The brackets will fit, all the same bar the saloon. One thing i cant remember is the bore size of the 1lt, all are the same but i have a feeling the 1lt is uber small and thus wont fit.

sadley on all other novas i would say get the whole system, but with the 1lt the exhaust manifold is on the back of the engine and hence the system is different. With all other novas you can use the manifold and system off any other one (as long as you use the manifold and system from the same car.)

Well you could cut an weld one on, but if your talking magic pipes then you really need to speak to the king of the pixies. They do some seriously amazing pipes.

It should go straight on fine, no arsing with brackets etc.
1L has same bore as all other novas, so a 1400/1600 backbox will fit a 1L.
