89 Celica 3sgte swap

Guys,
A question about an st165 89 Celica swap: how easy a conversion it to fit a 3sgte using the standard g/box and front end? Will the g/box be able to withstand the higher torque loads from the turbo engine? And likewise with the driveshafts? I want to avoid swapping the 4wd driveline as it will require heaps of custom fabrication work and hence cost. I'd rather try to use the standard driveline instead.
Is there a straight brake swap for this model? Upgrading the brakes to gt4 spec would be nice, but will the calipers and discs fit the standard front hubs and uprights?
And which model 3sgte should be employed? The newer the better I figure, but can the later model engines fit into the earlier model engine bay?
