So there are 3 main variants of the KA and it's VERY important that you're a bit more specific about what it is you're looking for exactly;

The Altima had a FWD variant of the KA24DE.
Nissan pickups had a variant of the KA24DE that was built in Mexico I believe.
240sx's, S13 and S14, had Japanese made KA24DEs.

Little background on the KA engine, the wiki has it pretty well summed up. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_KA_engine

They come up sometimes in a few facebook groups but I would almost never buy one sight unseen from an individual on the internet.

Or try a salvage yard. This site works pretty well, it's where I found my Z32 transmission.

They seem to be hard to come by these days. That's why I still have 2 old blown ones sitting around. No boneyards around me have them anymore. But like NukeKS14 said, car-part.com might have something as well as various groups. I used to be able to pick these engines up for like $50 back in the day.
