It’s a big job for sure mate, expensive too. I wouldn’t attempt even a like for like engine swap so I don’t blame you there.

Totally get that bought mine the other day, with cosemtics already done, coilovers, front splitter, new alloys so in that respect I`m quite happy ordered some ascetic stuff and I think I`m done, having said that after reading your build things might change. Question for you how hard was it to get the steering wheel controls to work? I miss cruise control and that is something I would be looking into

I had to get a spacewalker module and do a bit of soldering to attach spacewalker’s module to my existing module.
I just followed spacewalker’s how to. It was quite straight forward

Evening mate, do you know the part number or what car you got the engine cover off? And did you have to do anything with the oil cap?
