Z18xe parts list

[totalnova]

In the next few moths when the shell is ready I'll be installing the z18xe small block into the nova, I was wondering if people can help me with the list of parts I will need please.
So far........
engine (obviously)
gear box f15 with cable speedo and cable clutch
ill be using nova drive shafts? Correct?
Now will I need the doner ecu and engine loom?
I know I'll need to use a cable throttle body

Have I missed anything? and thanks in advance. Nick.

If you need any bits, let me know, I have a mate very close to you who can help with Vauxhall parts.

Cheers, are we talking new parts or used?

Use a X18XE1,

Z18 ecu probably wont work when you replace the throttle body to cable operation, the ecu would need input from the fly by wire throttle which you wont be using.

You can use the drive by wire throttle body. You need the ecu, the immo ring and key chip, and the engine loom from the donor car. It helps also if you put the obd wire also, and you can check the engine with opcom.

I've already got a x18xe1 throttle I was hoping it would be ok to swap it over

How would you use fly by wire throttle body? Surely the pedal would need to be modified?

Sorry to be pain but could you explain what needs to be done I see you have made some modification to the throttle body.
