well i just bought my first 1989 240sx. it has a ka24de swap, but it has some problems. the engine seems like it isnt timed right (it shakes really bad at idle and the tach doesnt work. also the windshield wiper doesnt work and the headlights do work but only seems to go up and not come down. i think that the center steering cluster(the part where the signal switch and the windshield wiper switches are) is messed up. also the viper alarm system doesnt work..anyone know if these problems are related to each other? im figuring it is the switches but im not too sure, also some of the wires and fuses/relays look burnt out.
thanks.

also how would you directly wire the tach for a sohc tach instead of swapping it with a dohc tach.
