I have a S13 Fast back with SR20DET engine. And too all those who said I wouldn't be able to swap it I did.lol

Any way instead of going straight for "Looks" I will be doing performance. I have heard that I should first go with upgrading my fuel system.So What ill be spending all my money on this summer will be:

Fuel PumpFuel Injectors (550cc or should i go higher?)Fuel Pressure RegulatorAir Fuel Controller

Now I plan on also getting engine management. Since im only 16 and Do not have much cash, I think I will get the GReddy E-manage.

In the future I will be buying a GT2871R turbo for it.Now what I want to know is if I am going toward the right direction with this car or not. Also should I get Sizes bigger than the 550cc injectors? If so what size? And lastly can somebody please point in the way of fuel systems that will be well worth the cash. Please Remember I am only 6 and working at White Sox park as a waiter in the stadium club dose not pay much....well at least not enoughThank you

you should have upped the fuel pump when installing the motor.

Save your cash on the other stuff till you've got the 2871. You've got little need for upped injectors, upped fpr and an ecu tune. You've no need for those now and deal with the more important issue of the fuel pump.

you will see no power gains from upgraded injectors and probably not from an aftermarket fpr either..that is stuff you do when you upgrade the turbo..Fuel pump first and pick up a 300zx TT fuel filter from the local autoparts store..if you want power upgrades go for things such as FMIC or 3" exhaust..other than that I would just save up for a nice turbo upgrade
