Grey market Japanese engines are not a good idea. You may never get it to run right and you may also have a hard time finding parts. Are there any trouble codes?

We scan it but o2 censor pop up so we change it to a new one but still no changes....I wish I knew this before I bought the engine in that case ill buy it from Aussie or somewhere else apart from Japan...

O2 sensor codes can be from other causes. Try doing an internet search for your trouble code.

If you buy another engine be sure and buy one that was sold in your country. Same year is best!
