hey does any one kno wat wire go to the engine computer from the auto computer as im doin a auto to manual conversion and would to do away with the auto ecu if possible and any related wire from the engine bay

All I can say is there is a 10? pin plug behind the battery, connected to the auto trans, there is a black/yellow wire here which will need to be bridged. its your starter wire and I would assume it ran through the inhibitor before, but yes, join these two together in order for it to crank!

no no i wana kno wat wires are the ones that go to the engine ecu from the tranny ecu if thats them then beauty i will remove the rest

I have done a manual conversion

no need for extra work or worry

you can just unplug the tranny computer
it is redundant without the automatic

and run the existing auto engine ECU

the only wiring needed is the neutral starting switch bridge

and the reverse light activation wires
the TCU doesnt use them

for the conversion to work

i suppose ur right they'll be removed later on down the track ;)

are the drive shafts different in the manual and autos?? and also do u need to change the water pipe in the vally of the engine??

With what motor you are using you should be right in regards to the water pipe, Driveshafts, not sure dude.

um it's just the standard motor i've gone put on the shifter cables and the holder in the engine bay hits the water pip in the valley of the engine

you need to fit the water pipes of the manual motor

because the manual curves away to make room for the shifters and cables

the auto water pipes go straight

dont remember about the driveshafts

what ever fits the best

there is a difference in the drive shafts, only one tho, i cant remember which one it is, its like 10mm shorter or something. changing ECU is a massive job, there is a crap load of wiring, with that loom also having other looms branched off it. such as ABS and SRS systems then door locks ignition barrels and new keys. i looked into it, and thought hmmmm or i could just join these two wires together.

EDIT: oh i didnt realise you were talking about a 2nd gen, might be a bit different

lol yeh i got a new intermediate sahft which is the shorter one
thanx for the info on the water pipes

I have made my DOHC one work by using a brass adaptor to change where the heater pipe comes in, it is a perfect fit now with the shift cable resting on the side of it. They only made my motor as automatic so I didn't have another option.

So, that's another option.

have u got any pics i dont really want to pull the pipe outta the valley

i got it all sorted i just need to get the intermediate shaft as the other one i got was wrong :( apart from that it's all done
