Nothing fits lol - like maybe 2 plugs total and thats it :-( For example the Throttle position sensor has 6 wires coming from it - my harness and the FSM shows three..... Is this normal? Do I need an older SE-R harness?

Well, you should be able to plug in virtually all of them. You may have to reroute the harness and/or extend it in some areas since the 96 harness is for a low port engine. The SR20DET is a high port engine. Therefore, the wires might need to be slightly redirected or extended.
You will need to replace both water temp sending units with USM units. They will plug into your harness. The injectors, knock sensor, oil presure switch, etc., etc. will plug in. Be aware that you will have to switch to a USM TPS. You will also have to use the distributor from a 96+ SE-R as the 96 harness is for a different distributor with an internal coil. There are some hints on SE-R.net of changes that must be made when installing a DET in a 95+ SE-R.
If you were to use a different harness, you would want to use a 91/92 harness. It will lay right up. You will only end up with one unused connector and only have to redirect one wire/connector.

Also - anyone know where to get what the stampings on the motors mean - my says SR20 - then a number and at the end 961A or 96A (can't remember at the moment) - does that mean its a 96 motor?

No idea. Probably not though.

There is a definite learning curve.
