if they are both an X16XE engine, then no. They are the same. If its an early GSI it will be a C16XE and you will need a different loom and ECU.

Probably going to cost the same imho. May be the conversion more, plus the C16XE engine from the GSi is going to be older, so may have these problems also.

I have recently bought head gasket, inlet gasket, exhaust gasket, valve stem oil seals and rocker gaskets for under £50
You can get a head skimmed for £40 odd
Your a mad man
