It comes from the ms8, mx6, eunos 800 just to name a few. It only came in jdm cars. The one to get that installs the easiest is the one with the curved neck intake manifold. So when you are calling companies that import them, just ask them if they have the curved neck one available. All your need besides the engine is a klze ecu (kl31 or kl36 is the one you want). And i see you are in florida just check the phone book and im sure you will find jdm engine importers close to you. The best way to get an engine is to hand pick it, and dont cheap out on an engine cause you usually get what you pay for with these things.
