Vq35de ????

Does anyone know where i can find just the engine of a VQ35de ? instead of ebay, like sites that just sell only engines ??

thanks

EDIT* my idea is to take an R32 SEDAN/saloon and swap the RB20 and put a VQ35 in it .

its easier to replace an rb20 with an rb26 as it all matches up easier in terms of gearbox and engine mounts. also its not too difficult to get the wiring right

there's more info on www.skylinesaustralia.com as its a pretty common conversion here in australia

vq35 into an r32 would be a novel approach, and nice and torquey
