and i am going to get a stand alone engine management system just so that i can tune everything to the way that i want it and change it from the race tune to the regular (to save on gas and wear on the engine). i know that i am going to need to build up my bottom end but i dont exactly know what all i am going to need to do that so if anyone knows what all i am going to need or what i am missing please tell me

Forged pistons
Billet rods
New rings
New bearings (rod and main)
Seals
Gaskets
Oil pump
Water pump
Belts
Main studs (ARP)
Head studs (ARP)
The block needs to be honed or bored. If its bored, you need larger pistons.
is there a web page that i can go to and get all the things that i need to bo the bottom end build up or am i just going to need to search around and find it all myself?

guys ... whoa calm down.. let the guy no the basics first. if the 94 camry is the same as the 92, your gonna run into a lot more problems then that. sure the ct26 will fit. the exaust gaskets are the same. but unfortunaly, the massive engine mount in the front doenst clear the turbo. i had to make a custom engine mount for the upper side and use the celica front engine mount on the tranny making a hole in the suframe. also, your gonna need to cool the turbo with oil and water. so your gonna need that set of pipes that connect tothe water pump on the left front of the engine in order to od that. plus with taht you have to put an oil cooler which i used the cleica one and custom fit it to the camry block. once you managae all that your gonna need to cutsom make a fitting in the oil pan for the oil return becuase NO the celica oil pan does not fit on the camry becasuse the camry has a harmonic balancer under the crank. its not as easy as people say it is. its taken me over a month almost 2 now but i did the head swap off a celica also. its extremely complicated and becomes veyr expensive. iv yet to finish since my enigne fell once and the car is leaking oil. im still not sure weather the turbo is being well lubed cause it became red hot last time i dorve it. if your seriuosly interested, and you have the time and money, let me no and ill tell you everything and send you plenty of pics of what iv done. good luck!

Well you should be doing your own research, but I'll help you out.
Looks like you have a good start but there is a ton of info to research and one of the best places to research is www.mr2oc.com , its all mr2's and a few celicas but they have a whole sticky on building a 5sfte and if you just search 5sfte you will find a ton of info. Make sure you do something about timing!
the only thing is that i have the 1mz-fe. i am planning to build a turbo that is going to almost be like the sts systems but i need to make sure that it is going to hold all the power and i need, i have to make sure that everthing that i put on it is going to last a good ammount of time so it is all gong to get done right the 1st time

mcelligot sells a kit for the 3vz which will fit the 1mz without too much major modding but you will need to relocate ya bettery, and need a manual tranny.
even if you STS, youre return to intake pipe is going to be way too long without the extra space provided by a manual transmission (were talking an extra 5-6 feet of piping minimum here).
get a manual first, its A LOT cheaper, and youll go 30% quicker.

whoa whoa whoa....hold on.....he does??? since when?? ive nver heard anything about actually selling a kit from him....ever....fill me in
its pretty much just piping, and turbo.
youll need to source your own controllers/fuel system etc
mounts the turbo where ya battery used to be :P
similar to tonys pipe set up where teh rear bank loops up to the front back the branches off to the turbo on the side of the engine bay
but you need a manual.
