How do you know that Vtec is not working? Try a different solenoid and pressure switch. Just to eliminate it from your list of things that could be bad.

hmm do you have enough oil in it,what about having a bad knock sensor. if you haev a knock it wont engage vtec and if you dont have the right oil levels you aint got enough pressure to lock those valves...
