Anyone have a VTEC engagement light?
Ive seen these on GSRs and Preludes, but i havent seen them for the SOHC VTECS...Anyone have one on their 2.2, or 2.3 CL? And if you do, know how to hook one up? Thanks.

I know a couple people have done it over on h-a.net so you might want to go over there and do a search under the accord section. Dont stay there though, that place is so dead

after SHO crashed, Mike became a real asshole to everyone and alienated all the old skool SHO peeps, so Dezoris, a fellow SHO'er made Hondavision in January and now all the OGs of SHO are on it, and the forums are so diverse, its great....just the cool peeps from SHO

Another cool thing about this site is that it's almost always work safe...cuz it sucks when ur surfing and someone has a half naked chick in their sig and then co workers or boss that pass by may think your looking up porn at work.

friend just built a turbo lsvtec.. runs a solid 10.. so "not worth it" is horse shit.. .. and if you rip the entire block and head apart to drill new coolant and oil feeds, why not replace everything else.. i wouldn't rip all that shit down, send it to the machinist.. and tell him to keep my crap ass pistons and valvetrain

um actually for the hp u get out of a Revhard Stage 3......versus an extra ooh 30 hp, or the B18c5 with an extra 50 hp....its not worth it....trust me..i would rather boost my b18b than put a damn VTEC head and modify it and risk problems, because the LS/VTEC is unreliable..if u want i have articles over it.....
**Plus im interested to know how u have 2 different motors in your Civic, since the SiR motor is a B16a, and u say u have an H22a, and is yours left hand drive, cuz last time i checked a Ferio was a Civic in Japan...

H22a - Prelude DOHC motor
B16a - DOHC motor( came in the old Civics:JDM SiR, new Civic Si, del Sol DOHC VTEC)
Ferio - JDM Civic
I just wanna know how you can have a USDM Civic, and call it a FERIO, and then also claim its an SiR, when it has an H22a in it..
I mean sure i can slap a Type S on my CL and call it a Type-S.....i guessssssssss.

1. ls/vtech is more than worth it you just can't really use the car as a daily driver.
2. f0de has a ferio and the h22a post the pics f0de and shut this little n00b up.
3. Don't come on the board and think your the shit and call people out if thats your style you will never never get respect.
4. we all use this board to help one another not start fights.
f0de shut him up once and for all or 98 just apologize for making asumptions without the facts and let it be over and done with.

can we ALL get back to the point here....and someone tell us how to install a vtec light.....i think it would be a hoot too.......i know when my vtec kicks in, just thinking the light would be fun........heres another example no one puts down.......for those with stick, they (((usually))) know when to change gears, but still go out and buy the big tach's with shift lights just so the llight can tell em to shift.......i understand for racing purposes...but we all know not everyone that has a big tach races.....am i right?....so if you guys wanna fight over f0de's siero, post a new thread, but if anyone has info on how to install a vtec engagement light.....i'd be interested, and appreciate it if you would POST UP!......thanks!

..obviously i did a motor swap on a sir, its Right hand drive, and it was imported from japan.. the b16 was sold with a stock lsd for 2500 bucks.. to put an h22a in it with over 10 grand into it.. wtf made you think i had 2 motors in it.. and secondly.. speed dosn't last.. so if you want to go fast.. don't plan to do it with one engine, and one turbo, and one set of axles.. i have 2 of everything for this car.. and ls/vtec not worth it? thats why ppl run 7's with them.. screw all your articles.. make a honda run 7's as a daily driver without blowing a few motors up.. won't happen. and if you actually knew half of what your talking about.. you'd know that if you did an ls/vtec right, it'll last you a lot longer then your average ls/vtec motor.. instead of just slapping a head on a motor and bolting it down.. theres oil problems that you need to address and coolant issues as well, if your in the area of new jersey, come down to visit me then talk shit when your ass is handed to you by a "bluff" of a car, and then handed to you by an ls/vtec.. seriously, get over 30 posts before trying to insult someone

and all this ONLINE RESPECT SHIT??? hahahaha get a life geek, there is life outside the internet, in case you were wondering..
and your 4th point, i wasnt trying to start a "fight" i was simply implying that you cannot have an H22a in a JDM Ferio, but also have an SiR.......if u got the fucking H22a in your damn Ferio.....call it a damn JDM Ferio with an H22a, dont try to act all technical cause you THINK you know what the fuck youre talking about...

..you assume a bit too much, i'm on this site for the same reason everyone else is.. to help out and get help.. and where did i say all motor? no wheres.. yah, no wheres.. read the post then comment.. and if your saying helping ppl out because i know a car allready, is wrong.. fuck yourself.. i'm done arguing with you over stupid shit.. i can't stand watching you.. so one last thing.. its a ferio SIR.. thats what kind of car it is.. despite what motor is in it.. if honda wanted to name cars after what motor they had it would be a ferio b16...

I saw your comment on me, saying....and i quote.."If you dont know when VTEC kicks in, then you shouldnt have a Honda." am i right? now that to me sounds like sarcasm....now i know i KNOW my shit.....and people trying to call you out on something you DEFINATELY know, is not a cool thing.....now i apologize if i sounded to harsh, im sorry.....u have a nice Civic...in your sig though, it is a little confusing as to what you have....
