Where did u buy your motor from?

Hey so where did u guys buy your motors from? and how did it go?
im looking at buying another j spec motor, the last one i bought from jspec auto.

They where very helpfull but because of the way the economy has gone there prices have gone way up so im looking around to see who else has good price's with good quality motors. Anyone bought a motor from tiger auto?

any thing good or bad about them?

Be aware that alot of those motors from JDM motor places end up being blown, it's really a gamble using one of them. That said, Japan2LA on here sells JDM motors and I've heard nothing but good about him.

Bought mine from corksport, 125psi on all 6 faces. Unfortunately, they stopped importing them.

If i was gonna buy an engine today.....it would be from japan2la (as needrx7 mentioned) or Atkins only. Your average bullshit honda importer is gonna sell you garbage, like Tiger, jdmengine depot, etc...

Tiger Auto has several threads on these forums - all bad.
