I recently did a W58 swap myself, but I was swapping from a W55. I can tell you that you will need the bellhousing from the W55 to make the transmission the correct length. Also you will need the tail-housing / shifter assembly from the W55 as well. As for clutch setup, I'd suggest to go with the MKIV Supra N/A clutch setup. So you need the flywheel, flywheel bolts, clutch kit (disc and PP). I think the W55/W58 throwout levers are the same, but I just used my W55 one. Also you will need an 80mm pushrod for the slave cylinder.
If you haven't already, go and search on my.is as well.

i just did this swap to my 01 Auto and i use the w58 bell housing and simply cut and welded the fork that holds the shifter to make it sit center and i did a custom 1 piece drive shaft. i put it to gather on a 1,100 budget.
