You shouldn't need to change brakes/suspension as the NA ones are the same as turbo ones (except for the ABS which was an option). NA Supras did come with TEMS.
You would pretty much buy a halfcut, unbolt all of your 7m-ge stuff and bolt all of the halfcut into your car. You may want to pull the 7m-gte out and change HG/check bearings/freshen up as they are all getting pretty old now.

good luck finding a 7m-gte thats not 200,000+km old, importers wont touch them now days anyway,
get a 2jz-gte front cut.

From your original post it looks like you haven't actually got a NA ma70 yet. If you want a turbo one, just buy one rather than doing a conversion. They're getting cheaper every day and would certainly be cheaper/easier than a conversion.

this is an old post. but no one really answered it well and the question wasnt really spercific either.
i have a 86 MA70 7MGE and am wondering i can buy a 7MGTE engine, loom and ecu and get away with a conversion. IE does the w58 bolt up to the 7MGTE

Yes, but you will need a much uprated clutch.
And you'll still need to sort out intercooler/piping and exhaust.
Tacho *may* need a booster.

ok, clutch is on its last legs anyway 
intercooler piping is a given, same with exhaust.
the ignition system is different on the 7MGTE from memory, they dont use a dizzy. Are the coil packs etc different between the two cars.

7MGE has a dizzy and one coil.
7MGTE has a CAS and 3 coils.
