Hey i know some ecu's can be used in different cars from the original but is there somewhere where i can see like a list, or somebody make one please, of ecus that can be swapped and used in the 240sx's because finding a matching number ecu is hard for me. I need one bad Like say a 91 240sx ka24de, can i use any ecus from sentras, maximas or altimas with the same engine?

I'm no expert but, i have a manual trans. 91 ka-de. and im useing an auto ecu. it just idles a little bit higher than i'd like, but just for a few seconds. just go to a local junk yard and pull one from there. If you have an auto then stick w/ the auto ecu. But on the pluss side if you have a manual then the auto ecu has no governor so you can be as reckless as you'd like

What about the years? does it matter?? I have a dohc s13 so i assume any auto ecu from 91-93 will work fine or is that not the case.And do ppl put manual ecu in auto or is that unheard of



Thanks for the replies

I saw the list you talked about, but it isn't complete some of the numbers (A**-B**-G**) are not listed there from ecu's that i had wanted to buy.
