Does this sound right? Sorry if this has already been discussed. I actually did alot of searching before this. . .

EDIT: Will SR20DET Cams work for this application? Can I even fit them in my engine?

EDIT: Updated Price list. . . maybe someone will find this useful. . .

A few things....

No sr20det cams will not work only JWT cams for the GA....

As for the Pistons not one company makes them..You will have to have them made custom...

The rear disc conversion is here www.jgycustoms.com its about $250-$300..

And for the money and power you might want to go bigger then a 240sx MAF....If you have anymore questions they can all be awnsered right here by searching..
