d15b theres vtec and a non vtec. 3 kinds of usdm non vtec, and obd2 2stage vtec.obd1 is just like the z6 with a 3mm difference in piston clearence and has more aggressive cam.

d15b is the same as the usdm d16z6 it just has more agressive cams... so it has vtec


Yea it is but clearly in his pic the spark plugs are on the intake side of the valve cover soo.. that would make it non vtec. Not to mention there is a non vtec d15b found in 88-95 civics .

#173629 When you change the valve cover gasket be sure to put sealant silicone around the moon shape ends or problem will persist :thumb: .
