Damn, those wheels are awesome. Not happening with my budget, but still full of awesomeness.

Also as far as expensive that's perspective, but hard to get I don't agree with. In fact I just saw recently that that parts are still so popular in Japan that HKS just re-did and rereleased a a few SR items. For example: Cams. I'd go RB25 though since it already have a rear drive trans. RB's sound sexy and are powerful. If you have more budget RB26 with RB25 trans would be awesome.
Yeah, I heard that the SR20 parts have to be ordered from Japan unless you find them used in the States. Bad thing about that is they're probably ruined or not up to snuff.

I just need to read up on all my options or limit them. I think I have too many choices and need to make up my mind.

I agree about the RB25 choice. I'd rather do that and not have to deal with the AWD issue.

RB25 is a good choice.

But I think some of the major Japanese brands like HKS, Greddy, Tomei ect stock in low quantites some SR parts. Their is demand for it since a lot people have swapped that engine into 240's here. Also there are places you can get new replacement parts. Here's a really good place:

Phase 2 Motortrend

If you go under OEM parts you can get stuff like the gasket overhaul kit ect. Same goes for RB stuff.

Ask if they do front clips too. That way you'll get a guage cluster (for that dash you are going to do) and some other stuff you may be able to use. I know you can get clips (car cut at the a-pillar) from Phase 2 but they are here in CA. I have no idea if some places more land locked carry those but it wouln't hurt to ask JDMhookup.com. Possibly they have someone strip a clip of all that stuff before shipping it and you get it all anyway.
