Default H23 external coil wire harness/JDM H22 internal coil - Please Help

I am on the tail end of a swap into my 93 lude. Please let me know how to modify an external coil H23 wire harness to work with a JDM H22 internal ignition coil/dizzy.

You can use the H23 dizzy and coil on the h22 swap. Its easier.

I also recommend using the h23 distributor, do not play with the wiring if you don't have to.

"better"? nah..

If anything, the usdm setup is better because the coil isn't located inside the cap, and service is easier.

I'm wondering the same thing...what is the exact plug mod to use the h22 internal coil distributor on the h23a harness?

I understand one's easier than the other. I want to use my h22 distributor because I don't want to deal with getting a longer plug and coil wire for my external coil, and then try to find a place to mount it. I'd much rather have internal coil.

What if your H23 dizzy has 200K+ miles and seems to be causing slight hesitation in the low rpms? Would it be worth it to use the "new" internal coil jdm dizzy that came with my motor?
