i have the same thing, the engine will be pre 2000 and some/most of bodie and interior will be post 2000. so you will have the mark 1 engine.
hope this helps

Also noticed the cat is not on the manifold it's under car does this help identify which parts I need to buy

So is the mk1 engine in the facelift car a good setup or is the better engine the facelift one ?

hola check how many plugs you have on the ecu and that will solve it i think. sounds like its an early engine, my mk1 vtr has its cat under the car.
