As far as I know...

As long as you aren't HUD.You don't need to do anything with the dash harness.You just need a DOHC cluster which should plug right into existing wiring (no splicing or anything required).And you need to use the KA 5-speed Speed Sensor and put that in the SR transmission for your speedo to remain correct.

^ Make sure that the KA 5-Spd sensor is from a 91-94 DOHC.

im using a speed sensor from my sohc 1990 it works. my tach doens't work though cause it's still the sohc

[driftiteasy0113]

so would i just need the tach sensor from a dohc then and still use the sohc dash plug?

so are you still using the sohc dash plug? or did you splice the dohc?

I am fairly certain that SOHC speed sensors also work. As long as it came from a manual.

And Driftiteasy- You don't need a "tach sensor". As long as you have the DOHC cluster it will work just fine. Justin was referring to his tach not working because he is still using a SOHC cluster.

ok thank you friends. i am doing this tonight so i will let you know how it goes

[Wretched]

I never messed with speed sensor...always used the one from the sr. Check out frsport.com about what to do with the dash plug.

Cool. if it works, use it.. Never tried one.
