Yes, I've searched quite a bit.

I have a KA & 5spd in the car bolted up & the clutch mechanisms working now, but I'm realizing that the S14 wiring info I've been looking at (http://www.cautioncreativity.c....htm, http://www.240sx.org/links/ins...p.htm) is not the same as my S13. Does anyone have better info regarding the following:

1. Neutral safety switch - plug color/location/jumpering2. ECU - location of wires/colors for ASCD/4th/5th/neutral switches.3. Reverse lights - plug/location/colors

I've tried looking in my FSM quite a bit, but I have to admit I'm no electrical engineer, and the diagrams aren't the easiest to trace. Plus, I hate to re-create the wheel when I know a billion people have done this.Thanks for any help you can offer, I know this topic in general (auto->manual swap) has been beaten to death, but this particular issue does not seem well documented (hopefully it is, and someone will just post a link );)

I have done the swap on my 92. I stuck with the auto ecu and didn't change it. I bypassed the neutral saftey switch my wiring 2 wires together by the fuse box under the hood. Then I didn't want to mess with reverse light because I don't care if I don't have them. I live in Indiana. Here are some pics where to bypass the neutral saftey switch. http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4289753059 . Nick

So in this photo: http://www.imagestation.com/pi...g.jpg , it looks like this connector is under the fusebox, and not with the group of three connectors next the fusebox. Is this correct?

Does anybody have info on reverse lights at the least? Cruise would be nice at some point, but I need to make sure I can pass inspection later this year, etc.

Thanks!

I still have cruise control. You can wire a switch for reverse lights for the time being. Nick
