It figures that it would work great for you. I'll have to put it back in my Q and see if it's as smooth as butter like it is in your Q. Your Q is still the only one I've seen here. I've seen some I 35's and a few G35's but not one Q besides yours.

PS. the cheesecake factory rocks!! and you missed the Napoleon Dynomite look alike contest at America's pub with the real Pedro. Girl girl make out contest was cool too!!

LOL, since returning to St Louis a couple years ago I've been stuck with my nose in the school books. I bet now you've seen more of the town than me!

I -love- holding the gear at 7100rpm. I'm going to get a damn ticket. And the smoother shifts at low speeds is quite nice!

The difference is the name... TCM is a more accurate (per FSM) description.. TCU=TCM

Technically speaking there are "modules" and "units"... The modules contrul the units.. So you have the ECM (engine control module, actually called ECCS control unit per FSM), TCM (tranny control module) and BCM (body control module), and then you have units.... For instance you have the LCU's (local control units) which rae located in the doors to do the doors and windows, which are controlled by the BCM...

Whenever you hear module, it is usually the main computer for that system, and the unit is usually a sub division controlling a specific area of said system...

Tues I'll call around 6.

In my 92 FSM the ECU is refered to as ECU or ECCS and not ECM. The 92 FSM does say TCM in reference to the transmission control unit and not TCU. So it's a little confusing.
