hi everybody. i just got my roller and purchasing the sr20det at the end of this month. i'm trying to get a decent plan set out so things can run as smoothly as possible since i won't be there when the swap is done. my aim is to get a couple litte upgrades done while the engine is out and to have it running smoothly before anything gets too crazy. i have a parts list and i'm looking for som guidance as to what i would or wouldn't need initially for the swap. I won't buy anything till I have the engine hehe. mods at install will be so far: timing belt, water pump, walbro 255 fuel pump, an ebay fmic kit w/ piping, battery relocation kit, boost gauge, z32 maf and some kind of 3in straight pipe and exhaust. opinions? thanks in advace guys.

SR's have timing chains not belts

You definitely need a Greddy Oil Pan and a Z32 Fuel Filter. If you switch to the Z32 MAF you'll need to tune your ECU for it, I'd stick with the stock SR MAF until you get things rolling.
