Default All are OB2->OBD1 harnesses made equal ?

Ok, I am curious. Since, I have a 2K GSR and really want to go back to OBD1, I have been searching for conversion harnesses.

Different people sell these namely:

skunk2, hondaata( new zealand pronunciation), jk, folks on ebay, groupbuycenter etc. They are all priced differently, of course some more than others

So, I am asking if people have had issues with one brand over another or which one the majority have used and recommend.

Also, I am looking for a harness that will plug and play. I do not want to wire in resistors etc etc to make it work or do these things have to be soldered in?

Thanks a ton!

I will say no. They are not all made equal. Some harnesses are built with used OEM pieces. Now sometimes this is not a bad thing. My friend Kenji builds his harnesses using used OEM wires, but he verifies his harnesses and has been doing so for along time. But there are those other builders who use used wires and do not clean them, have dirty plugs and pins, etc.

My harnesses on the other hand are only constructed from all brand new OEM pieces. Every single wire, pin, plug, etc is brand new and is carefully constructed to ensure that everything is correct. I offer a full warranty on all of my harnesses, even though customers never use it. My harnesses are plug and play systems. No soldering, no splicing, etc. More pics and applications can be seen on my website.

I have heard nothing but good things about kenji's harness as well. Although me personally i think paying 100+ for a bunch of wires is too much. don't get me wrong they are quality product and involved alot of time in making these.

I myself just bought a kit ($35), and going to make it myself just because i'm good with electrical work, and its all part of the "fun" of working on your car.
