im pretty sure all u will need is the ecu and the motor. please someone confirm but im sure thats all we did to my car. just remember you may need an auto electy to wire your dash plug in to the new computer because i think its a diff plug. so make sure you get all three plugs with the ECU

Ok thanks. I might just put another bluetop in it to make it simple. When putting in another engine that has done about 100,000 on it what things should I replace ?
Timing belt and engine seals ?

yeah wack some platinum plugs in it, change your timing belt, 2 cam seals, 1 crank seal and check your water pump 2 make sure its not leaking.

... and check your clutch plate while you have the chance.
Best to get the engine loom and underdash loom from the 100kw if doing the red top conversion. From memory the Twinky runs power to the driver's kick panel by running a wire across the radiator panel and along the wheel arch whereas the SX runs it through the firewall. ECU plugs are definitely different and this gets around that problem as well.

Thanks but I think the 100kw conversion seems too time consuming. I need my car up and running very soon. Ill have to source some oil seals and timing belt.
