1)For the best mounts, you really want to fabricate your own, I have heard of people using 2 left hand 18r mounts or something but apparently it sits the engine higher.

2)The front sump is a better setup, but won't fit in the R series crossmember. Best just to look for a GA70 supra Gen3. This will be a mid sump and will fit in with some minor adjustments.

3) don't know of this one. It may be a problem with the t series cross member.

4)Rebuilds are expensive on any turbo and 1G's have 2 of them. You can pick up a set from the importers for about $400 or a complete second engine for $700. Figure double that price for a rebuild. Why bother rebuilding them.

5)Find a toyota dealer in Tassie that stocks import parts. Other than that my local one in Castle Hill has heaps of bits on the shelf for them. Get your Toyota dealer to order them in.

6)People complain a lot about the "added weight" and "moving the C of G forward" but when it all comes down to it, the weight doesn't make much of a difference. A 1G celica with well setup suspension will run rings around any celica with an average set up.
