Default The right or wrong ECU with the H22

Looked for an H22 engine today and found one. Looks very clean and in good chape.

There is just one thing im confused about. The ECU which comes with the engine has the code:

37820-P13-N50
553 J-AT

I'm not sure if this is the right ECU because of the J-AT. Does it stands for Automatic Transmission in this case? Because the engine is just MT. So I thought I would need a J-MT or something like that.

The seller said he sold this ECU with every engine and non came back. Just want to make sure.

Is it the right one or not. Thx

EDIT: A friend of mine gave me this link: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/pts/253900081.html

It says that the J-AT is for the Automatic, so the ECU which I get with my engine is for the Automatic tranny, right? Will my ECU which will work on a MT engine, has the code J-MT?

Just what I thought. Friend of mine looked also and he has also a J-MT. Thx for asking but don't need to buy one because I get one with my engine.

This is the one I need I think (pointed by green):

...and then in a J-MT version?

Only...what's the differents between 2W and 4W. I read it has to do with 2 Wheel Steering and 4 Wheel Steering. I've got a 4WS prelude. When I want to keep the 4WS system, only the 4W will work?

Anyone?

There are lots of people here which swapped the H22 engine. Please would you be so kind to just look for a moment? (and tell me if you have 4WS to incase I need a 4W ECU instead of the 2W)...

Well hell IF it's a good deal who cares. The auto can be modified to work perfectly fine with manual with 1 simple solder connection if your handy.

For sure it's JDM-spec auto ECU which can be turned into manual quite easy. You can use 2W ECU with 4WS.

Bought it today... I'm the new owner of a very good looking H22 OBD-1. I'm getting the J-AT ECU with the engine so it needs to be modified.

Is there a how-to? Or can anyone explain (hope with pics) how it can be modified?

Thx

Sweet! Easy as hell like this...

But this is a OBDII ECU. The same codes and stuff will be used on the OBDI ECU, right?
