I had a shop do most of the swap for me, converted automatic transmission to manual and installed an SR20DET. Since then, my speedometer hasn't been working... Should I be using an SR instrument cluster or is the KA cluster good enough? Hell, the one I have might even be an SR cluster... It does look like one and is possible the shop that did the majority of the swap may have switch that out too. However, the speedometer still isn't working... What should I check?

They probably didn't plug in the speed sensor. You don't need to run the JDM cluster as the SR and KA speed sensors are the same.

I checked through all the plugs coming off the transmission and not finding anything that isn't plugged in... Maybe some bad wiring?

Possibly some bad wiring. Nothing at all was hanging loose? Find the speed sensor from the transmission and trace it and see what it is connected too.
