I'm going from an automatic tranny to a e153 on a 1996 Camry (5sfe) and I wasn't sure what to do with the Ecu. The thing that I wasn't sure about is the fact that the 5sfe models never came with e153 (but they did for a s51) and I wasn't sure if I should still go with the s51 ecu, or the e153 one. Anyone know? Thanks This post has been edited by RichieRichJP: Sep 21, 2008 - 9:13 AM -------------------- My 436whp MR2

As long as it is a manual ecu it could careless what Manual transmission you are putting in. Go with the s54 ecu. You'll be fine, as long as it is for a manual trans. -------------------- 98 Celica gt red- totaled deer 94 Celica st black DD (bad weather beater)- totaled deer 95 Celica gt silver- chassis sold 88 Celica All-Trac (Burned to a crisp) 94 Celica gt white (sold) In need of a rust free chassis!!!!
