What are peoples thoughts on them?
2002 model

What needs to be done to change the engine in one?
ECU etc?

Can get one cheap with a snapped cam belt.

Cheers

It's a nightmare, parts are expensive, I'm pretty sure you would also need a new lock set, engine ecu and body computer

I've just double checked, i think I've confused it with the process for an Alfa..

Our master tech says the replacment engine should just go straight in utilizing the ecu and bodycomputer from the popped engine

The VVC valve is a problem on them afaik?
my mate has one and well, it hasnt give him much grief, and although they respond well to breathing mods, decent upgrades are fairly scarse.
