hey, im in the same boat mate, i was thinking of doing the swap, and did a bit of homework, umm so far i found out that you have to basically install a fuel pump into your old tank, and that requires you to cut out a hole in your tank i think, which mite be a tad dangerous incase something sparks (even with the thing drained).
And then come the electrics im guessing a computer will have to be wired up, then the fuel injectors and a different air delivery/ filtering system.

Not a small job, but im sure its worth it!!!

Theres a few little things, but as Ralliart said, most will by plug in, and make sure you get all the wiring loom, EGO Sensor for the exhaust and a the airflow meter.. it shouldt be too hard, i had everything lined up off a Protron Satria, but the car got stolen before i could get it down to Bunbury..
