   whats needed to convert a vtr to vts apart from the engine itself and the ecu?
   
   does the wiring come apart from the front end of the car or do i need to change the whole lot?

   Engine, ECU, rad, ideally gearbox and shafts.
   
   There are a few peole that will do the conversion for you for a few hundred if you supply the bits, and a few that you can "drive in, drive out" with the conversion.
   
   Unless you are perfectly competent and confident I would just get someone else to do it and worry about what bits you need

   You will need the main engine loom.
   
   If you get a 3 plug ecu you can splice the looms but it's a much easier job if you get a sngle plug ECU engine

   Main loom can stay, just your engine loom that will need to change
