I'm a little confused with the lower two plugs that you have to cut and rewire with the KA plugs. (See pic 1)

The confusion is that the KA plugs seem to have many more colours of the rainbow (See pic 2), and the CA's are not so colourfull...(See pic 3).

I am using frsport.com's wiring info and they say to basically simply match the colours up. I have many more colours than they say.

Now my main question here is: Do I only wire up what is said on frsport.com and leave all the rest un connected, or am I a freak with this harness?

The other question I have is with the knock sensor.

It seems that the wiring for the knock sensor is in my lower CA harness (See pic 4). Do I still have to cut and re-wire that to the white wire or is it already done through the lower harness to body harness connection?

Any help is very, very appreciated.

Thanks,-Nick

Leave the wires not mentioned disconnected. You will only have a couple on each connector.

The laziest way to wire the knock sensor is to run a wire directly to the ecu.
