[QUOTE="Big[V], post: 2355103, member: 31224"] I dun think there will be any need to swap to manual ecu if u are converting local ej civics to manual provided that the ecm and tcm are seperate modules. just rewire some of the hard wires to trick the car thinking it is on park so that you can get the key out. this applies to 96-98 ek3 jdm 1.5L civics too. Saying so I am not sure that using back the auto ecu the engine can engage vtec. Honda ECU's are built in such a way that if one of the components are malfunctioning (i.e. removing the auto gearbox will trigger the ecu to think that the gearbox failed, unless it is tricked otherwise) it will go into limp mode i.e. all basic engine functions will work, but no vtec. CEL will light up in this case i think. Anyone can comment on this would be a great help+info Unlike the latter civics (99-00 both jdm and malaysian spec) with the tcm+ecm combined so swapping to manual would require the genuine manual ecu to work.

eibach pro-kit experience
Guys,
Anyone here has any experience using Eibach Pro-Kit sport spring? I'm interested in this product because it only lowers your car 1.3"-1.5" and claims that you still can use your stock absorber. The Eibach...
