I've got my sources. . . but I'm broke. My bro found one for $555 on clearance. . . at a well known website that I'm not saying which it is, because he wants his motor

but, why not turbo charge an n/a 12a like mine? if you get that jspec 12aT you either have to carb it or run stand alone. plus that **** be ooold and possibly sitting out in a japanese junk yard. rusted inside and all that mess. you never know. $550.00 buys you the major pieces to turbo your current 12a. you still gotta buy other **** like fuel pump, rrfpr, etc... but you would have to do that anyways.

the ONLY advantage of the jspec 12aT is the exhaust ports aren't so tiny. the low comp rotors deal is an arguement. i kinda like the high compression

As far as we can see, it's the cheapest he can get a motor right now. He's looking at a shell, but he needs a car that can RUN. A shell with no motor is worthless to him, and all my spares are crap
