Ok i just got my swap in and cranked it up to my surprise everything on the motor end was fine. However, I can't go into 3,4,5 or reverse and when in neutral and the clutch out the wheels start moving. When in neutral and clutch in the wheels don't move. Also when i but it into first the car dies on me. I have a ka24de clutch in it maybe that could be the reason?

Sounds like a broken selector fork. Take the transmission back out and get it repaired or replace it.

after thinking about it i don't believe there is a connector for my neutral position sensor on my lower harness, could that be the issue and if so what are the wire colors on the lower harness
