Where to buy a S5 TII Engine?

Well, Im finally ready to buy a used engine for my 90 TII. Please help me find a good engine at a good price. Please list all the sites that sell used 13bt engines. I was going to get one from "Japan2la" but I think he is no longer on the rx7club. Thank you all for your help!!

1.)Ever tried the classifieds?

2.)Maybe search for JDM Mazda Motors in google.

Also, are you gonna rebuild the motor before putting it in?

3.) I can get you Japan2LA's phone number if you really needed it.

Im from Ontario, Canada so any local places to buy from wouldn't help you any....

BUT

just get a hold of a local scrap yard and go from there, most scrap yards now-a-days (as long as its not a backyard, now cars newer than 1976 kinda yard) should be tied into a nation wide database for parts searching...

Just ask them where you'd find a motor and they'll more than likely have several local motor importers that they'll direct you to.

Short of that try searching your local yellow pages for import motor specialsts....

try this,

http://www.rx7world.com

I don't know how good they are... but at least you can save some shipping.

I do have couples JDM importers in So Cal. Well, it's far from you.

Yes, I would like more feedback! I'm becoming highly interested in this deal that Osaka is giving...sounds to good to be true

btwCorksport sells jspec engines as well.
