Q1: yes. if by that you mean the T50 in the AE86.
Q2: yes. by no means cut the firewall at all. your smoking your boyfriends arsecrack if you do. you can buy dizzy re-mounting kits, or better yet run individual coils from a GZE instead of cutting the firewall. you will also need a programmable ECU if you like things like a speedo and working dash.
you will also need to do something about the water outlets at the back of the head. this has been covered many many many many many many many many many times before.
Q3: couple of options. get a bigger intank pump from a say a toyota avalon or walboro, bosch etc. or use a external pump like a bosch or VL commodore pump.
Q4: by this you mean exhaust manifold? if so then yes.. you can get a TRD copy manifold from kaizen garage for a good price that will fit.

there is a search button at the top if that helps.

DO NOT BUTCHER THE FIREWALL.

There is no need to. Butcher the distributor instead. Run like a sack of doorknobs on a standard ecu anyhow.

Once you fit a relatively low profile blanking cover on the crank angle sensor (dizzy), one of the heater hoses just touches it, and makes it a little difficult to fit the clamp. I think it is RS-Chita that sell a little ~5mm spacer to put between the gearbox rubber mount and the gearbox crossmember. This tilts the motor for a few mm clearance. I'm not sure if I will bother or not.

Must be a bit tighter on an ae86, I have enough room in an AE71.

[Sam-Q]

well I have a 3mm gap but I went to the trouble of doing up all my clamps and also putting cable ties from the heater hoses to the metal lines on the firewall all in advance.

you could pm me and offer me a price on a bolt in 20v conversion with microtec and individual coil packs and Kaizen garage rwd water cooling kit hehe

[Sam-Q]

does Kaizen still do rwd kits?
