sr20det + ae86 info

im lookin around for a ae86 for a first car, cheap reliable & fun...
later on down the track ide like to do a sr20det conversion on it.. i know i get a newbie point for asking that question.. BUT im hard pressed trying to find any decent information about the conversion at all on the net, if anyone can offer some resources or anything to help- fire away!, as for now:
1) To install the sr i know you have to cut the firewall to make it fit... would this weaken the car's structural integrity ?
2) As for 'conversion kits', i havnt been able to find any info about these on the net, any websites, and what does the conv kit contain, just engine mounts .. ? ( ps how much would it cost too )
3) if i chose to fabricate my own engine mounts, what would be the best weld to use on it ARC/MIG/TIG ? I have access to ARC and MIG welders, as well as an whole array of cutting tools and the like, i suppose im asking what would be the strongest weld for the job, having a powerful sr rumbling under my bonnet.
4) when i put in the gearbox, ide have to cut up the driveshaft obviously to make it fit the thing is, would i have to replace the driveshaft itself to make way for more power ?
5) Would i really need to strip the car and spot weld it to toughen it up or is the chasis strong enough?
6) With the gauges, is there any conversion mechanisim so that the stock gauges can read info coming from a nissan engine ? or does that need replacing too ?
7) what is actully invoved in fitting a new set of disks & calipers to a ae86 from say a wrecked s15 ?
 Any other issues i should be aware of ?
Thanks in advance ( thumbs up! )
