I am doing the same conversion in my mk2 however i am doing brakes / suspension upgrades first. I think you can even use the 4m / 2m sump and pickup.
If space is tight you can use a remote oil filter setup.
Cooling system should be a point of attention, a bigger radiator may be needed.
Intercooler may be hard to fit if you are running A/C
W58 5speed gearbox can be used but custom mount may be required.
Good Luck

Cooling system *should* be ok, if the radiator is clean
You don't need a custom mount for the w58.

If you are using and after market ecu, then you wont need any airflo meter as they all use MAP
90% of the 5me stuff will be useless

No, they are wrong.
You actually own a Toyota Mark2.
Vote 1 "Mark" is most overused term (after JDM) on Japanese car forums.

Yeah i'll 3rd it! lol
I guess Toyota couldnt make up their mind when they called it a Celica Supra. Was it actually called that here in Aus? - or just a supra?
Sorry to drift off the subject...
Hope the conversion goes well

Sweet!
May i ask how much the 1/2 cut set u back + where you got it from? Not many places seem to have them instock at the moment. From what i gather, 'Rolin' may be the best place to get one from. Ive been quoted $2500 - $3200 so far (5spd)
