Are you looking for a GTE engine?? Cause if you're just looking for an NA 2J, there's ecology auto parts and they should be bound to have a GS300 there. The local one i goto seem to have at least 1 1GS

there's one in Rside and san bernardino: http://www.ecoparts.com/locations.htm

+1. I've gotten a few engines from Dennis from C&T Engine. They're legit.

VVti's are a little harder to find, but they're out there. We just had another 95 GS300 pop up at my local junkyard...almost looks good enough to drive away except the right rear. Engine+trannies there go for $250, u pull it...love it that way myself.
