Hi, I plan on doing an SR swap into my 90 s13. I've saved up for awhile so here is my mod list for now and the future. I split it into what I'm getting done during swap (not done by me) and after the swap. If there is a better brand to use or any parts I'm missing/forgot to list please post them. Anything at all.ThanksBTW: I posted questions next to some parts I'm not sure about.Also what are the best spark plugs and fuel filter to use here?

Mods During swap:RedTop SR from heavythrottleGreddy Profec B SPEC II Boost ControllerGreddy V-SPL FMICHeavythrottle hotpipeHKS SSQV BOV (recirculated)Z32 MAFApexi N1 exhaustTestpipe3" downpipe (suggestions, Greddy or Blitz?)O2 housing/turbo extension (Greddy or Tomei)Apexi intakeWalbro 255lph fuel pumpAEM widebandApexi power FCKoyo radiatorElectric fansClutch (RPS or Exedy)Greddy pulleysRadiator hoses (?)Nismo thermostat (good?)Battery relocated to trunkBoost gaugeOil temp gaugeGreddy oil panGreddy oil block adapterSS turbo linesCometic head gasketNismo motor mountsPeak Performance tans. mounts

Mods after swap:Forced Performance Big 28 TurboMegan Racing manifoldNismo 555cc injectorsAPR head studsHKS 256 camsGreddy oil catch canApexi grounding kitGreddy Turbo TimerHKS actuator kitEngine damperNismo fuel pressure regulator Oil Cooler

And ya, haha. Bandwagon. Well its a good motor and that's why so many people use it. I don't want ka-t, researched it and don't want it. RB is expensive and CA I don't want to get into.Thanks

Any thoughts on the list, parts missing? Or any just not needed?

with those cams... and all that valve train work I would go with a bigger turbo and greddy intake mani.

I dont know what kind of power you are looking to get out of your car.

Yeah bigger turbo, oh and retainers for valve spring as well.

I would move RAS to the top.. get that done when you put your motor in.

You do not need a top feed fuel rail if thats what you are asking

BTW: opinions on clutch? Anything else I need, anything small like am I missing any lines something?
