Where is the best place to buy j spec motors... found a place in ca selling series 5 turbo motors for $750 a piece $900 with tranny... but no warrenty... I dont want to put a motor in and find out it has a bad o-ring a poped seal or??? And there still waiting for there container to come in... every time I call them they say its going to be a little longer out...

 

Your best bet is to get it and rebuild it

 

urinator - can you turn me on to this JDM source. Thats a better price than i have been able to scratch up.

 

normally importers won't sell you an egine w/ bad compression

 

Just curious as to why you said that but what would stop them if they didnt offer a warranty?

 

since you are in washington, there is an engine importer called japanese engines inc. on Hwy 99 a few miles south of the seatac airport... i you go down there they usually give pretty good deals.

their website isn't much help, but they do have a number you can call them at.

 

Well.... I've never heard of them... I doubt they pay much for advertising... I'm sure they want to stay in business...

Word of mouth is the best advertising there is, if enough people got crap engines from them, they wouldn't be in business. That is what there is to stop them.

Shipping people paperweights that need to be rebuilt isn't a good business practace. And business with bad practaces don't stay in business long... even though demonspeed.com seems to still be up and running...
