I might be able to get hold of a tigra for cheap, i was just wondering how easy or hard it is to put a c20xe and will any of my stuff from the corsa xe i used to have, fit into the tigra, like engine mounts and possible the coilovers and exhaust.
or would i need to buy new stuff?

but i already have all the parts to do a corsa xe, but just no corsa. then this tigra comes up, when i say cheap, i'm talkin a couple of pint cheap 
even if i needed new engine mount, coilovers it would be cheaper than that, and i get to have "fun" doing the conversion

mounts will fit but i think the engine will sit on a slight angle. and exhuast will fit but is a couple of inches too small so just wont stick out as much.

will the engine sitting on a slight angle matter?
So I'll just need new coilovers?
