Default JDM Engine into UK Car

I may have a buyer for my JDM engine. The potential buyer has a UK car. I will be including the ECU in the deal.

My question is: Other than the immobiliser, is there anything else I can make the buyer aware of and help out to resolve?

Any help would be great

I'm not fussed about the UK engine into JDM car aspects

Will the 180kph speed limiter still work?

Just going off memory, the vtec solenoid. IIRC the UK engines have the vtec oil pressure switch, JDM ones don't. Easy to work around either way (as it UK ECU running JDM engine or the other way round).

A bit of time searching will show all the details.
