as far as using an auto ecu in a manual car, it's no problem. i run an auto bluebird ecu in my 5speed g20 and there are absolutely no ill effects. good luck with the swap.

Yes, it came out of the avenir... and my car is obd II. I never even thought about that... crap... guess if I try to go it too cheap, Im just making more work for myself.... sheesh...
Thanks for the info!!! I'll be going for it this weekend.. we'll see how it goes!!
