The MB6 should be a DOHC VTEC B18C4 though, so the block already had VTEC. LSVTEC would refer to an Integra LS block, the B18B.


obviously its has to be b18b bottom block with b16a2 head for lsvtec

Obviously you didn't know what his motor was.

My post was there because LSVTEC is not a universal term. He seemed confused on what LSVTEC meant too. Also, not all LSVTEC motors have a B18B block. Nor does the head have to be a B16A2. So obviously you're wrong.

actually b18b is not the only block you can use to make a lsvtec so its not so obvious.. It looks like you are trying to pick a fight . dont ;)

ok two questions.

1 - in the pic of the rear. did you disconnect the inner taillights, the ones on the trunk/boot? or is that like a rear foglight setup sort of thing?

2 - in the pic of the front. did you dissconnect your turnsignals in the headlight housing, or again is that how it came over there.

if either one came like that, i am ssoooooooooo jealous

I know his rears are like that stock. Pretty sure the same for the fronts too. The rear lights have rear fogs in them. They're set up for a RHD car though.

well that was my original question. if it is not a rear foglight setup, why aren't the inner taillights in the trunk on? did he dissconnect them? or did it come from Honda UK like that?

I didn't say it didn't have rear foglights. Those taillights do have rear foglights, but they are not turned on right now. Maybe those inner lights only work as brake lights on Irish cars?

so the inner lights dont light up at all when you turn your headlights on OR step on the brakes? only the right one when your rear foglight is on? thats kid of odd... but hey, im from across the pond :lol:
