Default Wiring harness question

i'm putting a 97 jdm itr motor into my ek and i'm pretty intimidated y the wiring so would i be better off:

A: using my stock wiring harness and adding wires (not sure how to add them but i guess i could figure it out)\

B: getting a usdm itr harness

C: lengthening wires on the jdm harness

thanks in advance guys.

-Sean

Cheapest thing to do is use your EK harness and mod it for the Vtec to work.

Next option is to get an 96-98 EX harenss since all the Vtec wires are already there. (assuming you don't have an EX).

You can't use a two piece Integra harness. It won't work.

Have fun

Yep...what you need just take off the harness you get with the engine.

I said I was going to do this for every swap I've done too. I always end up with shitty pictures from my digicam and a bunch of chicken scratch wiring notes on sticky tabs - not really enough to make an informative tutorial out of.
