Yeah, the D series are the same dimensionally. I notice you didn't
list the computer (ecu) though; you will definitely need the VTEC
computer to run the VTEC engine. You're right, you do have to run an
extra wire between the engine and the computer to work the VTEC
solenoid; like the guy said, it's documented all over the place.
