So if an FJ20 is rare, one built with the Nismo stroker kit and carbs is definitely damn near impossible to find.

From what I understand there are less than 15 FJ24 engines left in the world, most were stripped down and used for parts. I did find a FJ24 for sale in the U.K fully rebuilt it carried a $17,000 dollar price tag, that is without the 240RS.
There were over 10,000 FJ20et produced across the (U.K, Australia, and Japan). There is defenitely an FJ20et out there for me some where. I have an uncle that lives in the U.K I may just take a flight out there and look around at there local junk yards.
