I dont know about the trans differences between 89 to 94, but 95+ does have crankshaft position sensor that reads off of flywheel. But your not using 95+ harness and ecm so you shoul not worry about that.
As for the motor. Its a 95 ka24de and you want to use 93 wiring harness. Ok I have not done that personaly but from what i remember.
1 You have a 89 SOHC your tahc will not work with DOHC, got to junkyard and just buy tach from DOHC or just buy the entire gauge cluster.
2. Its a 95 so that means it does not have an external coil, that 95 disstributor is useless to you. You will need the 91-94DOHC disstributor, (coil, power transistor, and that lill square thing close by the coil forgot the name of it) these three things should be the same in the s13 sohc and dohc.
3. Dont know if MAF for sohc and dohc are the same, might be.
4. you did not mention anything about the ECM/ECU, but that would be something on top of the "to get list" if you dont have it yet. Auto or manual trans ECM should work dont see any problems, but manual trans ECM would be your best find.
5. I dont know if you know this but sohc and dohc have the power steering pump on opposite sides so you would need dohc power steering lines if your planing on running that
And yes trany and motor should work and the starter from sohc works on dohc, because I have a 95 KA24DE and I used my sohc starter to crank the motor on the stand.
Thats all I can think of right now, if you want to know anything else just ask.For now I got to go my dispacher called ma and said he has a load for me, so I might be back around 8pm , Wisconsin propably.
