Default What else is needed?

My motors at forged perf right now gettin built and it should be done before u know it. My question is, what else is needed to complete this once and for all. from aftermarket to OEM

HEre is what i got.

1. HKS HG
2. Colder plugs
3. UTEC
4. Brand new seals and gaskets

Now my motor only had 28k miles on it. Should i buy a new water pump as i heard that nissan water pumps go frequently and we all know how much of a ***** it is to change one of those on this car.

What else is needed, should i buy new chain guids or chains. Someone told me to do that but i wouldnt think its necessary with only 28k miles.

Also, whats the advantage of upgrading to a revup oil pump. Is that neccessary or is that for high HP applications. Ill be around 450whp when im done.

As of right now, i cant think of anything else. If you have any suggestions to anything else i need, feel free to yell.

Dude, I am not the sharpest cat in the world, but I am pretty sure he is joking.... Oil is a lubricant (protects the moving parts), and bypassing the engine would not protect anything.


Edit: Not to mention the other things they sell are "muffler bearings" and "porcipine seat covers." I think Jeremy was in a good mood today and felt like fu%&ing with a couple people. I also like the bar of boost and the cross drilled brake lines they sell....

If Sharif is doing the motor, just ask him. He's not going to sell you stuff that you don't need. He'll make sure you have the right parts. You don't necessarily want the opinions of every yahoo with a keyboard and a DSL connection.
