Im still on my project 83 turbo swap to my N/A 83 5spd do I really need to swap the whole entire turbo harness of the car or just the motor harness conectin the ECU+ fusable links?
If anyone has any suggestions to make this work let me know. Thanks.

should just be the EFI and ignition harness you have to swap.

You really only need the efi harness. I swapped the entire car harnesses because I wanted everything to run like stock, then modify from there... and I wanted the boost & oil temp gauges.

Hey thanks for the info so how about the dash cluster? the N/A 5spd is digital and the turbo auto is a needl one, I like to swap to the needl But I downt know if i need the turbo harnees or can i use the N/A?

There's QUITE a few threads about that swap. Long answer short... yes, you need the analog dash wiring.

Is the engine in great shape? If so how much do you want for it? I am looking for an '83 n/a motor, that runs like a top. So I can put it in my '83 280zx. Let me know man, that would be sweet.
