I did the same. And the reason we can't use 1-4 as the nss wires is cuz they run to tcu then to ecu so in our case bratman w/o tcu, ecu never gets a signal, this is why when I hook the nss directly to ecu and grounded to chassis the p1101 goes away. That's why when I used manual ecu idle sucked and was getting codes that I shouldn't have at that time cuz there was no signal for being in neutral or not so iac was acting up n throwing everything else off. Since hooking the nss up directly to ecu I think my original ecu has malfunction in it somewhere I'm pretty sure. I put the ecu from the 98 5 speed legacy in and all codes are gone (put 200 miles on her today) but the ones for the vapor canister and fuel pressure sensor which my car doesnt have Car runs way better and idles normal. I will deal the cel for those codes until I can get my hands on 96 ej22 ecu that doesn't have the fuel pressure sensor, vapor canister, etc. I love burning bridges. Lol report me block me warn me ban me I really don't care

Fwiw Gloyal you need to read my posts before u imply or say anything cuz you would know how i had it wired up if you read it and I never said interlock relay was hooked to "nss" and if you have a manual car u have a starter interlock relay look in your fsm under starting system u will see it And how it is wired, on another note all grounds end up grounding to chassis eventually, yea bolt on Im is grounds follow thos wires into the main loom and they tie into cplsensors and the grounds to shock towers and guess what the engine and tranny also ground out to the chassis as well so I think grounding it to chassis is fine, oh wait where does the battery ground out the chassis. Or just look in your fsm for grounds n check em all out n where they go. Oh and btw the way I originally had my ns hooked up even the ecu from the manual car would throw codes for egr and nss and that car had no egr so explain to me why it would throw codes for something it never had. Yes it's a neutral safety switch. Your an idiot who thinks u know everything when in reality you don't have a clue.

Ok first off it had 2.2 to begin with. Starter interlock isn't hooked up to the nss like someone thinks it's under the dash hooked to clutch switch and ignition like its supposed to be and is in the manual models. I don't have to use egr and auto intake manifold. When the car is in manual mode it's knows to forget about it. I put 300 miles on it after I first did the swap and had 2codes had p1101 (nss) and p0441 evaporative emission control system incorrect purge flow. And I used manual vss from donor. It's the same as auto besides it has a pigtail off it because the vss is farther back on tranny then the auto, ask Subaru they will tell you the same they have same part numbers, besides last letter after the dash which tells u which plug is on the vss. When I changed my nss wiring which I only changed the ground side of it (other side still goin to pin 82) grounding it to chassis instead of the ground it uses in from ecu in stock wiring harness which when I did this got egr code back instantly, and eventually the p1702, and the iac code, when i go back to how I first had nss wired and reset ecu, the egr code instantly gone and then after about 75 miles cel comes on for p1101 and p0441 which I have no matter how anything is wired and had that code come up when the auto was in it still along w a faint gas smell coming from rear end of my car, put new fuel and vacuum lines back there and it passed smoke test and I can fill my tank let it sit for days n no moisture or gas on it anywhere so there def no leaks in tank itself. Both ecus I have are for ej22 one came from my auto and other came from a 98 manual Both leggy as well. Your guys thoughts on using the auto tcu or manual tcu. I was told take it completely out since I don't care about cruise already took it all out of my car I never use it cuz I never on highway w this car, and my abs is gone as well cuz I hate abs period it's more dangerous then helpful in my opinion. 86 bratman what exactly did you for your swap

Ok so I recently did a 5 speed swap in my 96 legacy ls. Codes I am currently getting is ,p0403,p0441, and lost my p1101 and gained a p1702 and p0505 To sum u up on what I've done is: put 5 speed tranny and rear dif from 96 impreza in, I used auto inhibitor switch plug ran 9-10 to reverse switch, spliced 11-12 together cuz I used starter interlock relay from donor car and installed it under dash as it would in actual manual car, ran pin 1 (pin 82 on ecu)to nss and grounded other side of switch. I originally used pin 4 for other side of nss cuz its a ground from ecu but kept getting p1101 so I just grounded it to chassis now I'm getting p1702 and p0505. I added pin 81 and grounded it (mt identifier) I used manual intake manifold w/o egr and all the sensors none of my vacuum lines changed besides egr stuff being gone. I tried manual ecu but it was throwing codes for fuel pressure sensor and pressure solenoid and vapor canister my car had none of these. my sending unit doesn't have pressure sensor on it and my car isn't wired for it and I have charcoal canister up front so no pressure solenoid or vapor canister behind right rear tire like the donor had so that ecu didn't work good at all. idle was messed up no power ran like crap put my ecu back in and motor runs good besides these codes and a slightly low idle. Before I changed the grund from ecu to chassis for nss I only had p1101 and p0441 for codes I appreciate any and all help or input.
