sounds like a very good deal...
still needed
boost pipes, FMIC, bigger radiator+electric fans, reallocation of battery to boot, fuel pump, suspension, new filters, boost controller, modified accelerator cable
modified cluster/speed sensor
extra gauges for temp, oil pressure etc. or recalibration of existing cluster inputs

Boost pipes custom R2 000-R3 000
Cheap boost controller R350
Fuel pump R1 250 - R1 400
Electric fans R500 - R1 000 (2x fans)

easy extra R15k (small items will add up) unless you can get good second hand stuff.

this setup is ideal for someone who as done all the basics on a s13
buy now you should have done
walbro
fmic
boost pipes
just join up and go
bigger brakes and suspension, is dependant on what you plan on doing with the car
as far as im concerned, if you driving it everyday and occasional busrts
its fine
My car doensnt have any suspension or brake mods, but im fine
the point is that you get get up and running and still drive it and enjoy it safely, and do the brakes and suspension as you need
it doenst mean just beacuse you put in a bigger engine, you must upgrade
brakes,,,, the car stops, even from 240kph, on stadard brake fluid and cheap dics and pads
other that , if you wanna go stupid on the corners, remember, you are gonna go alot faster round them...so dont be stupid
i havent crashed yet, or been unable to stop andtrust me sometimes
im really pushed it, am im half has good driver as DriftZ

im sorry to say that i will only ever use the 2jz for as long as it is available
as far as im concern, it is the best engine to make big power on reliably
as well as the cheapest and easiest to get parts for,
you can order any part through toyota dealership locally
i paid R1650 for a brand new oil pump
the RB guys fork out over R3500 if they can even find one
Water pump is R700
as much as i love the Rb26.. if i had to choose again it would be the 2jz..always
Ive actually got 2 s13s exactly the same, but the one that im finishing will make 500hp , only diff is the injectors
The s13 diff and shafts are very strong,
the money from this sale is to pay the bill for the other
if the parts get sold , i will keep the body in storage for the next year and when finance permits and if i can find a chev ls2 really cheap,,, i miss my 540... love to own a v8sx
