The engines are the same for the 5 door and 3 door
Just depends on what the engines are i think, e.g. 1.0 12v to a 1.6 16v

Number of doors doesn't generally make a difference but the shells are slightly different anyway for some of the different engine types.
You just get the correct mounts for the shell/engine combination. Not sure from memory what you would need for yours.
