Meg,
for gearbox and other toyota parts, keep an eye on Toymods.net Also you could keep looking at EBAY. Personally I am going to run a 4AGTE with a early model W55 Supra Gearbox. However this required me to buy a special bell housing to get the engine and gearbox to fit together. You can get bell housings for anything from 400-650 depending on make and quality. Have a look at the toymods site, they did a group buy not long ago.
But you could run a T50 or a W50, but you may end up breaking them. If you speak to a local import company they should be able to source a RWD bell housing and box from a AE86 Sprinter for you.
For other 4AG/ZE info you could have a look at twincam.org There are heaps of other sites out there.
Computer? If you can get a hold of a standard one you could run that. I have herd it will do the job. But for the money you will end up spending on your car you should just get a aftermarket ECU. I am going to run a microtech. Why? Cheap and they will do the job if tuned correctly. Some say that they are crap but that is their opinion. Ask your chosen workshop for their opinion.
Tail shaft? Get one made to suit.

Hope this helps
Nick

Re the brake booster.......

Most people tend to stick w/ the standard master cylinder without a brake booster.

Plenty of power & heaps of feel.

I'm running a CA18 w/ SR20 front brakes & R31 Skyline rears..... No problems!

So it has a commodore borgwarner (borgys come in many different cars)?

Where in OZ?

Fill in your location details so someone can help you track stuff down.

I dont know but the 5-stud datsun models, 260/280c etc. could be the same pattern as a commodore, use those struts if thats the case.

Hi Meg, I think the T50 celica box is a bolt on to the 4AGE, do you have a tailshaft and what box do have at the moment? The supra box is a W53 box i think. You need an adapter, try toymods.net.

And i have to feed the pump water via a pipe


I'm unsure what you mean by this? Does this reffer to the thinner pipe exiting from the top outlet?

My turbo doesn't make use of water cooling.

Computer not installed yet, but it's very easy according to the wiring diagram. Have a look at Dicktator. Not sure if they'll post to OZ/NZ though.

Where in the world are you BTW.? I'm sure other people are also wondering...

I'm using an aftermarket ECU so I won't need those sensors. However, I'm sure they have some function for enrichment when starting up in the cold.

Also pay attention to the PM about the little pipe between the top outlet and the thermostat housing, it could save you an engine...
