   if you start the car and unplug the keypad then that will disable your imobiliser mate, then use the ecu and loom and it will drop in
   whats it going into? a westy or a 1.1?
   
   if you have the opportunity get the rear axle off a vtr too that way u got a rear disk conversion too and if you got the front struts ud have 4 studs, assuming you now have 3
   hope thatnhelps a bit
