I picked up a gsr tranny with a broken vss, i bought another one from a 98 gsr but i'm using an obd1 wiring harness. will it work?

 

yes

 

okay i just tried it and it doesnt want to plug up.

 

shows as the same part number for both year cars.
make sure the plug pins aren't bent or damaged,and make sure there's no trash or anything in the new VSS sensor.

Ah I figured it out. You have to take the rubber and plastic peice out of it, for it to be able to plug into a single cam harness.

 

You can also use the VSS from hydro single cam tranny's also if you have one nstead of buying a new one. I had a friend who did a GSR swap and the sensor went bad so no V-TEC and he went bought a new one at honda for like $200 and some change when he could of used the one from the SOHC tranny.

 

I would have thought the gearing would have been different.

it's most likely the peices fromt he old sensor left in there.the VSSs are identical,and no mods are required.it's not uncommon for the white plastic piece that locks the pins in the plug to come loose,then when you swap in a new sensor or use a different harness,it gets in the way.
