Are the ecu's interchangeable? I read in another thread that they were.

if the first 3 letters/numbers match then the ECU is interchangable, that is a decent rule of thumb for these cars.

for example a N332 ECU is interchangable with an N333 ECU.

the first 3 would be N33x, x being relatively irellevant(thank god the universe didn't implode after wording that).


this works for 86 through 88 models, obviously keeping turbo and non turbo segregated. series 5 have completely different pins on the ECU so the N350 and N370 are on their own with no interchangability.

N326 is from a 86-87 non turbo.

S5 vert should have either a N352 or N353.

N326 - 86-87 NA
N332 - 87 Turbo
N327 - 88 NA
N333 - 88 Turbo
N338 - 88 Vert
N350 - 89 NA California
N351 - 89 NA
N352 - 89 Vert California
N353 - 89 Vert
N370 - 89 Turbo
