I have used car-part.com in the past. The website works great.

I bought a JDM '98 2.5 from these guys in Sacramento.  Maybe they have a 2.2 also.  The engine was in great shape and runs excellent.

Thank you

Called on one ej22 took the hour drive down there turned out to be an ej18. Drove an hour and a half north to look at another too questionable for the money. So still looking.
