The latest Honda car to use hydraulic lifters was the 2.5-2.7L Legend V6, and the 3.2-3.5L Legend/RL V6.

Most cars with hydraulic lifters don't ever require a valve adjustment.

Neither

But it's considered "solid".

Not always. a 2.5L-2.7L Legend V6 is a SOHC V6 with pushrods and hydraulic lifters.

So, since it is a DOHC VTEC design it has no lifters?

Well, the cams lobes push directly on levers that press down on the valve stems through the adjuster. So, yes no lifters.
