive just got 2 questions, can i use my origional D15's CVs, and could i get some information about wireing the vtec, i was handed a full engine and tranny, its got more power than my 15 so i gotta swap it

schardbody

your cv axles will work, as for wiring vtec, SEARCH "wiring vtec" i bet you get thousands of responses.

how do I make my VTEC work?
The P28 ECU plugs right in, you all you’ll need to do is wire the VTEC up. First, you’ll need to get an engine plug from a junkyard for the VTEC solenoid oil pressure.

You’ll need to run the blue wire (or whichever color is from the plug) to pin D6, and then run the black ground wire from the plug to anywhere on the motor. You then need to run the green wire from the VTEC solenoid to pin A4.

thanks man, and i searched through everything that my car fell into and i didnt find it, you were alot of help, thanks again

EG2Driver

no need to worry you car is wired for VTEC already!

All del sols are prewired for it.

dark_samurai73

that a joke? or is there actually something i didnt know about my S, the engine in the car isnt a vtec motor, i shoudlnt be wired for it

It's pre-wired. Go to Rytech and buy the proper harnesses.

sasser43

All the civics and del sols are prewired between any trim model. Ex: If you dont have a tach and want one, its already prewired for it.

schardbody

ITS ONLY PREWIRED TO THE SHOCK TOWER HARNESS IF ITS A 92 YR MODEL, NO MATTER TRIM LEVEL, ETC......... thank you.

not exactly

ALL del sols, regardless of year were prewired. ALL 92 civics were prewired, after that, only civics that came with VTEC were pre-wired for it.

hell yeah, thats great news, means the future f20B/f20Chead swap im planning will be that much easier

EG2Driver

F20 heads wont bolt to a D block, you know that right?

dark_samurai73

i know, i meant f20b block f20c head

Ls_eg6

Someone also told me about a "tap" for the vtec soilenoid on the block between the #2 cylinder and #3 clylinder. Every Honda block I've seen has this. What exactly do you do with it, and will he need to do the same?

(Not trying to post-jack)

dark_samurai73

my block already has a vtec soilenoid so that wont be necessary, your probably thinking of an ls/vtec motor

HondaPartsHero

if you can get an EX/Si engine harness will make all the wiring plug and play. Or just wire up a subharness for VTEC pressure switch and VTEC solenoid. I think the above poster is referring to the oil jet that you have to remove when you do a mini me swap which isn't relevent to what you are doing.

dark_samurai73

im getting the harness for a Z6 so i should be fine, if not ill just get a del sol SI harness
