Good luck putting your widefield rig together. I can get 2 minute subs consistently at 135mm with my EQ3-2, there are a few images I've taken with my rig here if you are interested.
If you're on a budget there are some great 2nd hand M42 lenses available.

Nice images, and very helpful to see what is possible with the 130EQ mount.
EQ3 mount not as bad as is claimed?

Some people have tried filling the EQ3 tripod with sand to make them more stable. There is also this thread on stripping down and tuning up the EQ3 which could be useful.
Yes, I also think unguided imaging at short-focal length is a good and relatively inexpensive route into imaging.
