If not diy then start calling builders for quotes.
Well it depends on your pipework, your drainage slope and the space you're going to put it.
You'll need to waterproof the gyprok prior to tiling — so that cost will depend on area of the room.
Other than that, you're best sourcing the tiles and fixtures yourself to save a little bit of money. Masters and Bunnings have some really decent value porcelain and ceramic tiles. You can also pick up a toilet — steer away from concealed cisterns, because they tend to be more costly to purchase and install.
You won't want to skimp on your tiler — because you want to make sure that they're all tabled, set and grouted right. Nobody likes drummy tiles. And they're very costly to remedy.
Cabinetry is up to you — but if you're looking to go thrity, I'd probably just recommend a small laminate countertop for your wall mounted sink.
Finally, you're best going to a few dollar shops, or the "thrifty" stores to see if you can pick up a mirror. You can get the mirror framed for a cheap, classy looking finish. Finding "custom fit" mirrors will be very expensive and frankly a pain in your butt.
Best of luck!
