Thanks for the replies guys.
The seller doesn't want to sell the whole thing because there are bits and pieces that I won't use that he reckons he can make money off instead. (For example I know the radiator won't fit, and of course he can sell panels, bumper, front spoiler, etc.) Plus I can keep the cost down if I only buy what I need (particularly if I can use the current p/s pump, a/c compressor and alternator) and it saves me having to flog stuff off later.
Adam - great idea about the short shifter, I'll definitely keep that in mind.
No I don't think the dash (or even gauge cluster) will fit, and even if it did I wouldn't want to go to all the bother of getting the old one out!
I asked RobST162 a while back about his ST202 gearbox and he assures me it went in with no dramas. He told me that you can use the 162 driveshafts, his slid right in with no probs at all. He never mentioned any hassles with the crossmember either.
I do know that this swap is possible, check this car below, it belongs to a member of the celicatech forums:

I have been in touch with him already and he has given me a couple of pointers about the swap. Needless to say I'll be picking his brain a fair bit!
