Yes, the 92 Civic's are pre-wired from the shock tower to the ECU for VTEC. There is two wires leading to A4 and D6 pinouts at the ECU.

What harness did you use for the engine? GSR or the Civic?

Three wires.

1 wire being Knock sensor to the D3 pinout
1 wire going from the IAB solenoid plug to the A17 pinout
1 wire going from the IAB solenoid to A25 or the Yel/Blk junction harness on the driver side shock tower harness.

That's right. Check the code by jumping the 2 pin connector. Get the code and tell us what it is. We will help you from there.
