Talking New to Toyotas, looking at an AE86

Ok, whats up guys, names George, I come from a chevy family first 3 cars were chevy's so i decided its time for something different, bought a '89 Nissan 240SX hatch, ran it with the stock SOHC motor, just did a KA24DE DOHC swap like 2 months ago in my garage and i just sold my '90 coupe shell that i had no time for, so friend tells me he'll sell me a GT-S converted AE86 Coupe for $500 with a Kaaz 1.5way, roll cage, and possibly throw in some Cusco suspension pieces and i know its a steal but to get to my question is there any big things i should be aware of or worried about if i buy it, i'll definitely throw in a 4A-GE but what all will i need and where is a good, reliable place to find one, i would love to have a track car for the drift and AutoX events around here and keep my 240 a DD so of course i am interested in this car...THANKS!!! and how hard would it be to throw my KA-DE Nissan motor in there(custom driveshaft, mounts)? just wondering i know i've seen it done
