Question Where to get RB swap?

I have a 90 240sx fastback, and am wanting to do an RB swap, but am having trouble finding a swap from a ' LEGIT" place, if anyone can help, please let me know, a place in Canada called Osaka told me they have a RB25DET complete for $2,800 shipped, anyone know of them?
Also the FMIC, is there any actual kits out there?
I have heard bad things about flashoptions, and night7racing, so no need to recommend those places!

Flash options = bad
Night7=Good, to what I know. He just got his shipment and is doing his best to ship out all the clips that werent sent out before.
Venus=So so, Some people got horrible engines from them and some people got good engines.
Mckinney=Awesome, the best of the best. But can turn out to be pricey.
Xatracing=Has good clips, but more expensive then other places.
Racinghard=BAD, jst like flash options.

Ive heard of osaka, but dont they only sell motorsets??

And as for the FMIC...im not exactly sure on that. Im sure the RB25 pros will answer that

How much? I dont need a f clip, just a motor set, I found one for $2,500 + shipping w/ a 30day warranty, can you beat that?

Because I am planning on running a FMIC kit, and Koyo radiator right away, so no need for an entire clip, just motor/trans/ecu/uncut harness/MAS/igniter chip!

you will need a front clip for the motor and tranny crossmembers unless you are running a set of aftermarket mounts (which you should be, but just checking...)

Have you been living in a cave?

Cameron went out of business because he sold a ton of clips/motorsets that he didnt have & couldn't provide. There is actually a class action lawsuit against him for taking advantage of people.

This is the only website you will need regarding his business.
