almost done with the swap. all i need to do is torque a couple bolts and hook up my exhaust and run a couple hoses and im finished!! so my question is, there is a nozzle coming out of the upper radiator hose connector on the block under the vtec solenoid and i dont know where it is supposed to run to. heres a pic...

the inlet on the tb facing the firewall is going to the iacv and from the iacv i have a hose going to here on the tube connecting the thermostat housing and the water pump

i am not sure if the hoses on the tb are right. i looked at my friends itr and used that as a guide.
 
yeah, i believe that's your coolant by pass inlet hose. there should be 2 nipples like that on the bottom of the tb, the one near the firewall goes in to the iacv and then from the iacv to the back of the engine, the other one should go to the nipple that you're referring to.
 
ok. the inlet facing the firewall has a hose going to the iacv. then from there, i have a hose running to the pipe attached to the water pump and the thermostat housing. the other inlet on the tb has a hose running to an inlet attached to the case where the thermostat is. that extra inlet is the only one that i can see still open. does it tee into something? or do i have the other hoses mixed up? i looked at my buddy's 00 itr for guidance, but his car doesnt have that original inlet.
 
take a better pic of the area, it should be a heater hose that goes to the firewall, but from the shitty pic that you have, it looks like the nipple is too small for a heater hose, take a better pic of the whole area and i'll edit it to be a diagram. btw, check your pm's, you want that stuff?
 
i sent you a couple pms over the weekend. the guy i bought the block from had these parts laying around and he gave them to me. so thanks anyway. i took the pic with my phone so it came out shitty. let me see if i can get a better pic.
 
i have some new pics but it says they are too large to post them. how do i re size them?
