Swap 86 NA ~ 89 Turbo

Here is a list of things I already have:

J-spec S5 13BT motor (including starter, alternator)
Wiring Harness
ECU
Downpipe
Turbo Tranny
Electric Fan

Is there anything else I need to do this swap? like rear end parts (driveshaft, etc) or fuel rail, injectors? any sensors? instrument cluster? gauges? radiator?

if anyone has done this particular swap before, I would really appreciate the info.
Thank you.

My RX-7 will live again!!

Well, considering you bought parts OUT of series (WHY DO PEOPLE DO THIS!?) You've officially made life quite a bit harder than it has to be. You'll have to hack off your dash harness plug and wire up a s5.

You're then going to have to finish the driveline off to be able to use that tranny/etc.
