-custom fuel system
-wire it up
-custom intercooler piping
-do to it proprely you should much around with the transmission tunnell....custom

You can get awy with not moddin the tunnel... just gotta move the engine forward...
That way you get to keep your heater too....
But there isn;t a great deal of room on front of the engine...gets pretty tight...

But yeah.. in short.. Everything Dave said...

My house mate wants to sell his if your after a nice easy way about gettin an SR ae86...

Tuff car.. Forged engine 300whp, s13 front with new coilovers. LSD hilux diff ect...

Think He want $12g for it.. witch is pretty cheap when you start to add up what it cost to built.
