I bought my 7mgte from jazzproparts.com. $975.00 w/free shipping. Which i thought was real reasonable. I got complete motor with turbo bolted on, but with a cut harness.

Thanks suprawole89, how many miles did your engine have when you got it and how is running still.

I got mine from risingsunengines.com.I got a ge for 695 +150 for shipping across the country.
It had 40-60k miles it was only a short block.I had to use my maifold ect., but im very happy with my purchase, engine runs great, only 2500 miles on it or so and ive had it for a few months now, oh yea 180 day warranty was the best part "just encase".

my engine came with anywhere from 30,000 to 40,000 miles and looked very intact win it arrived. I think it came with a thirty day start-up warranty. As for how well it ran I don't know b/c i tore it down and took it to machine shop and had it machined and lapped for metal headgasket and ARP's. So now i have put about 2,000 miles on it and i'm running 10 psi. sooo sweet and worth every little red cent. In my opinion, its easier to just go ahead and have all your machine work done before you put the engine in so you don't have to worry about that pesky ass headgasket. Whatever you choose to do I wish you the best of luck!!!

mine was running strong until the day i pulled it. Tore it down to pieces to discover it had no oil squirters. But that isn't there fault at all.
Now i went back with the Usdm block since i'm rebuilding. Pretty much the only thing I'm using from the jdm motor is the head and crank..
