go to rywire.com and they will have what you need so that it is plug and play so that your wiring is clean, and not a hack job.

never mind about the rywire.com.. im not looking to buy anything i just need to know where those 2 wires go.... this isnt something that should be too hard..... i just need to know where the wires go to.. if anyone who has a B series could look under their hood and just say "hey the green wire goes _______ and the black wire goes___________" that'd help alot.


you see the story of this situation is this, i got the shell.. a rolling chassis nothing more.. i orderd the B16a from Hmotors now theres the 6 plugs that go into the car..... ok i figured that out now the last thing here is the vtec wires, they were cut so i need to know where to wire them to... directly to the ecu? does it need to go to another plug? where do they go?

I never really heard of anyone using the JDM harness you might be better off buying a 92-95 si/ex harness

with the ex/si harness all you would need to wire is the KS which is d3 at the ecu. the rest would just plug in
