Greeting all! I need your help.

Hi All and greetings.

I’m new on here and I have many questions. But first off, let me start from the beginning.
10 years ago, I wanted to buy a sports car. It was either an FC3S or an S13, nothing else. And one day, after looking for the perfect baby, I found an FC3S 1988 in almost mint stock condition. The guy that owned it was 62 years old. And for the price he was asking, I bought it right away.
Since then I modified the car, year after year until last year when it was time to store it for the winter. I decided to completely overhaul it. I mean from A to Z…And I just finished 2 weeks ago. But now, the problem is….I’M BORED! I need a new project. And an S13 it will be. 10 years ago, I wanted either one, now I want both.

So what I need from you guys are pointers, what to look for and such. So let me describe you with what I want to do and then I’d would like you guys to give me your opinions. I know the 240SX, but not very well. I don’t know the trouble spots either. So any help will be welcome. So here are my Qs:

-I plan on going KA-T, no SR20 for me. And no more than 8 PSI. I estimate that with good supporting mods I should come around 250 rwhp. Right?
-Also, how much does it cost to rebuild a KA?
-Can the KA reliably support 8 PSI with SR20 injectors?
-Does the 300ZX brake swap wothr it cost wise?
-Are the SR20 injectors same impedance as the KA Harness/ECU?
-What trouble spots for rust should I be looking for when buying an S13?
-I think all Canadian S13 came with an LSD…right?
-Am I better off buying it in the US?
-Can the KA tranny support 250rwhp?
-Anything else I should worry about?

Thanks for the help all!

And here is a pics of my baby. I plan to do the same to my next acquisition.
