That sux sorry to hear. there are ALOT of Ka motors people are trying to sell but everyone and their brother are buying the Ka24De. You'll find one around. try using www.thepartstrader.com, www.ebay.com, The classfieds here and the classfieds on www.freshalloy.com. I just blew my b16a up in my crx and I had it sold! Now I gotta replace the motor and the guy agreed to have a b18a turbo insead of rebuilding the crx. I hope you get what your lookin for bro.

call up any place you know doing big swaps. thats where i got mine, a friend of mine works at a nissan specialty shop and had just done an SR swap and got to keep the KA so he let me have it when i blew mine....
they probably wont' let you have it but most people are too lazy to pick up the KA when they come get thier car if the place lets them keep it at all
