Got a jdm engine everything looks good besides the harness is cut.. now i have another harness so ill just use that one but how do i take off the jdm cut harness..?

 

Um, just unplug what's left of the J-spec harness from the engine (you'll need to remove the upper intake manifold) and then plug in your North American harness.

Cut harnesses are very common on j-specs. Remember these are junk yard engines and the workers in the yard are concerned with removing the engine as quickly as possible. So they use bolt cutters on the harness.

 

Kk other than removing the upper intake manifold its easy to take off?

 

Yes. You'll see what all needs to be removed. It's pretty self explanatory.

 

You haven't said if you are doing this swap or not. If you are uncertain on figuring out removing the harness you may want to enlist some aid in swapping the engine. I'm not saying this to be dick, I want you to have a good experience as an owner.

Also, where did you buy the engine from? Do you have proof of compression? Did you open the engine up before putting it in?

 

Ya i got a friend helping me i got it from japan2la 100psi on both housings

 

Good job. You got it from perhaps the most reputable seller for that type of thing at least. Good luck with the swap and let us know how it turns out!
