sr20det help!

I bought my friends 1991 nissan 240sx fastback for 800$ with a blown engine.
It has no rust and my plans for the car were pretty simple. I was going to buy a SR20DET for around 1500 (fairly priced?) off ebay and do an engine swap.

This car is my first car and i have no experience with installing engines etc, although i am a very technical, handy and diy kind of guy. I was also going to ask my neighbor who's an engineer to help me out at worst.

What I am wondering, is if i do an engine swap, what else would i need to change in the car? So far I know ill need a better fuel pump then the stock one and that ill need a new exhaust line but is there anything else? I was wondering if the clutch, etc would have to be changed(?)

If anyone knows some good websites where i can get good quality but affordable parts that i will need to change such as my fuel pump and exhaust if they could post it with there comments.

Any tips, suggestions etc would be greatly appreciated!
