Im looking for all the needed materials to do the AWD conversion. I know that people will say that it can't be done but I really dont care what they say! So if anyone know's where i can get a rear axle, drive shaft, and rear suspension please let me know...I wanna start this project ASAP!

no... not that i know of... the skylines gtr drive system is not full time awd the system is set up so that on take off it is about 40 front - 60 rear... during normal driving the rear takes over completely until slipage occures (ie wet weather, or sliding) then the front engages to pull the car out of it... even if you set it up to awd to drift it, it still will be awd and if you think your gonna place in the top 14 in a D-1 driver search with a awd then im sorry to inform you that the odds of that are minimal... and if you take the front half shafts out for drifting then you still have the balance issues... if you REALLY want to drift the celica then your best bet is to convert it to rwd only... that means turning the engine to accomidate this... sry
