cool, i am a long way form actually doing the swap ... i still have to save the 5-6k needed for it ....that should take me a year or so .... i just want to get everything figured out way ahead of time so that i can do it as fast as i can


the swap itself is not hard at all smile.gif ..but the re-wiring will give you a BIG headache! biggrin.gif thats if you get the st185


i will defintly get a st205 clip , and the wirring will be done by a pro .... i will try and ask them to mark the wires for me to amke it easier .....

I have A question : Does the transmission have like a separate ECU ? reason why i ask this is because i have an AUTO which will turn into manual during the swap and i want to know if i need to buy like a manual ECU ..... but i am not sure....
The ECU that will come with your engine will be fine, IIRC(?) there are no automatic 3s in either the st185 or the st205.

i am not sure what u mean with the second part of the sentence , but all i can say is that i have an auto tranny now and i will buy a S54 tranny when i swap .... hope that explained
ok, what i mean is if you are using a s54 and you get a 3s clip or engine set etc you will be fine as long as you get the ecu for that engine.
