Good work. But the ones on other hondas look and are placed differently.

To OP. Easy way to find out is to start your car. And while its warming up feel the hoses around the manifold in the area you think the IACV is located. Youll soon feel that a hose or a pair of hoses will be warmer. That is your coolant supply for your IAVC. Whatever those pipes are connected to on the manifold, its most probably your IACV.

ahh, given that he drives an S2000 i assumed pics for the F20C would suffice, but that's useful info :thumbsup:

Sall good bro. Its just the f20c is not like 90% of all hondas. Its Rear wheel drive. Meaning the manifold is facing a very odd position for us front wheel drive junkies.
And by that picture, if that was on a front wheel drive, itd be located on the bottom of the manifold (thinking of a K series). So yeh. Its all different.
Either feel the coolant lines. Or look in the throttle body and see the hole in the throttle body (if it has one). Wherever that hole is, it will guide you to find the IACV or any form of idle control.
