what year is your motor? what year distributer did you put on? The VX ECU will run the GSR motor(if this is what you have) but it be very rough as far as idle, and will also probably hesitate during acceleration due to the ignition maps. Sorry to hear about your loss. One last thing, are you throwing any codes?

I have a vx with a b16(similar to your situation) and I had to use the vx ecu to drive back and forth to work until I got the right ecu and it did ok, good enough to get around, never took it pass 6k rpm. I should start you car though.
