-Put a bottom end together with Eagle Rods and Forged pistons CP 7011's I believe
-Run a stock head for now (b16 or gsr) with maybe a good valve job
-New bearings (ACL or OEM b16a NOT LS's)
-New pumps and seals.
Don't go overboard on the engine, leave money for a good suspension setup (springs, shocks, bushings, traction bars, ect...)

kj, that is my plan actually. I talked with kris and he is really the one that got me set on what to do. he was saying the cp pistons and the eagle rods. I might even run a stock ls head, how bad would that be? I just know running the GSR or b16 will be much more expencive.
Also, I plan to do traction bars, axles, diff and all of that fun stuff. I think I am going to try to get it all done at one time. So you guys will have the car for a week probably getting all of this done.... O boy am i exited for the bill..

None of these due to their price and size. I would recommend any of the following. You can decide based on your budget.
* Precision SC3431RE (ball bearing)
* Precision SC3431E (non ball bearing)
* Garrett T3/T04E 57 trim .63 A/R turbine (non ball bearing)
* Precision SC3431RE (ball bearing)
* Precision SC3431E (non ball bearing)
* Garrett T3/T04E 57 trim .63 A/R turbine (non ball bearing)

Keith ran the Garrett on his OEM GSR on 8 PSI and made 285.8 WHP back in the day! This would be a good starting turbo for you. However, if you'd looking for more power, this might not cut it. It's also the cheapest out of the 3

well the turbo is the most important to me. Ill spend a few extra bucks if it is going to make a pretty big difference. 285 hp is fun, but I really wanna get 350, or higher if its possible.
