Ok please help me out guys...I have read several threads and know it says that I can use an s13 manual trans on my 96 zenki....the trans comes with its original manual ECU which is a 94 i'm told. Will the manual S13 ECU not work with my 96 S14? I've been researching but would appreciate an answer with some facts...I will be buying this very soon and I would hate to buy the wrong stuffthanks guys,

classified forums on nico is prob best place. you might try ebay also and deal with a person who knows how to ship and cares about his feedback.
