u need half s13 short shaft and half s12 long shaft. bolts up

refer to sterlings thread about relays to get the fuel pump to work, or hard wire it to a switch


you can swap the cable transmitter from the s12 trans to the eltronic 240 trans, for speedo, and if you follow sterlings stuff everything SHOULD work... haha i should. because i ahve no tach

I never hooked it up to the ecu innocent.gif

I just grounded the white wire up directly below the green/black (power from efi relay) wire. And didn't bother with a relay. Fuel pump just runs at all times that the run is on.
ALSO, My starter did not want to crank at first, until I found that it's not addressed in the wiring guide. It's a yellow blacl wire on the passenger side harness, and a yellow black wire on the KA harness. connect those and BOOM! crank action!

This thread answered all the rest for me

After checking the wiring, no joke, 12 times. I cranked her and she started in 3 cranks. Nearly instantaneosly. All in all, This swap was MUCH easier than I was making it in my mind.

As for the dash, The coolant temp sensor is the same between all of the engines. So that as fine, And the CA20 Oil pressure sending unit goes into the KA block just fine. just wire that up. Voltometer works fine as is, as does the fuel guage. The Tach is an issue with our cars and the KAde's, because they have a 5 volt system, instead of 12 (on some), so mine doesnt work until I figure that one out later. and the Speedo? Just use the gear from your B trans in it. They have the same gear between the two and will have no issues.

where is the yellow black wire on the harnes? is it on the starter itself and the s12 sid the one that is before the transmission harness ?

Is your car automatic or manual trans to begin with? David's answer is assuming you're starting out with a manual trans car.

Also, if you have a '95+ KA24DE, you won't have a normal coil.. the coil will be integrated into the distributor, and you will have to tap off of one of the three wires on the distributor connector (not sure which one).

i figured it out finally

with the KA swap, can you use the CA box? all the KA24's here were front wheel drive to my knowledge. Considering a swap, but need info on gearbox. cheers

you need a ka24 bellhousing to use the s12 b or c trans

+1 i assume all cars are manual. i hate automatic failness!
