jarz21 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 After a seemingly exhausting search of the forum, I am still having difficulty identifying exactly what cruise control ECU would be used in my car. My car (EJ22, MT) was built in March of 1996, which I'm finding may make it more similar to a 1997 model year Impreza than a 1996. I've also read that there was a change from cable-driven to electronic speed metering in 1998 sometime. I called multiple dealers and they claim that the cruise ECU part number for my car based on VIN is 87022 FA707; however, I cannot reference to that part number anywhere online/ in the forum. According to this website, part 87022 FA031 should supersede part 87022 FA030 for manual transmission Imprezas from '92 to '00: http://opposedforces.com/parts/impreza/us_g10/type_59/manipulation/cruise_control_equipment/illustration_4/. I've called countless salvage yards and they either have no Imprezas or only have cruise ECUs from cars with automatic transmissions. I was wondering if anyone with a (March) 1996 or later Impreza EJ22 with manual transmission and functioning CC could confirm their cruise control ECU part number for me. If you could also indicate whether the cruise was already installed, installed from kit, or pieced together from junkyard cars, that could be helpful as well. I appreciate any input that anyone can provide. I'm really trying to get cruise control installed. My ankle was really sore after over 7 hours behind the wheel yesterday! I already have the main switch, steering wheel control lever, brake & clutch switches, and vacuum actuator & cable (which is from a '93 Impreza and is 1" too short).

Legacy777 Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I've got the same problem. I tried to piece the parts together to put cruise on my 97 OBS a couple years ago. The main hurdle was that the cable was too short. It just hasn't been at the top of my priority list, but I really need to see if I can find a shop that will make a cable that is 1" longer. I've got an ECU, but don't know where it is at the moment. I believe it was out of a 94 Impreza though. I'm not sure why any MT cruise ECU wouldn't work....

jarz21 Posted April 3, 2010 Author Share Posted April 3, 2010 Bump. Anybody have any part numbers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarz21 Posted April 19, 2010 Author Share Posted April 19, 2010 I managed to find a '97 OBS with manual transmission and cruise control, but go figure, the cruise ECU had already been removed. Fortunately, I was at least able to get the actuator and cable, so now all I need is a cruise ECU to see if my setup will work. So in a last-ditch effort to get help, does anyone even own a '96-'97 Impreza with manual transmission and cruise control? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
