Congrats on making the right choice! 
Reliablilty should be top notch providing the engine is healthy already, and regular services will keep it that way. ive had mine about a year and a half and have had no mechanical problems, it goes and goes-the 4age engines are very reliable and hardy anyway.
in regards to servicing, the engine works just the same as any other 4a, so you wont need to go to a specialty shop, but someone who does more preformance repairs would be better than a kmart i would say.
most parts you would be able to get from jap wreckers or toyota wreckers as they would have other 4age/agze engines. Aparently alot of the parts you can get from the same era corolla, at a much cheaper price cos alot of the part numbers are the same, but im not sure exactly which ones are interchangable (sorry)
I think the 101 engine will always put out that little bit more power, since you have that bit more as a base. if you get the bigger puller you dont NEED to change the exhaust, but it mightbe a good idea, im not exactly sure since im still running the stock pulley. the air filter you can change in an hour or so anyway so you might as well do that.
AW11=awesome fun. handling is great and performance around the streets is awesome also-see the war stories section for some ppl with aw11's kicken arse on a few surprising cars! (the aw11 is a traffic light monster, you can kill almost any car up to about 100!) in regards to higher speeds, it feels fast and you can feel the boost in acceleration but other cars will be faster-the gze is set up for acceleration not top end, at these sorts of speeds is where the other car will fly up super quick from behind and much all over you 
get some pics up asap!
