Get a new harness then, it's very simple. I just don't recommend getting an sr, then tend to have problems, unless you get lucky

Reliability, simplicity and a good flowing head goes to the SR
Being able to find Short blocks and heads here in the states with ease goes to the KA-T
I've been Sr for 5 years. No major problems, but if you have a friend Powder-coat your valve cover and he doesn't tell you he sand blasted it even though you him told NOT TO!!! That will blow up any motor.
I love my SR the only other motor I would swap in my 240sx is a LS series or a coyote motor, hell even a 96-98 cobra motor would be pretty fun in our light weight cars.

I feel it I'm still leaning towards rs swap but if I can get my hands on the chase bay's harness and turbo kit with in the next few weeks I'm staying ka plus I have no one to help me do the swap I think It would be easier to turbo it an just have someone tune it.
Does anyone know someone running this kit by any chance

Most SR's that have problems are due to improper rebuilds or the the fact that no rebuild was done at all.

Taking a 20yr old redtop, dropping it in then beating the crap out of it. It will have issues.
