if its JDM, it is easier to get a USDM (LHD) harness and change it out, but it can be done with the RHD one, trust me. but it takes a bit of figuring and stretching.

what year is your car, and what year is the motor? also, i put a new water pump and T-belt, along with an exedy stage 1 clutch and a lightened flywheel on mine while it was sitting on the shop floor. i highly recommend that. it will save A LOT of work down the road.

nice, though the GSR LSD is a 2-way. i like the 1.5 for auto-x. but any LSD is better than none. oh, and i think those are JDM, so you may have to stretch those wires a little. theyll fit, you just have to get all of the slack you can.
