   right well youll need custom mounts
   custom driveshafts
   the motor and box
   the loom adapting
   gustom gear linkages
   thats prolly missing a few things aswell
   
   tbh ts not worth the hassle for what youll get at the end

   if you have thousands of pounds.. stick a vtr / vts FROM A SAXO and buy a 1.8 stroker kit and everythin else needed for it, more power than front heavvy shitpile engine that will handle like crap and be blown by a stock vts saxo because it ould be lighter..

   for your money mate you would be far better butting a cammed or throttle bodied vts lump in there and getting it set up properly imo
