use the Nova mounts, Nova box and shafts, immobiliser might be an issue.

You just need the chip from inside the key and the bit that goes around the ignition barrel of the donor vehicle.

theres v belt and ribbed belt, v is one with teeth on it and the ribbed belt is a newer type and just has grooves

Ribbed belt is wider and will cause issues when cornering. Its close enough with the v belt let alone a ribbed belt.
