ha ha, just went to tiger's site, all the rotaries have "complete heads"
and then i got curious, so i went and looked at some of the other motors available, the 2jz gte from the supra came with a 5spd and was only good on 94 and up models, wtf, i just left at that point

Does anyone know a good place in the Toronto area to buy an FD?

Friend of mine bought one off them. Agree 100% with Joe; shady business. Sure they'll sell you a FD for 7000 but it wont be worth it. There are still dents and forklift marks from transport. If you are in Ontario it would be better to import to BC and then pay for the transport yourself. I used Hanson's Forwarding to ship my FD and other then a radiator being stolen (which was reimbursed more then full) there wasn't any problems.
Don't buy from these shady places, if you want to get an engine spend the money and go to a reputable shop like RX-7 specialties or RPM. May seem like a hard way to justify the extra $1000 but quality speaks for itself

ill be another one to say hell no to tigerjapanese...
they just seem to have absolutely no knowledge about the products they are selling.. all i remember is calling them a few times last year and laughing at them when i was in the market for a 1jz vvt-i because some things i saw on the website i thought were maybe an honest mistake..
i dont even want to go into it from there i think you get the point from other peoples' comments..but yea if you want a good laugh call them up and ask some technical questions

i call my friends in puerto rico and they have a very bad experince with those canada motors everybody say they get ****,the motors wont last longer if the motor run the moust 1 week, but recomendation if you purchases a motor from canada you better have extra money to rebuild

I'm glad people are taking the advise being given here and not buying from Tiger.

I bought a 20v 4age, from those pieces of **** and it had more sludge than any motor i had ever seen!! It had been sitting out in the rain for proboble years, The valves were stuck, it had broken throttle botties. Go to hell stupid f n tiger.
my buddie got a h22 from them for his prelude, super low compression on all 4 cylinders. i almost ordered a motor from them too, until i heard that....and now this thread! im staying far away now.
