What car you are putting it in has a big impact. I've got photos of the W55 gearbox crossmember in my KE70 with 18RG, may be of use if you are putting it an *E7* or *E8* series Corolla.

Heaps of people. use a nite parts bell housing or similar, I've had one sitting around for abit never got a turbo sorted to use it.
what flywheel to use? what clutch?etc?

4agze flywheel and the 4agze clutch spline matches the w5*
what starter?

4age one, ring gear is the same size try use a rwd one keeps it tucked up away from the headers
is custom gearbox mounts needed?

Its car specific when trial fitting in ae85 we just had a random x-memeber that did the job couldnt tell you what it was from
do you need to change the hydrolic line for the clutch?

if it was already hydraulic then your fine. otherwise you need the usual dill holes for master cylinder, mod the pedal box and run some line its easy.
Also a ae85 auto driveshaft goes close to being the correct length when used with hilux rear and has the same yolk as W5*. Im sure others can give you some more info once you give the car details
