The ECU is linked directly (probably) to the immobiliser which in turn is linked to the ignition key so you will need at least all those 3 things, you will then probably find you have a clutch switch fault as well as that is not wired in so you need to wire it in!

The clutch slave cylinder needs to be from a 99 model & not earlier as it an additional bracket to hold the clutch switch...

I think
