Do you need a Visa for 5 nights? Do you need the new style electronic passport?
Tried googling, but its just a standard checklist i've found, not just for New York.
Thanks

yes you need ESTA which is chargable but is valid for 2 years
Once you apply and accepted they give you a certificate number but you do not need any paperwork when going through border control as you have to complete a landing slip anyway
Depending on time of arrival and also number of flights be prepared for a long wait - sometimes up to 2 hrs

One of the questions on the Esta application 
Have you ever been or are you now involved in espionage or sabotage; or in terrorist activities; or genocide; or between 1933 and 1945 were you involved, in any way, in persecutions associated with Nazi Germany or its allies?
