Mate of mine had this done and didnt need engineers

Not a small job- All the wireing needs to be swapped out and the instrument cluster aswell so all the correct warning lights are there and working

Cheers

Approx cost? Doing it yourself/getting a business to do it?

Mate had a business do it for him and it cost him $4500 all up


Motor had done 15k since rebuild


I would recomend getting a wreck so you have both cars side by side and can see exactly where everything came from and needs to go
