5MGE to 7MGTE swap question???

hey there everyone, i have a 83" MK2 celica supra which has the 5mge engine in it and well it has bery high kms on it and well i want to swap it with a better newer and more powerful engine in it...so i looked around and i want the 7M-GTE engine to go into it...i can get the engine and all the wires for $1,555 CAD, the ECU is included in that price so im good in that part...also i ask should i change the tranny with the more upgraded one, from a newer 89' supra turbo; with clutch???so onto the big question...the swap it self i can do ..im sure it might take some time but is there ANY actual modifications that are needed to be done to the swap that will be taking place, like anything that will set me back another couple of hundred dollars, to do the swap....thanks

EDIT: also the tranny i can get with clutch for $400 CAD...Supra Turbo Manual

Yes. The wiring harness requires modification. If you didn't want to do it yourself (and from what MKII owners tell me, this is not something most want to get into, simply because the mod is fairly cheap). There's a couple of guys that do them, and they are a couple of hundred. Celicasupra.com should have all the details

Tranny - you could use an R154...you need to open up the transmission tunnel to make it fit, but it is a fairly minor bit of sledge hammer work. If
