The Accord's version of VTEC is set up to be more smooth transitions, not silly kick-in-the-pants abrupt transitions. And it's also set up more for improving MPG rather than a big horsepower kick.
In fact, I bet a lot of the ricers driving Integras think they're feeling VTEC "kick-in". When in reality what's really happening at 5800rpm is the 2ndary runners of the intake manifold are opening up.

I don't think the rev-limiter is at 5800, I thought the redline is higher than that. But I'm really not sure, cause I never owned a 1995. Where's the redline on the tachometer? The stuff that happens at 5800 on a DOHC VTEC engine has very little to do with your car.
The thread has kinda wandered around with questions about "is this really a vtec engine" or "vtec engages at 5800" etc.
Have you checked for error codes like HondaDude suggested?

Fuel & oil filters wouldn't cause a sharp cut like a rev-limiter. Fuel filter would probably cause loss of power, sputtering, uneven-ness at high load.
Not to discourage you from doing normal maintenance when it's required, but I don't think those would cause the problem.
