i personally do not like the y8. due to oiling issues. but anyway... an obd2 vtec harness worked on an ls? ls is non vtec. but idk. might work. plug the engine harness into the main harness... dadada into ecu. it should drop right in. i may have misunderstood you on the harness thing tho... just get a y8 engine harness. should be cheap. did i answer your question?

 

yea the harness works it came with the car i think was custom made cuz it has like every plug on it it possibly can but like the knock sensor does it have to be wired in or plug and play and other sensors

 

since the harness is obd2... as is the y8. plug and play on the sensors. when you get it in and if you have wiring problems... just go get one off of a y8.

 

k im missing sensors on mine thats whats confusing me

 

one guy said he had to put a knock sensor on so the vtec would hit

 

weird.

 

whats missing?

 

one next to oil pressure and if theres anything that goes near that

 

eeeeeh. been a while since i looked at a block... um water temp sensor???? anybody?

 

i think it should be green idk forget havent work on a honda in a while

 

your talkin about the sensor being green? if so. yea. it should be. its some kindof temp sensor.

 

ok need that i guess y8 dont have knock sensor just have to see what happens thanks for the help

 

hold on a min...

 

the y8 knock sensor should be about 3 inches abouve the oil pressure sensor

 

need an obd2 pin sheet?

ground the one of the wires on the vtec presure switch to the frame of your car other wise the vtec wont pop

 

as far as wiring the knock sensor... just run a pin to the ecu...see the diagram for pin location... then get the connector that plugs into the knock sensor location (below the intake manifold on the back of the block) run the wire... DO NOT take my word for it unless someone else on here backs me up. do research about it.

 

ofc a harness with VTEC would work on a non-VTEC motor. Because you simply dont run a VTEC ECU and obviously you cant plug in VTEC. The harness doesn't matter, its just that some are pre-wired for VTEC while others are not.

 

He lied, I have a bad knock sensor and it throws a CEL but vtec works fine.

 

im going to the junkyard tomorrow prob wont find a y8

 

i dont see where it would go i looked for it but ill check it again tomorrow i know it should be near the water neck but i dont see a spot

 

im a tard... i knew that...

 

guess y8 doesnt have a knock sensor

 

YOUR y8 dosnt have a knock sensor? just checking.

 

ALL Y8s are SUPPOSED to have a knock sensor.
