20V into a AE92

Im sure this topic has been raised a billion times --- and ive searched for and read through many posts, though im still after a few straight answers - Hopefully someoneone can help me!
The story so far...
I currently drive a Toyota Echo (see Member rides), and im thinkign about getting out of the 5K debt i have on it - money is a bit tight at the moment as i just moved out of home. My dreams of owning a AE92 20v have all of a sudden become a MUST HAVE after scoring a drive in one with a 20V. My frist car was a 81 KE55 Corolla Coupe with a 4age under the hood. I bought it complete and my mate wrote it off 3 months later when i let him drive it. I long once again to have a Better, faster 4age toymota!
My questions
Is there any reason why say a Seca would be better than a hatch or a sedan for the conversion?
Can a 20V be dropped in using the same engine mounts on All AE92 models? or is it best to buy a AE92 with a 4age already in it?
Am i right in thinking a budget of a bout 2K all up for engine, gearbox, computer woudl be enuf ? I and my mates have the skillz and facilities to complete the conversion - so labour costs wouldnt be added.
If i were to run an aftermarket ECU? Is there any preference? IE.. wolf, microtech, etc? Im thinking it would be easier to wire up than the factory 20V ECU - and at the same time give me a few extra kw when tuned.
----
I think thats about it for the moment.
At the moment its a dream that i want to make a reality, but i wanna make sure i know how much to budget and exactly what im in for so it'll be smooth sailing.
- Mike
