Theres a cheap Calibra come up for sale near me thats a stolen recovered car so has no keys.
I plan on swapping it into a Corsa bit want to get it running first obviously.
Im thinking new ECU, key chip and possibly reader around the ignition barrel too?
Its a 1995 C20XE manual.

My colleauges V6 1994 cali doesn't have an immobiliser at all - we've hotwired it before with no key 
But yet, if it has the big key (like a corsa), you'll need an ECU, key chip and reader around the ingition barrel.

The 1994 Calibra I bought had no factory immobiliser on it.
Aussie law requires immobilisers by law so it may have an aftermarket one on it which may cause issues.
If you need owt let me know

Im tempted to go get it and try hotwiring the bastard then.
Its only $350 for the full car so may be worth a stab!
