I've gathered alot of info on what I thought were good builds of the SR and thats how I came up with that set up just wantin to c what ya thought, and also if I needed anything else. Also are the Greddy intake manifolds pretty good, I've heard both sides, and if they are, r they worth the money

Well pretty much I would not rev a SR beyond 8200 rpm, IMHO. Even with rocker arm stoppers and stiffer valve springs the SR valve train tends to float at 8500 rpm. I know people who have blown up built engines on the dyno in that rev range. The Greddy intake is up to you. I can only speak of experience with it from a RB perspective since none of the SR's I ever ran had it. From a RB perspective its nice for the sake of cleaning up the engine bay esthetically. From a performance standpoint it does not do a lot for a RB flow wise. YOu definitely need to upgrade your clutch setup and for whoever recommended a Koyo radiator, they are crap IMHO! If your going to be trying to drift then you need to put in some kind of 2 way or welded diff. On top of that if your learning to drift I would say do not just throw a powerful engine in the car and go out and learn. Learn with a stock engine and learn your car again IMHO.
