I have been reading stuff for 2 hours (fuuuuu…)and it seems that to have the engine run smoother in my s13, that I need a manual ECU for the auto to manual swap.

I cannot figure out exactly which ECU I need for the KA24DE engine, since they are all numbered. Don’t want to buy the wrong one. It seems that #24 is the one, but I am not sure. Anyone able to help out here?

The motor is a 1993 ka and the transmission is a 92. Hope this helps to figure it out.
