Odds of getting a good motor?
Im looking to get a 13BT swap. I heard that usually the motor is dead when it arrives and you need a reubild. So my question is what are the chances of getting a good healthy motor?

Well think about it ... There from japan, the main sport is drifting. So they get bagged on, on top of that they sit for a couple years. I'd say 90% chance of needing a rebuild?

funny how people will buy a whole running car and not think another thing of it when the engine dies in a few months or a year, but if they buy a used engine they assume it must have just been a bad engine?
I sold close to 25 JDM motors, most of them are still running to this day.
If your plan is to bolt on a larger turbo and run on a crappy home tune beating the **** out of the car then any used engine wont last very long.
