Wow this is a great video its gonna save me $200 for a dakota universe speed convertor which some videos said i should use. I put in a 04 transmission in my 06 rsx-s thanks! Cant praise you enough for doing vtec gods work. Thank you thank you thank you 🙏
@@401kid6 “why didn’t you ask us last year” -vtec academy This was his response to someone else’s comment, I noticed you asked this question 6 months ago with no response.. I’d imagine that’s why…
Wish I saw this last year lol, I had to do this in reverse. I had to repin my type s harness and change connector to use css then change the setting in kpro. Using a cl7 euro r 6spd, 02-04 type s harness and kpro4.
Good info yet again. Keep crankin em out. Offtopic: If someone has a v6 6mt j-series layin around, what are the best double-wishbone chassis for a swap?
Definite best double wishbone chassis is the dc4/dc2/db7 integra by far, second best would be 2nd/3rd gen prelude,third best would be civic del sol, fourth best I'd say is eg/ek civic. 5th mazda 5/ford fusion, For rwd: e90 bmw 3 series, infinti g35/g37, mazda rx-8,
@@youngb1ood I'm mainly worried about not reducing ground clearance without needing a 1980s redneck dragster-esque hood. Was thinkin DA/DC, CRV, or even an EF sedan if I could squeeze it.
If you feel like you maybe should test, absolutely test. It takes a bit longer but grants a measure of sanity when troubleshooting later. I bought a swapped civic half price because they had the injector wires swapped and couldn't get it running right. Took me longer than I care to admit to figure it out but still runs fine to this day!
Is this why Hondata can't read my speed? I have a 2006 Civic SI transmission and a 2004 ECM in my CRX K24. I installed a Rywire harness. At the sensor, I get 12v and a good ground. The signal wire is solid also.
Thanks Grandpa VTEC for saving me. I have a PRB-A15 ktuner. Do I run the blue to my ecu and then use the b17 speed out for my dash? Cluster is a JDM Civic Si Eg cluster with no I’m and out. Just an in.
None of the EG/EK or DC2 gauge clusters have an out, they are all input only. The blue wire from the CSS or VSS should connect to pin 18 in the A plug. The VSS out is pin 25 on the E plug and should give you the corrected signal if you're setting are correct. We used the Accord ECU, so I haven't tried the 05 ECU to see if I can get that to work. My guess is it should.
I'm interested in buying an Wlemt with JDM tax k24a swap Swapped in it but has this issue Only issue car has at the moment is the speed sensor is not reading proper voltage because it is wire to a 5v and needs to be wired to a 12v car still runs and drivers is this easy to do I also therea a converter I can buy for it
Hello I have to connect at the front. I’m not sure about the harness, but everything else seems to be out of an 2005 RSx I have black, black and yellow and white and green,gray conector i need blk conector believe it’s a D6 transmission. What do I need to do? Thank you very much.
Hi sir I use frv tranny for k kswap but my engine finish wiring using paa ecu but no speedo and vtec any idea to work vtec and speedo using stock ecu ppa ecu
I've fitted NSN4 6 Speed transmission for a 2005 rsx type s on my k20a2 swapped eg civic, was previously 5 speed transmission from a Ep3 civic.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks
would this same process work with an 05 rsx auto engine harness what it looks like it has two css and what i got done to it is an 02 type s trans in it, k tuner and a k24a in it and i just figured out my vtec hasnt been working cuz no speed sensor
How would you go about changing vss to css? Using a rsx 02-04 harness. Where would you get the 5 volts from and what’s the pin out like? Obviously this Rsx plug is setup for 12v
@@MrEGThug I want to find this out too. I’m wondering if we just have to do it in reverse order what he did. Considering he just tapped into another wire with the same 12 volt color.
@VTEC Academy I've got an Integra I'm putting a K20Z3 with RSX BASE 5 speed transmission into (have 02 Type S wire harness), my question is since the base trannie doesn't have 6 gear, there is no lockout mechanism? Do I just ignore the lockout plug?
How can I make the vss work on a 2013 si stock transmission case with mf factory 1-4 gears? Can I by pass without swapping cases or taping for a speed sensor and adding ring gear ?

Would this work the same for my 06 Rsx type s? The only thing different is that I have the CRV awd trans (VSS). My concern is if what you showed on the video will allow the Rsx speedometer to work?
I have an 06 type s with an 04 type s transmission. I need to do the css to vss like the video. My only concern is if I need Kpro or a tune in order for it work again. Will it turn off my CEL code for speed sensor? Will I be able to hit vtec again? Will it work normally? Will it mark the speed the same? I’m just worried if I do all the wiring and it doesn’t work if I’ll need kpro in order for it to work again
@@MrEGThug I did find out a solution. You will need kpro or ktuner or some sort of end user kit, do the wiring he did here and all of it correctly also some sort of speed converter. Like a Dakota digital or you can get the ktuned one as well and do the wiring for that one into your wiring harness or ECU. I was worried I wasn’t going to get it right because he isn’t very specific about which yellow black wire to connect to in the video. I ended up just tapping it onto any yellow black wire and I haven’t had any issues with anything and it did turn off my check engine light for speed sensor but still didn’t mark speed. I still couldn’t hit vtec either. That’s where the tuner comes into play. Once you set up the tuner there will be options for a speed calibration. I use ktuner so mine had the option there for 02-04 transmission. You just have to figure out the numbers on there to make it work correctly. Also fixed my vtec issue. I do have CAI/H/E so I did reflash 2 on ktuner. If you have any questions, message me and I’ll help you out!
