dude you're gonna get flamed,

you swap the speed sensor if you wanna actually know how fast you're goin on the road. but other then that you don't need to change anything from the wiring on the sr transmission

You can use either one. But as battle mentions, you will need to swap the sr speed sensor out for the KA speed sensor. Unless of course your JDM tyte like me and use the sr speed sensor and have a resistor on your KMPH cluster to work. Hehehe. Any other questions feel free to ask here or in the thread for noobs.

He said you only need the resisitor if you are keeping your SR speed sensor. Mine came without one to begin with and I had to buy one from the Nissan dealer. They sold me a KA sensor and said it will work. Your sensor needs to match your instrument cluster. If the cluster is KA, get the KA sensor.

the speed sensor swap is not necessary as the actual speedo gauge is what calibrates the speed. take a look at both SR and KA sensors, and you will see they have the same amount of teeth. speedo calibration is done on the blue potentiometer behind the speedo gauge.

Yes Im only mentioning the KMPH speed sensor and gauge because I switched mine from MPH to KMPH. You should be fine with your KA speed sensor and gauge.

the SR speedo is exactly the same as the KA sensor. same signal voltage and everything.
