There is a tutorial on this i think. You will need to get the Sport anti roll bars , bigger brakes, probably the 256x20mm Sport ones. Failing that, go for the Astra GTE front discs and calipers which are 256x24mm. Much improved braking power. You will need the engine, gearbox, loom, ECU and radiator. Also you have to remember that PAS was fitted as standard, and maybe ABS, but thats a pain in the ass.

And better suspension, the Sport's were lowered by 15mm over standard, but look at getting some nice coilovers.
