so here are some pictures of spots im stuck on trying to wire in the 18det into my s12:

this is where most of the s12 to s13 splicing is taking place

on the opposite side, battery side, 3 thick black and yellow wires, are they all ground?

and right next to these wires are some connectors, one coming from the lower harness where the starter and alt are. and the other two are from the main harness. Do i just connect them....?

Not too many S12 conversions, but they're out there. You'd prob be better off posting this up in the CA18 forum instead of in here, since this isn't a 240sx.

^^ alright thanks. I dont think the lower harness is the s12 harness because the plugs near the battery dont match up so im guessing its a matter of splicing the lower harness to the main harness? just a guess though im so lost.....
