Also, I have a 94 and 97, and you have a 96. That should represent all of the TCUs and ECUs. Can you take a pic of the TCU and ECU, where the plugs go, so we can verify the exact wiring of each of them?

I am thinking I can take the plugs from my spare body harness (or find new connectors) and a DIY BOB from here and make an adapter if someone needs one.

So what im understanding in this thread is that a obd2 svx cant have a MT without a cel on. Unless you use a obd2 to obd1 connecter. Is that correct? And if so would that still pass a emissions test?

I might be able to get a 96 but i wouldnt want to unless i can MT it with no cel as cali will fail you on a emission test if you have any cel on.

No. You would no longer have OBD2 communication so it would fail any inspection that would require hooking up an obd2 code reader.

I should be able to make more of them, if Tom's ok with that.

If the price is good, I'm interested.

Honestly though, I would like to "trick" the OBD2 computer first and try to maintain my emissions comparability. While I would LOVE to have access to the ECUTune catalog with OBD1, that comes second to fixing my cracked flex plate.

Also, I'm holding out hope that someday, someone will release ECU re flashes for the OBD2 cars.

I'm working on that too actually, I need to pull the firmware from the ECU of my 97 and send it to LAN, and see if it can be flashed with the ECUtuner cable.

If I had to deal with the kind of inspection crap that you guys do, I'd just change the vin over to a 92 or something and call it done.

Even that would be complicated. The vin # coincides with the odometer reading also. unless you found one vin #! With a little more miles or changed the dash Gage's < LOL> I think they would catch it. :mad::lol:

The cars are at minimum 15 years old. There are very few states that truly REQUIRE you to disclose the odometer on cars this old. In Wisconsin for instance, once a car is 10 years old, they are exempt from any odometer readings and even if you enter it, your new title will leave the spot blank.

Or places that actually check the odometer...

The VIN is in multiple places on the car, and on the paperwork. How can you just change it to a 92?
