Re: remote control

Any Nissan or Tohatsu dealer. The cost of the controls and adapter kit would exceed the value of the engine.

Re: remote control

Elvin is correct. And you don't necessarily need to stay with a factory control, since you probably don't need key start. If the motor is already setup with the kit for RC, any generic throttle/shift control that uses Morse-type cables will work. Just be sure of the cable actuation direction (push vs pull), so you don't end up with a control that you move into "fwd" to get reverse. However, if the motor isn't already setup with the SRC kit, conversion will be more expensive than the value of the motor.
