Question Where to buy a running engine?

Hey Rx7club I was wondering where I can pick up a decent s5 Turbo II engine and trans. Ive been looking at alot of those online jdm engine depots, but ive heard ALOT of horror stories. And ive searched around here in the FS section and theres not a complete running engine anywhere to be found

if anyone has heard of jdmracingmotors.com let me know if they are legit at all, or if you know of a good engine depot to get an engine at, it needs to have the complete wiring harness for it, A/c and powersteering dont matter to me.

thanks, Adam

You can use your existing S5 NA harness. Most engine swaps you buy will include the harness but it's for a J-Spec car and made for a right hand drive car.

I got my engine swap from J-Hot Imports, 0 problems and included lots of extras. Last time I checked they were out of them on their website. You can PM Japan2LA on here, as he's an importer and usually has a few swaps available.
