It's your vehicle speed sensor (VSS). I've had similar symptoms on my Prelude when the VSS went out on that. Should be cheap to fix, though. On my Prelude the sensor wasn't even broken, it just came loose.

your ECU needs to see a certain speed to activate VTEC. so check the VSS like the previous post said.

In case you can't find it, its on the tranny, right behind the clutch slave, below the O2 sensor plugs.
