best bet mate is buy a rear ended glanza or something. cheapest option and have everything to convert. i had a glanza breaker but with a fucked engine and crushed it before i started my conversion. wish i didnt and kept it until i started as there was loads a little bits that woulda been helpful, but you live and learn. reckon you could do a standard conversion for about 8-900 but all depends on engine. they can be very expensive if bought from online breakers etc. thats why a crashed glanza would probs be best. That way you can use glanza gearbo/hubs/brakes etc for no extra cost. but it is almost impossible not to go over budget as you will find other stuff you need. also while engines out you may aswell do tmiing belt, oil and water pump that kinda thing. and it will still be a converted n/a.. essentially a glanza underneath but you could change the body panels to look like one if you wished. sleeper look is more bad ass tho.

all interior and engine looms will be needed. ecu, wiper stalks, dials, engine, exhaust etc. from a glanza. you need to modify the bracket for the wiper stalks where iot attaches to the steering column as n/a is different. also you will need manual adjusters for the headlights as the n/a electric plugs dont fit in the loom. think thats it from memory, nut your best bet is do a search and read up as much as you can. relatively simple conversion. just make sure you have all the bits before you start or its a right pain in the arse! sam

£26/7 delivered. you can buy a water temp adapter for your pipe for like £9.00 delivered off the bay. id just try and drill/tap my own but like i said each to their own. surely these are available elsewhere as use for something else. a trader should get these made up would be quite cheap i bet and would look a lot tidier than cutting in a water temp adaptor.

isnt that part just a metal bung. maybe you could just drill and tap it or get a garage to do so. dont think it would be that hard. wish i found this before cutting up my silicone hoses to put an adaptor in which looks messy..
-
do it! keep on here and read up as much as you can. you will pick up pretty much everything you need to know about em thats what i done. plus will be a damnsight more fun than a lupo. my mate has a 100hp lupo tho with straight through exhaust stock suspension etc and i thought it was alright. nothing special but would give my old n/a a run for its money i thought. gt's can be picked up for silly money now tho. just do it bud you wont regret it.
