Ok guys Jspec where to get question... and other ??'ns

Ok I called http://www.fc3s.org about a J-spec 13bt (91) and they said a $1000 which seemed reasonable.

Well heres the screwed up part... They DONT guarantee it will be complete. I mean **** i need it to be complete from oil pan to intercooler. I mean I could be minus an alternator or something like that, but if the SOB is missing the intake manifold, turbo or whatever. I might as well just throw a $1000 + shipping in the garbage. so my questions are :

1) Anywhere else you know that sells them cheap and will GUARANTEE the needed parts will be there

2) Anyone ever been screwed by these guys?

3) Anything else Im missing?

4) http://www.corksport.com are they OK?

Im so ready to do this, but when they said it may not be complete I was like '****'

Mike,
Dave told you that because they have no control over what motors are chosen. None of the companies do, unless they go out and pull one from their local junkyard.

Also, the motor that I ordered from nippon-motors.com a few months ago had everything attached; however, the oil cooloer lines were hacked in half, and the intercooler was crushed. Both of these are normal for Jspecs, because it's easier for them to chop the oil lines when removing the engines, and they're crushed because they stack them.
hope this helps. . .

Ok I can live with that, as long as the SOB has the turbo, manifold, injectors .. Stuff like that, im doing a 12A -> 13bt swap in a 1st gen chassis and I NEED all those parts, I already have a ton of things to acquire anyways... Thanks
