cpuple guys up here have

I haven't personally ordered one yet, but one guy up here has ordered three and a NA guy just upgraded to a turbo when he ordered his. From what I gather, they come with everything. Hope this helps.

On the one I got it had everything including the engine harness (cut at the firewall) except air pump, and alternator.

Some Jspecs will come with a Tranny for not much more as well, but you have to ask. Don't know if CorkSport gets them, but if you need one I would again ask.

Corksport is rather expensive. I would try www.nipponmotors.com its where I got my Jspec from. I paid 750 for mine, plus 210 for shipping to my DOOR which is cheaper then corksports price. If you talk to the right person, theyll sell it for 650. Some people there are obviously mis informed. It says 650 on the site, but its supposed to be 750. My motor came with all accesories, a double alternator pulley, turbo, and intercooler. I dont think youll find one with a harness, if your going for a N/A to turbo swap. Youll have to reuse the old one, which is a bitch to put on. Hope this helps.

Jspec motors are all TURBO motors. It will not come with the HARNESS.Well it comes with the harness because they cut it but what's the use!...When i got mine (bad) it didnt come with alternator, AC, P/S and obviously the emmision things. It does come with TMIC. Be careful with where you get them. I got a blown one and they never accepted it back. Dont want that to happen to you. Make sure it comes with warranty. Atleast a month minimum.

PM me if you need some more answers. I can tell you more horrific stories about my experience with those motors.

Not true. I just bought a half cut (firewall forward + tranny - brakes and body panels) from Jap Performance, who has NA J-specs lited on their site.

what about the actual specs?
HP the jspec's put out, and stuff like that

and will the 13B TT engine fit in the 2nd gen engine bay? ie how much drilling will i need to do to to make it fit, welding etc, will it rub in places? will the tranny for it fit (gonna need a new transmission anyway) other thigns like that?

I don't know, but from what I have gathered from the forum, the engine mounts are mid-motor, or something funny on the brew. It's not a straight swap, you'd be better off modding a T2.

The twin turbos don't fit in the FC engine bay. You could install it with a single turbo, but then that would just be a 13bt. :p
