I have an '88 7MGTE with 5 speed transmission. I'm about to buy an auto ECU from another member here, but I have a question. Every thread I've run into only talks about swapping the auto ECU and the auto harness into a 5 speed car.
Since I have a manual harness, how do I go about bypassing...
*IF* I remember correctly, 3 of the cables coming out of that plug do end up in a ground (or 2) right below the fuse box on the driver's side fender. I have to go visit the car and double check to make sure (the cables leading to those grounds are the same color though). Still, I'd like to...
Aside from my other thread with a dead end cable, I've found myself in a bit of a stump.
I had the not so brilliant idea to move a few things around in the engine, mainly the fuel injector resistor and the ignitor to right in front of the master brake cylinder. That required cutting a few...

I mean the little things like the ones I've already mentioned: JJ's igniter ground, the 12v fuel pump relay, daisy chaining all the grounds, COP, so on so on so on so on.
I've seen 2 different guides I believe for a short shifter, but not too intrigued by it.
To explain it in different words...
Nick M: "The little things that add up" is a figure of speech. JJ's "repair" often gets referred to as a "mod" in a few of the threads mentioning it, so I call it a "mod" to keep the trend. You get the idea (I hope). I'm not concerned with simple semantics.
suprarx7nut: Already done...
I've seen many threads talk about the little mods you can do to these cars but it's somewhat of a hassle to find them all. I'm talking about those small mods that eventually all add up and you start noticing a difference, like jetjock's igniter ground mod.
Anybody care to mention a few so...
