Default Vtec Solinoid Plug?

ok so i finished my rhd b20 vtec and i bought a rhd harness froma gsr. now i cannot find the vtec plug for the solinoid. theres a plug that plugs in below it but im not sure if thats the plug for the vtec solinoid. question is does a b20 block have a special plug under the vtec solinoid which is the same plug. and is the vtec solidnoid plug green just like the male side of the plug?

If Im not mistaken, the jdm harness/vtec solenoid doesnt have the oil pressure sensor....thus you'll never find it.

Note the lack of the oil pressure sensor.

ok so then since i have all jdm harness in my car and everything it shouldnt even matter then. since there is a plug spot would it matter if there was no plug cause its all jdm harness. or would i need a jdm vtec solinoid?

BTW, its solenoid, not solinoid. Anyway, the harness makes no difference whether it needs to be hooked up or not....only the ECU. It only matters if the ECU is looking for a signal from the pressure sensor (which it does and if it doesnt get one, it will NOT engage vtec). Some/most of the JDM ECUs don't look for the pressure sensor and you'll have no problem. The US ECUs do though and that will be an issue if you dont have it hooked up. Almost all chips (uberdata, crome, hondata, etc) have a setting so that you can turn that feature off on the US ECUs. Thus, either get a JDM ECU or a chipped ECU w/ the pressure sensor turned off.

He is missing the green connector on the wiring harness, which tis the vtec pressure switch (ie, oil pressure switch).

Yeah, like 95 integra said, most JDM ECU's don't look for that oil pressure sensor since most JDM engines don't have the sensor. So you're good.
