I am mulling over what I am going to do with the fuel system. I was going to keep the standard system...I may yet, but I was doubting wether it would be able to cope with the fuel demands of a 2.2.?

I was thinking about having a swirl pot made to fit in the rear inner wing, where the original aerial used to go. Then with an inline pump, running the fuel line inside the sill to the engine bay, this would be fed by the standard fuel tank and a walbro 255 pump.....or would the walbro be up to the job on its own?

Decided to stick with an in tank fuel pump only. This one should do the trick.

In 300 form I take it?
I'd fire a quick question just to check flow rate @ say 60psi just to make sure but the spec looks good

Yes I would go for the 300

60psi @ 13.5v = 225l/s
100psi @ 13.5v = 185l/s

Per hour I think? ;)

I've read about the JZA80 Supra TT pump as OEM upgrade as well, but don't know how they compare to this one. New parts ftw though, specially when it comes to moving parts.
