Default motor swap problem

ok, im almost finished with my b16 swap. we need to plug in all the wires, but since it came from hmo(japan) its right hand drive and all the plugs are on the opposite side. heres the problem, the wiring harness plugs are connected to other wires that go on the side their on already, how do i get the wiring harness plugs to the other side w/o stretching too much, breaking or messing up other wires theyre connected too?

You can use a USDM harness. Otherwise, it's a lot of cutting and splicing.

use your old harness if you have it. but im not sure what you use to have so it may not work.

I agree with these guys, either buy a USDM harness or use the harness you have on your car.

Mod your original wiring harness, saves a lot of headaches.

Check the classified you can prob find one cheap in there or check on e-bay.


I helped a friend do a jdm gsr swap into a ls teg. We got a usdm gsr harness plugged it in and had to wire up a few things to make it work in the ls body.
