If you live in Cincinnati, there's a local J-Spec distributor.

If I so desired, I could head up there with my dad's Pathfinder and pick one up.

You answered your own questions.

All J-Spec engines are turbo, and if you're converting a N/A to Turbo, it is NOT a drop in. You'll have to figure out how you're going to run the engine (stock, aftermarket EMS) and figure out how you're going to get that power to the ground. The N/A tranny will handle normal driving, but if you start fooling around at the dragstrip, than that thing will break.
