you need an 88-91 si harness.
the jdm harness will work in a jdm crx OR it will work in a car that has been completely converted to right hand drive jdmness.

there is no such thing as an 88-91 si harness. there is 88 si and 89-91 si. OP you need a harness that matches your body harness. in your case you need an 89-91 si harness. once you have that you can do the proper vtec mods/additions and wiring to ecu (obd0, obd1 or obd2 what ever you choose).

if you need one lmk i can make you one to match your set up.

ive found that the 88 and the 89 are specific to the years and the 90-91 are interchangeable but as a rule of thumb always use the engine harness that goes to the car and just modify it to work with the engine ie splice and put the connectors on it. best way to do it imo.

Wrong. Only 88 is different, 89-91 are exactly the same engine harness. Body harnesses are different.

I've built many stock replacement and swap harnesses. And they are only 88 and 89-91 specific
