Micra rally build

Hi all, I've had a j1000 spec Micra for a couple of years, but as an apprentice mechanic the cost of stage rallying is a bit much so I've been thinking of road rallying and autotesting.the shell isn't the best so I'm going to strip it and scrap what's left:(
I currently drive a 2002 1.0 and I'm looking at changing the car so rather than get rid of the Micra I'm thinking of using this one and have an ongoing project over a couple of years until I can afford to stage rally again.however I'm starting to plan how I want it and the first thing I've come across is the nats system, the question is will it be best to remove the nats or will I be ok leaving it?
I'll try and update as and when I do some bits on the car but as I work 5.5 days a week I don't get much free time
Any advice is much appreciated
