Does anyone know where I might be able to find a rare JDM ECU? Specifically, I'm looking for a JDM ECU for the ST162 Celica with the 3S-GE. It would allow me to make quite a few more horsepower(JDM ST162s have 160 horsepower, not 135 like mine.)
So far I've asked Intec Racing(shop in Seattle), HorsepowerFreaks(shop in Portland), Kwanza, Bryan(the devilmaycrie), a couple sellers selling JDM first gen. 3S-GEs on eBay, the local tuner shops, people in Australia on the ToyMods forum, etc. But no-one seems to have any idea where to find one. Anyone have any ideas?

Changing out the ECU does not make you rice- usually it's one of the best ways to make more HP

I just sent off an email to Roo, so maybe I'll get a reply back.
