I just did this upgrade. To make a complete turntable from the remains of the old, you will need feet, record clamp, and power cord. No real need to use clones of the feet, as the VPI feet were only $40. To use the JMW9 arm, you'll need the platform with cueing lever and arm rest ($???), and an arm wand ($400). You'll still have the old arm base and RCA connector box. Alternatively, you can use a Rega arm (or anything compatible with it) as a drop-in replacement.
$1100 for the upgrade kit is a great deal. You can get most of it back by selling the table, or create a second table for the cost of feet and part of the arm (or a replacement arm).
The big drawback is that if the upgrade kit or any of the replacement parts you want are not in stock, get ready to wait...
