Ok I looked and all I can find is a 7 bolt to a 6 bolt swap. The shell I'm buying has been wired for a 6 bolt. Is it going to be ridiculously hard to put it back to 7 bolt wiring? I probably sound dumb but I'm not into all the wiring stuff yet. Thank you in advance!
 
What year is the car? 95 they probably swapped the coil and injector wires. But if it still has the 2nd gen harness, which it should, it shouldn't be that bad. The biggest difference is the 2nd gen has cam and crank sensors and the 6 bolt does not, unless they did a 6 bolt with a 7 bolt head, then there is no wiring issues.

Maybe take some pictures so we can identify what you have.
 
IT is hard to say without seeing it. They could of used a 1g cas swap harness, they could of made their own, they could wired the cas plug directly in. You could just use the 1g cas if you don't want to mess with the wiring.

Its a 97 gsx. and i'm not sure if he used a harness or not. i'm going to pick up the shell this weekend.

sounds a lot easier than messing with a bunch of wires. thank you both!
