Are you swapping to 5spd at the same time you're installing your SR?

you mean the harness for the alt and sp sensor etc?
Use the usdm one as long as the alt plug is the same.

Plugs are all the same but the SOHC lower harness is slightly different due to the length of wiring. Use what you have and just modify as needed. The VSS is not required to rewire, the reverse lights are done just as any swap guide tells you (or on here, I just answered it again a few days ago) and the alternator wiring can be shortened as needed.

ok so the SR and KA wires are all the same just different plugs? so you think i should cut the ends off the KA plugs and attach it to the SR wires?
