I agree, a 98 to 02 milly engine bay harness, and perhaps a 96' GS dash harness and trimmings. possible future swap.. with all the work though it would be easier to go stand alone.

Apparently it's been done a few times on PT. Never looked more into it.

Josh, I had a 96 with a ZE and the ECU compensated for the different injector size no problem. I just had to use a KL02 VAF to smoothin out the engine. I was getting up to 20% fuel trim. (180cc vs 220cc injectors = 20% difference in size.)

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
