And I went to their recommendation:

1100 for JAPENEESE JUNKYARD MOTORS!!!!!! BAHAHAHA

 

Damn...

 

so has anyone has good experience with jspec motors? looks like you're as good going jspec as you are going through hayes.

and it seems that rotaryresurrection.com is down or is it just me.

i'm in the market for a s4 motor to swap into my FB. any suggestions?

 

I'm sure there are alot of people who have had good experiences with them. One point that is not mentioned here is: All the JSPECS are at least 10 years old now. They are used engines, You don't think that there is a hard-core group of enthusiasts in JAPAN thaat don't need new motors? What about the guys from NZ and the Aussies?
There is not an unlimited pool of engines to pull from. These motors are not guarenteed or confirmed to be low milage. Very few importers even have them in STOCK. Go ahead, call around.

 

sorry guys if you think this is bogus.. but for a core you cant really beat 550.. and as for this site not having these motors anymore.. i actually spoke to a guy name rob or bob about these motors and they told me that they are able to order these engines...

but then again i would call them back but i dont have their number.. they called me .... aight this a fuckt up world.. just as u think its too good to be true.. in the end it truly is...

 

Ryan, I emailed a request for a motor and that was THEIR replay to me. THEY DONT HAVE ANY AND DON'T SEE ANY COMING IN.
Please post their number so I can call them. I would love a 550 CORE.

BUT THEY SAID THEY DON'T F$^&$ HAVE ANY!

 

Quick Informal Poll:
Nippon-Motors: 3 86-88 in stock 750
FC3S.org: NIS
Libero: NIS
Order UP Imports: Checking with Distributor
JTZENTERPRISE.Com: Not importing anymore
JDMCARS.Com: NIS, not expecting anymore

Of 6 importers/distributors contacted, only 3 "confirmed" 86-88 engines in stock. So maybe only 1 or 2 of them are good based on reported experiences here.

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!

 

isn't there someone who can do it for a thousand dollars, some guy in tennesee ? maybe i'm confused. peace

 

Yeah I blew my motor then bought all that ****. That would make sense. C'mon man get real. The J-Spec that I just blew had excellent compression on both rotors, and didnt burn a drop of antifreeze. Didnt flood, started right up ALL THE TIME and idled perfect, after adjusting a few things. The motor dying was all of my fault and had nothing to do with it being a J-spec used motor. I was watching the road instead of my boost guage. A $3000 rebuild would have popped under the same circumstances. Glad it wasnt a Pineapple motor.

 

"Hypntyz7 I was considering you about a week ago.If you offer a 1 year warranty on a 13bt and keep the cost around $1000 your gonna have people lined up at your shop. Ill be 1st in line. "

Ill be second..

 

I dont seriously think that will happen, it would be nice, but extremely un-profitable.

 

Yeah no **** guys, help me out here, a little anyway, I gotta eat ya know I can keep it under $1500 with a warranty, adn that's about it. IT'll still beat anything else out there.

 

Yeah, let Kevin build your engine for you, he's good enough to not need a warranty If I had the cash to send it out, I'd have him do my engine instead of me screwing it up so many times (tho I think I finally managed to get it right this time)

 

Now $1500 and a warranty is still better then the competition. Even with shipping. Which is what I was trying to say in the first place.... If you offered that, you may get some more buisness. I would consider having you mentally evaluated if you went $1000 and a warranty...

 

Remember, its NOT for me...All I am doing is the grunt work for someone elses car. This has NOTHING to do with what I want.

Plus my car runs, and quite well may I add.
