The only parts you really need to get from Japan are the starter, alternator, water pump, and headgasket. Most everything else can be found locally or adapted to fit.

search dude, theres a whole parts listing at the top of this forum.

iirc, to get the ka alternator to work, you have to switch pulleys. Do you need to reclock it as well?

I have a KA on my SR as well.

I wrote up a step by step guide a while back. You have to swap pulleys and also grind some of the lip behind where the pulley goes. Basically a lip on the casing near the bearing.

You also have to use some of the KA tensioner if I remember right..
