#2bottom end is pretty much bullet proof, just get forgies and uprate the conrod bolts. don't think you really need to uprate the rods or crank unless running silly boost so apart from that it could be worth renewing bearings shells oil pump etc. look on one of the car parts sites such as gsf or eurocarparts for parts prices and best to phone around local garages for labour prices mate
