i have a gen3 on my 93 and everything was plug and play. when i swapped it again into another gen3 which just got totaled everything worked pnp as well

i am now buying a 91 n/a will everything be pnp or are there any connectors that are diff on the kick panel. How do i go about converting to a 93+ speedo

thanks

I am almost done with a 91 NA -> Gen3 swap. As long as you have the Gen3 wiring intact things are pretty plug and play. I had to solder only one wire at the kickpanel.

You can use the cluster from the 91 NA, you just need to get a mechanical speed sensor from a 91 - 92 Turbo tranny.

I don't know anything specifically, but I'm sure someone on here does, until then all I can lend you is a hearty bump.

I have heard as long as you have a complete clip it's a fairly straightforward process. Since my swap was a 93' NA - Gen 3 I didn't have to worry about the speed sensor then, but you have a cluster, so now I'm just repeating things.
