Here's my list so faropen to suggestions and comments I know I'm missing some stuff

Engine- new gaskets (gasket kit from 88 pulsar?)- new alternator (already have)- new water pump (already have)- new oil pump (88 pulsar?)- new belts- ARP head studs- new rod bearings (do or leave alone)- new main bearings (do or leave alone)- Tomei HG- Tomei poncams- Tomei camgears- Timing belt- BOV- SR turbo elbow/ downpipe- S14 T28/ gt28r- SMIC w/ hole cut in front bumper (enough or should upgrade to (FMIC) (already have)- Nismo motor/transmission mounts- Electric fans- Walboro fuel pump- Jun flywheel- Clutch (recommendations?) ca18et clutch will be fine right?

I'm missing a crank pulley so does anyone have one laying around

"Engine gasket kit 10101-51E25 (CA18D) Engine rebuild gasket kits Engine gasket kit 10101-56E25 (CA18DET) Engine gasket kit 10101-50E25 (SR20DET) Engine gasket kit 10101-51E26 (SR20D) "

This info is brought from 240sx forums, great thread that has all the crossover info, and part numbers.. http://www.240sxforums.com/for...50644

Also, if you plan to go over stock boost(which judging by the t28.. id say yeah), ditch the side mount, they are pretty bad...

Clutch, i would go with sr clutch if your willing to spend the money for the flywheel. Stock sr clutch is an upgrade. KA clutch will also work, but its a pain in the *** to get the little pins to line up. Not sure about the caet clutch.

Sounds like a good setup.
