From the '93 model! '94 TCU won't work.

Check part number and post here to be sure. I don't know the right part number without looking, but somebody else probably does. Or search on "93 TCU" an you may find it.

from Nov 2002 post by Heath (q451990): "....make sure the part number is either 31036-64U20 or 61036-64U75"

I have '93 TCU in my '92 Q and love it... but the 1-2 shift will be kinda rough for a while. Just takes some getting used to.

"but the 1-2 shift will be kinda rough for a while. Just takes some getting used to." unless you also swap the 93 engine ecu.......kind of a matched set.

Do the owners realize "you have access for parts"? :D j/k

If you have access, does that mean some of us might be able to have access for a reasonable fee?

I'm not in the market for anything at this time, but I know we all can use a good spare part here and there.
