Dont put me to it but i think these are the basic's
c4 with everythin on it + box, ek4 mounts, ek4 pre-facelift enigne loom, shafts, might need different hose pipes for rad

conversion harness to run a different ecu, not sure if the c4 ecu will work because of the immoboliser....

im not an expert on engine swaps so im proberly wrong about a couple of things so correst me if im wrong.

atleast a vti setup imo, tbf you can get 4x114 setups fairly cheap now, just means getting new wheels (i can get some SICK 4x114 rims btw)

i wont have to change wheels because they got 4 stud universal pattern on them,
im thinkin to do brake conversion first then do engine conversion after so when i have the b18 i can stop lol

wot ecu will i have to use? (the same b18c4 ecu i get with the engine or diffrent)

thats the best order to do it in, plus with your d14 u will be able to stop later therefore go faster Wink

The c4 ecu has an immob on board, so to save fucking around with that you can use any none immob b series and just get it chipped

it will drop straight in being as you got all the right stuff, i'd say get some mb6 hubs.... but then your gonna need for them to work properly the brake master cylinder + booster and the prop vales igf thats whats its called, the one what changes your front to back ratio.

a chipped p28 ecu is best bet (out of eg esi)
you also need b series gear linkages

if you want to keep your alloys, find out what the other PCD is, incase they are 4x108.

Ive got a front vti setup for sale if your interested off a coupe so you can keep your alloys 100% , PM if your interested.

o ye forgot about linkages haha ye what aky said about the p28 they're better for tuning.

aky his wheels are multi fitment, if you wanna get rid throw them on cviclife im sure they will get snapped up on there.

I know alloys are multi, just saying double check they are 4 x100 and 4x114 incase they different.
Only sayin that cos i had a set off alloys which were 4x100 and 4x108.
If he is 100% sure then deffo get the MB6 swap, bigger is better Very Happy
