check out the advertisers forum... there is a company called import specialists or something like that, that sells jdm engines. They could probably hook you up.

i picked up mine from venus-auto.com back in 2006. they were real helpful. complete rb25det swap was $2800 shipped to my door, in Alaska. they even replaced my coilpacks and IAC a year after i got my motor for like $100 or something like that.

I hate you.

still runs. didnt drive it much that first year i swapped it but been DD'ing every summer. pretty strong motor. dyno'd 286whp on 14psi and 266 on 12psi. 90 oct gas. thats stock, with just the basics for a swap into s-chassis

Well I've always been a big fan of JHOT, never heard any complain about them and they've sold hundreds if not thousands of swaps by now. I've bought an RB from them before and it was in great shape.
