This is the one from Openloopmotorsports and its actually in better shape than expected. This is gonna be my spare setup and i will only be using the head off of this one. My other transmission and fully built block should be in by Friday. I cant wait to get that one started but i have a lot of parts to buy still for the turbo.

Looks in great condition Rob! If you need any help let me know. I just remembered I will have an extra B16A manifold around when I finish my swap. let me know if you want it.

The shipping was a bit rediculous i paid $1115 shipped but shipping was a lot more than expected. I was impressed because my friends JDM h22 was beat and had a massive oil leak but i had luck in the past with my JDM A20A from before. Not sure on ECU yet probably the B20A5 i was gonna use the Zdyne Gold but they only made one and had some issues so they wont do it again.

3g Jester, I will be waiting with a 9mm for you to come visit J/K but i do hope to never catch someone messing with my car cause that is my baby. Thanks guys cant wait to get my turbo block and other tranny so i can start building it.

Wow that is in very good shape!!! That would have made an excellent first engine if Mike's block wasn't already built. Have fun! BTW, where's the PS pump??

www.openloopmotorsports.com they had 2 more at their shop. These are the only people that i know that have them in the states. The shipping was a lot because they use Fex Ex freight but im very happy with the motor so i cant complain especially when it had a 5spd and they look real good.
