all VG30DE's will fit, that means all Z32 n/as and all J30's, but the injectors are different ont he 94 and up, you can swap over your injectors but you'll need to swap the lower intake manifolds at the same time

that being said, whats wrong with your engine? why not rebuild?

I think the CAS is also different on the later engine models Im not sure about the connectors though

I bought my car with a seized motor. Its got metal shavings up into the intake, Have not got any deeper than that. I'm not going to rebuild because of time and experience. holy crap used ones are expensive. I did find one on craigslist close that was in a fire. he says it comes with 5spd, good harness and most of the soft parts for 300. I'm going to try to get pic's before i even think about it. Can't find any used J30's with 2 hours of me. The cheapest i've found salvage is 750 to the door. Thanks for the help and any further advise appreciated.

Also whats CAS? Crank angle sensor?

VG's are cheap. Anyone who expects $500 for their NA motor is living a dream. Where do you live? I'll keep my ears open for you.

Yes, that's what CAS stands for.

All the way over in NW Arkansas. Were kind of a small metropolliton area and those motors are hard to find here and dallas is 5hrs away which is too far to drive to get one.

5hrs is nothing! I had a guy drive from Florida to get mine.
