Toyota is telling me that they can't find an ecu for a 91 ge 5spd. Inside the continental U.S. . Are you guys getting that responce from toyota???

I hate to go stand alone just to over ride the ecu. It seems like a lot of cash.
I would gladly give 1k for a new toyota stocker ecu.

I don't feel like I have anyone around me that I would trust to send it to.

The 1JZGTE swap into your car from a N/A isnt that unreachable. I did mine and I have about 6500 dollars invested in the whole car. Granted I am about to put a whole lot more money into it with that F-CON v pro and stuff but I got that at a decent price. But as Supra2nr was saying it is more about what floats your boat the 7M's are nice dont get me worng but there is just as much people out there that will tell you that the 1JZ is nicer and the 2JZ is even better than that. Me personally I am tired of dealing with 7M's you can drop a 1JZ in your car and drive the crap out of it with no worries. But as I said it is up to you. Also with changing out your fuel pump, fuel pressure reg., downpipe, and putting a boost controller on your 1JZ you could be at over 300 to the ground. Not bad in my book. Oh and would a 87 n/a stock ECU work for your car cause I got one laying around.

You're right.

I researched msd and it's all ignition. I assumed that if aem did it msd would as well.

I found the aem you were speaking of it's black with yellow insignia.
That's probably the ticket.

Thanks.

My ecu has to be a 90 to 92. Thanks though.

I started out with bhg and i ended up doing everything I could get my hands on down to the cf hood. Eibach springs and tokico shocks. Everything under the hood is new even the crank pulley.

Wait till you have to find one of those new, ha. 350 bucks.
