Thanks for the info guys...
My 1G has decided to pack it in and I'm weighing up some different engines. Would love to go the 3sgteu but I unfortunately need the car in a shorter time frame than this would allow.
The quickest fix would be by far to replace the 1G with another, but a 1J would be even better 
Cheers,
Kirk

My advice is to take the money you would spend on the 1J conversion and spend it on the 1G. (Or a 1UZ)
I am yet to see a 1J early celica that I thought was a good conversion, they just don't want to fit in there properly. Yes you can make them but not without kicking and screaming.

It's a legal conversion in Queensland... It's right on the limit though.
I've decided to replace my dead 1G with another one anyway. Found a half cut after much searching for 2k. Should do the trick nicely and this time round I gt all the goodies from it as we could only buy an engine and box last time
