Alright I'm planning on buying a 1991 Sentra. Its a manual and has about 200,000 on the stock engine. I'm going to pass inspection with the stock engine then swap a Bluebird U13 into it. I'm making a parts list based off of other builds and posts and I was wondering if I have everything I need.

-Nissan SR20DET JDM Engine Swap Blue Bird U13 TURBO ----Comes with---- -Complete Block -Complete Head -Intake Manifold -T25 Turbocharger -Complete Engine Wiring Harness -Sensors -Cam Angle Sensor -Turbo Manifold -Fuel Rail -Injectors -Throttle Body -Alternator -Starter -Coil Pack -Large Intercooler (Top Mount) -5spd Transmission -ECUhttp://got-jdm.com/JDM/nissan-....html This is where I'm buying the engine from.

I also read that I will need -Place Racing SE-R Motor Mounts -Passenger Side Motor-Mount Bracket -Rear Motor Mount BRACKET -Front Motor Mount BRACKET -SE-R Clutch Cable BRACKET -SR20DE Harness -Clutch -Walbro Fuel Pump -NGK Irridium -SE-R Maf -3" Down Pipe -U12 SR20DET Plastic Intake Tube (Is there a better intake system?) -Modine Radiator -Turbo Boost Gauge -Header -Catback Exhaust -Air/Fuel Ratio Gauge

I read that the top mount intercooler isn't the best so I should switch it, any suggestions?

So is this a decent parts list for a daily driver. Is there anything else that I will need?

Also if you have any good websites where you bought your parts from that are realiable then please share. Thanks.

AFR gauge is useless unless it's a wideband, which would be overkill to use all the time. Oil press, oil temp, and EGT are more useful.

I'd try to put together an inlet pipe. Just needs a few bungs on it for the crankcase breather (which preferably has a catchcan on it) and the recirc line. Definitely a better setup than the plastic tube.

I'd go for a JWT-tuned SE-R ECU or a Calum daughterboard setup instead of the stock U13 ECU.

Alright thanks. Is the site that has the engine on it look legit? It says that the U13 has a top mount intercooler but I thought that U13's had front mounts.

U13 has a TMIC.

$2k is a rip for that. It ought to be in the 1k-1500 range. Do some searching on this site. We generally recommend Soko, but there are a few other fairly reliable engine suppliers around.
