Just wanted to know if the wiring was the same on the sr20 then the ka, and if it was different, was it a pain to intall. search around the wiring is very easy, use both lower and upper SR wire harnesses, only a few wires need extensions and a few need to be rewired at the ECU. search !! there’s a write up on [srswap.com](http://srswap.com) [http://srownersclub.com/faq/index.asp](http://srownersclub.com/faq/index.asp) ---

Nice SR install btw, however you should have went with the KAT… looks like you had a solid platform ---

You either need to run a smaller battery, either aftermarket or Miata battery fits, or you’ll have to relocate the battery, unless you decide to route your IC piping around the battery, or go with the sidemount. ---

Thanks for the comments guys apericate it, ill be at bings meet yes and i chose SR over a KAT for alot of reasons…just seemed like a better idea for what i want. as for how i got the bay clean,well oven cleaner and de greaser and a brush…and a few hours of scrubbing i was going to paint the bay but once i cleaned it up i decided i liked the way it was and left it. anyway glad im in the club now haha 🙂 ---
