Some of us are out here to help you not come off like an ***...that was not my intentions but...you will get that alot...
but is your car a s4 or s5? and what year did you say it was a 90?
well hopefully the motor is a s5 because the TII motors from the s4 and s5 models are different.
If you have a n/a motor that was not turbo you are going to need to get
A. S4 or S5 TII US spec harness for your car ( depending on the year)
B. TII ecu that doesnt matter so much i believe if its JDM or US model
C.If you have a n/a you are going to need to get a whole TII rear end or you can purchase a n/a to TII tranny drive shaft for like 300 bucks. WHich if you can find a whole TII rear end and drive shaft then i would go that wrote.
D. Depending you will need to get a knockbox sensor ran in your car for the TII motor.. i believe that depends on a few things.
E. Other than that have fun with the swap.
