I'm planning on doing an auto to manual transmission swap. The trans is from a 95 s14 and I have a 96; do I buy the OBD1 ECU that it came with or do I buy a OBD2 ECU?

transmission doesnt affect your engine management computer.

Ok. thanks everyone for replying! I have read a lot threads but ive never made one myself; and considering the fact the most people in my life have no idea what I'm talking about when it comes to cars, I'm glad I have Nico club for help.
