so i have the major parts for the auto to manual swap but now i need help
 i would love to do it myself and everything...i just dont have the experience, or man power for that matter ive gotten the ever popular "its not worth it, just buy a new car" which i choose to ignore, the "well i could do it for $2,000" which is way over my budget, and the wannabe mechanic doing work out of his garage who says "id love to try, can i give you an estimate" then never answers the phone again id trust a 6gc-er over anyone else anyway so i figured id at least ask before looking elsewhere any more i will pay, just let me know what you think is fair and i'll tell you if i can pay it please help thanks This post has been edited by hurley97: Aug 9, 2006 - 9:03 AM -------------------- |

U really didn't have to get a new ECU for the Manual. You could just re-wire the auto ecu to fool it and make it work. But its safe to have one just in case.

But its safe to have one just in case. Dan (Playr158) gave me the ECU with the tranny. Its a 96 ECU with a 94/95 (we assume) tranny on a 97 Celica. Works perfectly - no CEL, starts every time, no problems whatsoever...so far  the part numbers on the 96 and 97 ECU's are different. its been said the 96 ECU may put out different codes than the 97 but I have no idea if there is any truth to that statement. but for the one day that I've had it, it works fine. you would never be able to tell it was ever anything but a manual
