If possible you should use the hubs and driveshafts from the car the engine came out of. When fitting the engine you need to wire it in using the 1.6 wiring loom and ECU - it will be a complete straight swap... (though if you are keeping the original gearbox off of the 1.4 you can keep the hubs and driveshats).
