ok so are all of the jspecs the same as the aspecs?? Also would a 13bre fit right into my 89??

The Jspec stuff is basically the same as the American stuff. The only differences in the motors is emmissions garbage. Any 2nd gen 13B motor will bolt into any 2nd gen. 13B REW's and Cosmo 13B's can be installed in a 2nd gen, but it's not a simple bolt-in affair. K2RD sells mounts that will allow you to bolt a Cosmo 13B right in. To do a 3rd gen motor you'll need to build a "cradle" at the back of the engine subframe. The same can be done with a Cosmo 13B or 20B.

WHEW, lots of questions. Do you mean that w/o custom mounts 13bre isnt bolt in? Is building rear cradle just another way to put in 13bre?

What would be the easiest way to put a 13bre into a second gen w/o having to custom fabricate anything?

TIA
