I have heard that it can be a pain because all the electric the C's run through the ECU. To do a conversion like this i believe you need to run 2 ECU's
EDIT: one ECU for all the electronics (lights, mirrors, eectric windows etc) and one for the engine itself

^^ agreed - probably best sticking with a the newer 1.4 engine rather than messing around with the older less reliable 2.0 and ruining your car
also take into account all the niggly little problems that people have with such transplants into a corsa b (even tho they have a more suitable wiring loom/setup). Have a search for something like c20xe problems or something along these lines
