OK, here is the deal...
After waiting 7 weeks for my front clip to come in from a vendor I do not want to name at this time, I found out it is not going to happen. Most of the "good" places have a 4-6 week wait. I need a motorset now. I am going the standalone ECU route so I don't even need a harness or ECU. I don't need stock IC or radiator cause I have already installed my Blitz FMIC and a 2 row aluminim radiator. Basically KA is pulled and everything is ready for the swap.
Where can I find a GOOD SR withOUT all the extras. I have found stock at A1-JDM engines and Osaka - Nippon says they will have one next week. These places are about $1500 plus shipping cause they have cut harness and sometimes no ECU.
Are any of these places any good? Any other places that I may be able to find an in-stock engine/transmission?
btw - I tried the big red button
thanks!
Help locating "in-stock" motorset

Sup man! You live in Stone Mnt. Gerogia right, correct me if im wrong. But back to the topic, did you try Unstable Hybrids in conyers GA. I dont know if they have them in stock but i thonk they might cause not to many peoiple by from them, TI think cause the do alot of RB motors, But give em a call. 770 860 0870. Let us know whats up with them.
http://www.noyanusa.com they come with a good reputation from my friend who bought a galant VR4 engine from them. I have been to their wharehouse and they have a pile of s13 redtops without wire harness, ecu, etc... Just engine and transmission for like $900 I believe. Plus for $150 my friend got his shipped from VA to upstate NY overnight, so shipping to Georgia should only be a day or two. A guy there named Mark is very helpful, if you give them a call.

http://jarcoinc.com/ is one company that i have heard good things from. i got my clip from Augusta Customs.. 2fastparts.com.. i know jay personally, but i have read of others having issues with his service so i am not to sure if i would recomend him. My clip was ok.. had a busted radiator and fan shroud but everything else was great and the motor runs like a dream.. but that was just my experience.. and plus i was able to just go down to his shop and inspected mines b4 i purchased it . but he usually has a clip or motorset in stock.

woops my fault man.. i thought someone had stated u was in GA. good luck on finding a good motor man.. a lot of ppl have been having a heck of time getting a reliable source.. i think today only i have read a couple of posts involving approx ~$15,000 invested in various companies that f%^ed the consumer.. it is really sad in my opinion.. good luck man.. wish i could help ya out betta.. if u do talk to jay at aug customs i will be more than happy to run down there and give the clip a look over.. possibly hear it run..
