Pretty easy.

I used a bigport engine, made some custom mounts using shortened datsun ones on the X-member and made some simple ones coming off the engine, cut off the datsun gearbox mounts then use the toyota gearbox x-member.
get a maddat hydro clutch kit
generic KE70/AE86 alloy radiator.
Wiring is pretty simple
get a tailshaft knocked up.
You can also run a AE86 center pretty easy.

Should be able to get the whole thing done for around 2k using good 2nd hand parts if you can do most of the fab work yourself.

Pretty cheap for a bullet proof twin cam injected proven engine, tough gearbox and a metric dickload of cheap, quality off the shelf parts.

keep your eye on the parts for sale section on ae86drivingclub.com , plenty of bargains and a good tech section on there.
