Default skyline lsx

Hi
Im thinking of an lm7/t56 swap in my skyline r33 this winter.

But Im not from the Usa so I need help to find some place that sale this and can ship worldwide. I took a fast look on ebay but it was most expensive long miles so any suggestions?

Will it be easier to use an lm7 with cable throttle then the One with electric throttle? Or maybe its easy to change from electric to manual throttle?

Plan on spending some money in either case.
But what I recommend would be finding a wrecked 01-02 Camaro or Trans am LS1 6-speed car and having it shipped to you. That way you'll have a lot of the little pieces and parts you'll need and you won't have to pay as much in shipping.
