everything they send you will work fine except the harness, your car should be prewired for VTEC, so just find a civic EX or Si harness and your set, or run the Vtec wires your self, you will also need to run a wire for Knock sensor(either way). running the wires your self is alot better than paying for a new harness IMO

the reason why you can't use the harness on that engine is because it's designed for the RHD cars where your car is a LHD car. just reuse your stock civic harness and add the correct wires: knock sensor, etc...

btw b16a2= usdm
b16a sir= jdm
b16a2 sir=?
