Good Place to get JDM 13BT
 
Hey guys, I am just wondering where is a good place to buy a JDM 13BT for my 89 FC project. Thanks.

i bought mine from sunrise motorsports and it looked good and came with almost everything and runs today. they are a little pricey but hey. i picked it up myself from canada, think it took me abbout 12 hours to get there from columbus ohio, id give them a look but maybe i was just lucky who knows. . .

I think Japan2LA just does 13b-RE's now.

myersprostatus 10-26-07 12:54 PM

japans domestic market would be a good place to get a jdm motor

FCFreakman 10-27-07 09:15 PM

they do not test their engines before shipping them.

I got my TII engine from them too runs good ...came with lots of goodies too... i also got a jdm klze for my mx3 3 years ago from them and its runs strong as ever 80k kms later

Contact info for Japan2LA?
I searched but only found threads talking about it, I couldnt find any info. Thanks

red_s5_fc3s 11-03-07 06:22 PM

japan2la is a forum member's screen name

AlexG13B 11-04-07 06:40 AM

so u guys just ran the jspec motors without rebuilding?

siguy2k 11-04-07 02:24 PM

Stay away from them. They are terrible to do buisness with. My motor was the wrong series and blown. They then wouldnt deal with it. Luckly i paid through paypal and got my money back and kept the motor. I know that vrracing has a thread about his that wouldnt even give him a puff out of the rear rotor i believe.

whats sunrise motorsports website

13bchris 11-04-07 10:18 PM

Utilize the "Search" feature at the top right of the page. If nothing comes up then just PM JDM12a about it.

13bchris 11-04-07 10:23 PM

I did a google search and got this:
http://www.sunrisemotorsports.com/

I don't think that is what you are looking for though, unless they don't post about JDM engine on their site.

Jager 11-04-07 11:39 PM

PM Dan Atkins.

He sold me one, nice price too.

13bchris 11-05-07 12:00 AM

Since were on this topic, has anyone got their COMPLETE S5 Turbo swap from got-jdm.com?

toplessFC3Sman 11-05-07 12:18 AM

if you dont particularly care if its JDM or USDM, kevin landers (rotary resurrection) sometimes collects sets of the parts needed to do TII swaps into NA's, maybe see if he has anything. He usually posts stuff like that up in the 2nd gen parts section

Do they account for the Japanese harness being different?

Do they give you a rear end?

I hope it's a front clip, at least to get you a few sensors, afm.

I doubt it's hardly complete.

:Asian:

13bchris 11-05-07 06:45 PM

Not on their site. They dont include the rear end at all so I should have specified that. My bad. I was intending on if anyone has ordered their [partial] swap from them and how reliable they are/were with their transaction.

RyosukeD 11-05-07 06:49 PM

What about Nippon? I heard they were pretty good.

They're alright, occasionally a little spendy though.
