U need things like intercooler, brakes, suspension, replace gaskets on the engine before u fit it, (Its a turbo, would u want to put an old turbo engine in without replacing major gaskets). Then u have the gearbox, FWD fitting kit, all the hoses and connections, possibly a new clutch (old engine again, bastard to replace) etc etc etc.....
It sounds so simple, yet when u come to it, the list of parts needed gets bigger and bigger and bigger the further you get on the conversion.

from what ive read about this conversion its wheelspin city!
sounds nice to say u have a 2L turbo corsa but id say u'd go through transmission parts and front tyres to beat the band
