While the Hybrid Racing Conversion Wiring Harness is 99% plug-n-play, there are a few wires that need
to be connected after the harness has been installed into the car. Because it involves electricity, there is
always the risk of damaging electronic devices, such as fuse boxes, ECU’s and sensors among other
things. Hybrid Racing strongly urges the installer of this product to become familiar with wiring and com-
mon wiring procedures before attempting to install this product.
If you are unsure of something, or have any questions regarding this product or its installation please
feel free to create a support ticket at support.hybrid-racing.com or email us at support@hybrid-
racing.com. Remember its easier and cheaper to email us than it is to damage something and have to
replace it.
This wiring harness is designed to integrate a K-series engine into the chassis specified on the first page
of the install guide, it serves no other function. It allows the engine, ECU and the chassis to communi-
cate together. Without it, the car will not function.
Each engine wiring harness requires the use of a charging harness. You must have a charge harness
installed or your car will not crank and run properly. This charge harness connects the alternator and
starter directly to the battery and fuse box. **All charging harnesses are NOT the same**. To avoid
using the wrong charge harness use the charge harness from the same chassis that your motor and
engine harness came from.
I. Engine Harness Selection
Below is a list of engine harnesses that are COMPATIABLE with the HR conversion
harness:
 K20A (JDM 01-05 DC5 Type R)
This engine wiring harness is made for RHD cars and is shorter than the LHD versions.
Depending on how it is routed, It may be necessary to extend the end of the harness so
that it reaches into the cabin. It also does NOT have an oil pressure switch connector.
 K20A2 ( USDM 02-04 DC5 Type S)
This is the most commonly used engine wiring harness. It is the best length and works with
both a 5spd and 6spd transmissions.
 K20A3 (USDM 02-05 EP3 & 02-04 DC5 Base *5spd only)
This engine wiring harnesses is for 5spd transmissions and will NOT have the connector
for the reverse lock out solenoid on the transmission. This is not necessary but if you want to
have this function you will need a 6peed engine harness and ECU.
These engine harnesses ARE NOT compatible with this conversion harness:
 K20Z1 (USDM 05-06 DC5 Type S)
This harness does NOT support the 05-06 RSX KPRO.
 K20Z3 (USDM 06+ FG Civic Si)
Has Drive-By-Wire and different ECU connectors.
 Any K24 harness
(any year, 5spd or auto)
If you have a harnesses that is not compatible, please obtain one of the compatible en-
gine harnesses before continuing with the installation. If you connect this conversion
harness to the wrong engine harness, you can damage the ECU, engine sensors and
any wiring *This is VERY important* if you are unsure email us at support@hybrid
-racing.com with a picture of your parts and we will help you figure it out.
Introduction & Installation Notes
A little bit of K-series information to make sure you have the right parts before you get started!

II. K-series ECU Options
Ranked in order of Hybrid Racings preference. For questions on all of the options you can create a sup-
port ticket at support.hybrid-racing.com or email us at [e-mail]
1. Hondata Kpro
If you are utilizing a Kpro you will need to follow the steps outlined in this install guide to set eve-
rything up properly.
ECUs that can be Kpro’d and used with the hybrid racing harness.
PRB with code number A01-A12 and 305 02-04 RSX manual
PND 02-04 Base RSX manual
PNF 02-04 Civic Si manual
PRC 02-04 JDM Integra Type R manual
PPA 02-04 CRV manual
PRD 02-04 CTR manual
ECUs that will not work wit the hybrid racing harness
PRA 02-04 Civic Type R ( technically possible to have Kpro’d but will not have a wide-
band)
PRB A13-A16 05-06 RSX
2. US SPEC Stock ECU’s with an HR immobilizer removal unit. You can see this
unit on the Hybrid Racing website.
All US spec K-series ECU have a built in immobilizer system. If you want to use a stock ECU
you will need to purchase the HR immobilizer removal box. If you have a stock ECU and no HR
immobilizer removal box your ECU will not turn on the fuel pump and it will not send a signal to
your coil packs. You can use the HR immobilizer box with the following ECU’s
PRB with code number A01-A12 and 305 02-04 RSX manual
PND 02-04 Base RSX manual
PNF 02-04 Civic Si manual
PPA 02-04 CRV manual
Please use the ECU that is most suitable for your engine. For example, if you have a
K20A2 from an 02-04 RSX it is best if you use a K20A2 PRB ECU!
No other ECU’s will work with the immobilizer box and the Hybrid Racing harness.
3. JDM TYPE R PRC ECU.
If you have access to a JDM Type R ecu with the code PRC you do not need to utilize the HR
immobilizer removal box. This ECU does not have the same type of immobilizer. You will still
need to ground one wire to kick your fuel pump on as outlined later in the install guide.
4. AEM EMS
If you are utilizing an AEM EMS you will need to defer to there installation manual.
5. Other
There very well may be more options if you have questions you can create a support ticket at
support.hybrid-racing.com or email us at [e-mail]

Getting to know your conversion harness.
1. This is your C302 connector
plug and it connects to your K-
series engine harness.
2. This is your E plug connector
and it plugs directly into your K-
series ECU.
3. This is the C101 connector and
it connects under your dash on the
drive side.
4. This is your Data Link Connector
“DLC” and is used to read error
codes from the ECU with a scan
tool.
5. This is the primary connector
plugs into the k-series wideband
oxygen sensor
6. This is the oxygen sensor relay.
Now that you are familiar with the
connectors head to the next page.

Quick Overview
1. Run stock K-series engine harness through
fire wall.
2. Install conversion harness and ECU under
dash.
3. Connect 4 wires from conversion harness.
4. Plug in all connectors and secure everything
on passenger side.
5. Run conversion harness to driver side.
6. Route/Connect 3 wires into engine bay on
driver side.
7. Route Oxygen sensors.
8. Setup Kpro.
9. Connect battery and confirm charge harness
is in place.
10. Finished.

Install Guide
STEP 1: Pop the hood of your
car and remove the battery, bat-
tery tray and unbolt the fuse box.
You do not have to disconnect
the wires going into the fuse box.
We just want to make sure we
can move it out of the way to
gain access to the hole in the
firewall that you will be running
your K-series engine harness
ECU plugs into. Once all of these
things are out of the way you
should be staring at a Grommet
on your firewall.
STEP 2: Go ahead and pry this
grommet from the firewall and
make a small slit along the side
of it. so that you can get some of
your unused connectors along
with the K-series engine harness
through the firewall and still
maintain a clean look.
STEP 3: Locate and disconnect
the wiring on the passenger side
shock tower. These wires are for
the OLD STOCK ENGINE HAR-
NESS and will not be used. Go
ahead and push them through
the firewall so that they are now
under your dash.

Install Guide
STEP 4: Next run your engine
harness connectors through the
firewall. Secure the grommet
back into the firewall and use a
little electrical tape to wrap the
grommet to the K-series engine
harness. Once this is done you
can reinstall your fuse box and
battery tray. We recommend you
leave the battery disconnected
until everything else is complete.
STEP 5: Grab your ECU and HR
conversion harness and move
inside the car. Pull back the car-
pet, kick panel and remove the
stock ECU. You should now have
your K-series engine harness,
the STOCK K-series ECU,
STOCK OEM ECU connectors
and the HR conversion harness
ready to go.
STEP 6: There are three wires
that run out of the white E plug
connector. Go ahead and cut the
zip ties and straighten the wires
out. If you have a 92-95 civic or
94 Integra move to page 8, If you
have a 96-99 Integra move to
page 9 and if you have 00-01 In-
tegra go to page 10.
