Hey guys, just registered here but I've been reading posts for a while trying to learn as much as posible.
I was hesitant about asking this here since my car is not a 'VR4' but instead a ff version of the body shell /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
Story is like this,
My car, Auto 4g63 SOHC
Motor sitting in my garage, 4g63 DOHC manual trans. I also have the computer for this motor.
Wreakers just told me $80 for the engine bay harness.
Questions..
When I change my motor/trans and put in the new harness, does the engine harness plug into the computer and the dash harness? or is it one big piece? my gauge cluster is for an auto, will I have trouble connecting the manual harness into the auto dash harness?
Basically is it as simple as ripping the SOHC harness out of the engine bay, replacing it with the DOHC harness and posting it through under the dash and plugging it into the new computer and the original dash harness? or am I in for a nightmare I won't forget?
The car is basically my daily driver so I don't want it down for much time.
I tried looking up under the dash to see if the engine bay and dash harness are one piece, I also took a look at my manuals but still can't quite make out.
Hope this is all clear.
Many thanks
Justin
