I am 99% sure as long as it isn't the typex s13 sr then a red top ecu will work on a s13 black top.

they are pretty rare so I would be willing to bet it's not, but the sr faq will help. I would read through it. E5 ecu's are pretty common and you could probably find one at heavy throttle or even ebay for cheap I think there were only a couple hundred typex engines produced.
