Default Gimmie an engine!

Ooor sell it to me but I prefer it free. No seriously, anyone have a decent KA24DE sitting around under the shade tree in the backyard or anything that they wanna let go? Let me know what ya got. I need one ASAP and I've got some money so post 'em!

Mods: If you feel the need to move this, then by all means. Just figured it would get more responses and stay near the top longer here.

uhhhh, boost? I It jsut started burning shit loads of oil so i looked in the intake pipes near the turbo and they had oil in them. OK, i figure turbo is shit since it did have significant shaft play. Replace turbo with one with NO shaft play and was known to be good. Drove it and still burnt oil. Figured maybe oil is left over in intake pipes and burning off. two weeks later it just gets worse and now my car doesnt start. Fouled plugs probably, but havn't pulled them to look at them. I'm pretty sure the rings are shot but havn't done a comression test.

I don't want one that needs a rebuild, I wanna swap a decent one in my car and pull my shitter out to build while I work on blowing the other motor. Thanks though. Had I not blown this pos I would be all over an engine for 75 bones.

How bout you give me your car and i'll drop a VQ30 in it and make it a VQ30det. How does some conservative numbers of 300+ whp/wtq on 10psi sound?
God i would so love to do that swap. I just need someone to give me their 240.

OK, heres the deal w/ mine. I'm going to use the head off the extra '95. I'm keeping the '93 until I know for sure the 95 head is good-to-go. I have another DOHC S13 engine, just need to talk to the owner to see how many miles are on it (it's already pulled).
