if you tried to plug in the uk ecu it wont fit, im sure 2 wires would need swapping around.
please say if im wrong on this. im sure it all wires in engine side if you had say a v3-v4 engine but if you tried to plug the uk ecu in then that is where your problems will lie. you cant run the jap ecu as your timing would be out also the cams on the sti block rev higher, engine will end up going pop!
