Okay guys,

I've got 96 Sport (pre MY96 though) and a '95 DOHC EJ20 Turbo Engine + Gearbox...

I'll need to uprate my brakes obviously, and I'm assuming the ECU...

I gather that the engine should fit with little coercing but I was wondering what else am I really looking to do for an engine swap...Any other major specialist jobs involved?

Labour is no probs, neither is time really.

I'd really appreciate any feedback I can get...

You'll need the bonnet too!

My sister has an MY96 sport and the loom has lots of connectors that aren't being used, is it the same loom but with the turbo bits not in place due to bits not being used? I am about to put 280mm turbo discs and calipers on hers too and have them sat in my garage ready to go on. Yours being an MY96 should have discs on the rear already doesn't it? they went to drums after that.
