A friend and I are performing a swap from automatic to manual this weekend, and we were wondering if we will need the ECU from the donor car. Early and correct answers are appreciated, for reason of distance from Donor.

Thanks Guys,

You will unless you know someone that can open up the ecu and switch around a few of the resistors. From what I hear the difference is that a few of the resistors are switched around.

 

its simple to change from auto to manual. go to http://pgmfi.crx-forum.org and SEARCH. Do not ask any questions about how to do this, it is already there. The guys there are harsher on newbs who dont search than the people on this board.

 

No one asked HOW to do this... I have done more engine work in my 27 years than I would care to share... I merely asked for an answer to a QUESTION that I had no answer to. We are DOING the swap. Pedals are hung, master cylinder is in place, auto trans is out on the floor, etc, etc...

I don't need any help with what to do. I just needed to know if we had everything required... By the way, what if you do a search, and nothing turns up??? My title reads trial user... But oddly enough it never changed at the time when I could start posting... (rubbing chin, hrmmmm.)
Far from trial user... (sigh it never changes does it?)

I Ain't mad at cha.

BTW, anyone need a B18 auto tranny? (CHEAP)
Thanks!!!
