Ok, I've got a guy that wants me to install a 1993 S13 KA24DE Engine and 5-speed Transmission into a S14. If I remember reading correctly, these two aren't that compatible. I know the harnesses are different, but are the mounts also different (especially the transmission)? If I change the connectors on the harness end, will that still work? I'm charging the guy $25/hr and I need the money as I want to move to California and improve my chances at getting exposed to racing (the passion of my life and the reason, that I believe, I was put on this Earth for).
The parts are the same. Mounts are the same. The wiring is what's different.

Don't use the S13 intake and exhaust systems. Instead use the original S14 intake and exhaust; now you can use the existing OEM engine harnes and everything should plug together.

Ok, I'll give that a try. Got a little more information on the original KA, timing belt snapped. Told him what could happen if that does, but I should be taking a look at it soon. It's also looking more like I'm staying in VA, but I still want to build my drift car so I finally start getting this career in gear. (Ok, that rhymed, so that was )
If the timing chain broke, there could be damage, but more than likely nothing that isn't salvageable with a spare motor.

I've been messing with Hondas and Toyotas too much, then. Anyway, you're right shouldn't be anything I can't fix with spares and light to minor machining.
