the intercooler was a tight fit, and i just recieved my koyo radiator today and it gave me a chance to route my intercooler piping a better way, dont really wanna go do some pulls until i get my walbro ill update later

i had a buddy do the wiring, but the way he explained it its not that bad at all, but as far as i understand your just hooking the rb harness to the ka lower harness and getting power to the ecu which in my case was the 3 plugs by the battery tray

alright well my radiator and fuel pump just recently came in, so i took care of those, and while the radiator and ic piping was out it gave me a chance to better position my ic piping, other than all that i just have to sort out a few other things then my cars done....for the moment =D

Very sexy. I have read the rb20 swap wiring diagram prob 100 times, doesn't look bad. My harness is already converted, but too much knowledge can never hurt.

KA lower is used, rb20 engine harness is used - it's like 4 wires to make the car run then 8 more for the dash

Where is your purple/white wire tapped into?

ok, thanks. The guy told me to tap into a white wire with a red stripe, but I could just run it to the battery and put a fusible link in the middle

looks good, but all i see is the damn intercooler piping. does someone make an intake manifold for the rb20 so it doesn't require such a long cold pipe?
