Yeah Todd you'd need to get a 5 speed EX ECU or use the LX one. Maybe getting an EX ECU might help, outta be easy to find a junkyard.

i did the same swap except i have a 1991 and i used the old tranny. you should do the same just use the old tranny. then you dont have to change anything. the only problem you might have is routing the o2 sensor my new harness ex has no hook up for o2. so the check engine lights on but whatever it runs beatifully.

He wants to know if you can use the auto ECU with a manual tranny. I don't think you can.
