Is there any difference with the 1.6L EFI Vitara Motors that come with Auto or Manual Gearboxes?
Is there any difference witht he Computers that come with either of these two gearboxes.
In other words - if the eventual aim is a 1.6L Vitara Engine with EFI and a Sierra 5 Speed gearbox behind it, will an engine and computer that came with an Auto gearbox be usable?

Thanks
Depending on the box behind the motor .. if it was a non poota 3 speed then yep .. even a poota'd 4 speed auto should still be workable .. I think ..

I guess the other question is - can anyone confirm that the computers are different between an Auto or Manual vitara?
Ring some wreckers ... they are sure to help you ..

Dunno Antt. I haven't found an engine yet, but i just wanted to know if both computer types would be compatible for what i want, or if i needed to increase my search criteria to Manual Computers only. It looks like that is not the case.
For the auto starter problem, isnt there just a switch for when the auto is N or P it is the only time it will start. So find this wire and connect the wires together. Or put a switch on it and use it as an eninge imopiliser.
yes it will work fine.....i cant remember the wire colours...but you use the starter wire ig..ive got it on paper somewhere ...ill find it and post it up...
