jspec engines

Where can i buy a jspec engine for an 89 turboII? Also, would i run into any complications with fuel, becuase the japanese have 100+ octane?

I'm pretty sure they don't have 100 octane, maybe you're thinking in "ron"

besides the engines are the same. and you don't get the ecu anyways.

check out www.fc3s.org around $1000 I think.

Ok number 1 Next time do a search. but since you're a newbie it's cool.
#2 you could purchase one from either www.fc3s.org they have cheap prices. or you could also look at www.corksport.com
#3No you shouldn't have to worry about the fuel factor. You just have to stay concervative with the boost. 10 psi and under. Once you have done the appropriate fuel mods then, you could raise the bar a little bit.

i forgot the detail, but in like asia country, hong kong or japan
u go to gas station, and they really have like 100 + avaliabe.

but the rating is different, and i heard the highest grade is japan is probalby around 93 94 octane in the states

it would be funny otherwise, imagine a family sedan in japan is filling up racing high octane everyday
