I just got threw with a 5 speed swap and i need more detailed wiring info, I looked at someones post about the swap, but the wiring details are not very descriptive, I got the car started from the post wiring diagram but cant figure out how to make my reverse lights or my speedometer to work.

If anyone has done the swap before and knows how to explain the wiring in more detail to me that would be great.

I recenly helped a friend with his and I wired it.

His clutch pedal come with the switch on it so we wired the Nuetral safety switch to the cluth rather then the under the hood jumper wire.

He used a S13 trans so no crank angle sensor needed.

Now for reverse lamps its a power and return wire from the lower harness. When you go into reverse it closes the switch and sends power to the lamps. I used the FSM to identify the reverse lamp wires for the auto, then connected them to the manuals lamp switch.

Same thing for the VSS. Just identify the old and new and wire them up. The FSM was all that was needed.
