you won't find one at corksport. they don't get those in anymore. you can try adelaide jap dismantlers in australia. if you plan on doing any serious mods to this motor, it's not worth the headache of trying to find one. the gtx is cheaper, easier to find, and has the same potential.

The GTR basically has a bigger turbo, valves with sodium inside (which cool faster), and stronger rods and pistons. For the extra $1000 it cost I'm positive you can boost the GTX engine from 185hp to the GTR's 210hp. The GTX will be a hell of a lot easier to get, and won't be much different.<p>[ April 11, 2002: Message edited by: justin h ]
