I am currently swapping an S13 SR20 into my 97 S14 240sx. I have purchased the Wiring Specialties pre-made S13 SR20 into an S14 240sx main harness, as well as the Wiring Specialties pre-made S13 SR20 into an S14 240sx lower/transmission harness.

From what I have read searching the internet; to keep cruise control working (electrically) you need to install the ASCD switch on the clutch pedal. This can be done by purchasing the switch and installing it into the pedal. Then installing a connector for the switch by hooking it in series with the brake pedal ASCD switch connector. Hooking it in series causes the normally closed connection to be broken by pressing the brake pedal or the clutch pedal.

My confusion is with the clutch interlock switch. In various threads I have read to jumper two wires by the fuse box in the engine bay. This jumpers the interlock and allows the car to be started without the clutch pedal pressed in. I would like to maintain the clutch interlock when doing this swap. Where would I wire the clutch interlock switch to? Would go with the neutral position sensor? Thanks

It sounds like you have a pretty good idea as to what all needs to be done for you application. I would download FSM for your 97 and look at the factory wiring for the clutch interlock and figure out what needs to be done from there. I don't think it has anything to do nuetral switch on the trans, but I'm sure one of the forums pro's will chime in if I'm wrong.

Mine is bypassed like most peoples, and from looking at it I would have to run the wires from the clutch pedal switch all the way to that connector near the fuse box. Since the connector from the harness isn't there anymore.

That is exactly what you do, run two wires from the the top connector on the engine bay fuse box to the clutch interlock switch on the pedal. This allows you to use the clutch interlock. Thanks
