OK Guys i got a couple of questions.. I went ahead and bought the 93 LS... I currently have a 1990... The problem with the 93 is the transmission is shot and AC button doesnt work..so they hard wired the compressor to a switch.. It also Has 300k but the Body is in phenomenal Condition.. the problem with the 1990 was that some one rear ended me and it got totaled... still drives car starts up only 90k on the motor and transmission.. I was thinking about swapping out the 90 motor and transmission to the 93...If this is possible what things do i keep.. and since im taking it out what should be done like timing belt motor mounts ETC to make it new as possible. And some one was telling me the ECU dont match up.. ALL HElP Would be Great. thanks......

check if the 93 has 2 tps sensors on the throttle body.

but its true, it has been discussed and seeing that u own a GS what makes u come to the LS forum and disturb our friendly environment with ur negativity? we're just trying to help the new guys by telling them to search so they come up with multiple threads with their situations. so your coming off as a dic|< with your last 2 posts in this forum.
