why would you get a complete new wiring harness? i believe it should work with the one you have in there all you should need is a new ECU

your best shot for the wiring harness would probably be online or at a junkyard

Well, first off your car is a 93, which is obd1. So you have the wrong ECU in there to begin with. I would try getting just an obd1 ECU and if your still having problems then look into the wiring harness but im almost positive it should be fine once you get an obd1 ECU in there

if i were you, id do what im doing, and just buy a brand new one off ebay, when you buy it you tell them your engine setup and they tune it for you before they send it to you

If it reads p28-a01 its manual, it it reads p28-a51 its auto, there are lots of threads out there on how to tell if an ecu is manual or auto.
