s14a auto to manual conversion/manual ecu/NATS immobiliser removal
Hi guys, had my s14a a while and its been off the road for various bits of work. It was an auto and was converted to a manual by the previous owner. It always ran a little rough and I wonder if that was the ecu being an auto running what is now a manual car. Looking to get an AEM fuel/ignition controller unless I can get a standalone ecu suggested to me to run the spec I am after. So I am wondering about swapping to a manual ecu, removing NATS and removing the immobiliser that is already in the car and replacing it with a Clifford or similar unit. What should I do if I fit a manual ecu into the car? Can I strip out the NATS system or will I need to get the keys recoded at a Nissan dealer? Many thanks, Matt

Can't help with anything there other than the auto ecu won't be causing bad running. Mine was an auto converted to manual and I had no issues keeping the auto ecu and I know plenty of others who have done the same and kept their auto ecus as well.

Cheers for that, clears one thing up. I am debating going down the route of running an Apexi power fc am I right in assuming it will plug straight in or are the manual and auto plugs different?

I run a power fc now and it's plug and play

So a power fc should fit an auto loom? I assume it's an auto loom, judging by the state of the conversion lol.

It should do as mine has an auto loom.
When I said plug and play, I should probably be more specific in that I gave APT my car and they fitted the power fc for me along with other bits and pieces, so for me it was more a case of plugging my card in to their machine and paying (so technically plug and pay).

Ah ok nice one. I think power fc it is. Did you get it from APT or just get them to fit it?

I bought it privately and got them to fit it and some other bits and map it at the same time.

Ok bud, where did you get it if you don't mind me asking or wasn't it a company?

I got it off one of my mates that I think got it from APT (but not sure).
