I did my swap earlier this year.
Before dropping the 98 GSR (53k) in I changed out the following:
Timing belt
Water Pump
Valve cover gasket
oil pan gasket
Spark plug and wires
Distributor cap

Forgot about these 3 parts:



Where the hell do they go?

 

the ones on the right are cam seals.

Why wouldn't they be? I did the work myself and would of installed the new ones if I took the old ones out

 

Well, that's good at least.

 

The bag on the left looks to be valve stem seals...btw you're gonna need 15 more of those to do the job

valve cover seals. 4 holes which are in line with the spark plugs. i doubt those are valve stem seals. i mean those should be fine since the motor is a 98. good luck
