u need a downpipe
walbro 255 fuel pump
new motomounts nismo ftw
ebay piping almost always has to be modified i recomend greddy mspec for $400 fits perfect
stock rad is a lil iffy u def need fans but u should just buy a mushimoto or koyo alluminum rad and a fan from advance will do fine
u dont need guages but i recomend boost and oil pressure
if u aint movin the battery to the back u need a lil odyssey battery
buy allllll your fluids gear oil,motor oil, etc

idk if i missed anythin but that should be fine
 
koyo ftw. i blew up my stocker on the highway...

ebay front mounts are ftw. i know like 12 billion ppl using them.

is it s13 sr20? i wouldnt be messing with that VTC garbage if i were you...
 
thanks JDM and choku
im geting a 94-96 SR cause bough the power fc first .the guy had it running on a 96 SR if not i would go for a redtop guys

you blew up ur radiator??? is ur headgasket fucked?

oh srry for thread jacking. anyways if u want a smooth install, get the engine, harness, stock ecu, new motor mounts and a downpipe. and put it in with everything stock and drive. :)
 
its a downpipe
300 hhp huh....lol....gt2871r right there

or a gt25 would be nice
 
"TURBONETICS T3/T4 TURBO" doesn't really tell u that much. what trim, what a/r, what stage wheel...
 
your best bet before getting into the swap and throwing down all this money is to do a lot more research and reading. The s-chassis and Sr20 has been around soo long most things have been done before and there are many recipe's for so-and-so wheel horsepower. it's always good to be fully informed and aware when getting into expensive projects like cars. Good luck, and she should be a blast to drive once u have her assembled.

My tip for dropping the Sr20 in is to have the motor mounts attached to the Motor, and not the sub-frame. First time i bolted the mounts to the sub-frame it took me 2-1/2hrs to get the first mount positioned and never got the 2nd till i remembered reading that it's easier to put the mount on the motor and line the mounts/motor up with the sub-frame. Afer i remembered that i bolted the mounts to the motor, and 15 minutes later the motor was in and bolted up. :slap: .
