This probably has been covered before but i have searched and tried a couple places with no luck. I havent really found these places that some speak of with 3-6 month warranty's and something on paper showing the compression info (which may be iffy but better then nothing)


So far ive tried

Nippon Motors- Called and they said they had 2 in and compression #'ers are usually around 70-80psi I dont know but that seems a little lower then what i'd like. I'll call tomorrow when they find out the comression.

Toysport- Only had a 20B

Japan Direct- only had a shortblock rebuilt for 1550. They dont think they'll be receiving very many S4/S5 engines anymore because its becoming more and more difficult to find usuable/sellable blocks.

FC3S.org-Spoke and met up with Dave, really helpful guys with some excellent products. Only thing keeping me from buying is they're a bit iffy on what accessories are included which is beyond their control.

So do you guys have any suggestions on where else I can try? Thanks in advance.

Sidenote- My 1200th post

 

try jabbasland he is a guy on the forum that can get you a pretty good deal. Tell him i sent ya to him .

 

Corksport has them for $1000
www.corksport.com

Prices seem to range $750 - $1000

 

Thanks for the tip RX7withNitrous, but its coming up that the username is invalid.


I forgot to mention corksport. Ive dealt with Ben and Derek before picking up other products from them and it was excellent service but I think purchasing a jspec with no warranty is too much of a risk for me at this point.

 

Spoke to one of the guys at swapjdm.com. Again, cool guys but they say its difficult to get a hold of a S4 block because of its age.........

The search continues..............

 

actually his name is jabbasbmfrx7 sorry about that

 

If your interested I have a S4 jspec motor I might be getting rid of, I was going to use it to do an N/A to TII conversion but my plans have changed. PM me if interested.

Any more suggestions?

 

http://www.ctintl.com - A guy in the Dallas RX-7 gang got a S5 motor from them and he is pleased. SingleturboRX7 on the forum.

 

2. No warranty is offered on Mazda rotary, diesel, high performance and racing engine. Racing engines are not street legal.


That statement makes it a little suspect

Call them...

 

Gave Jspecjdm.com a call but no answer.
I tried going to liberusa.com but didnt work. They did have a geocities site by that name but it was under construction.

But I think I found an engine.............


Thanks for all the help guys

 

Well, you may want to try jspecjdm.net again.. We picked up a 20B there for $2500. usually they have GREAT prices..

And shipping was only like $125...


I have seen S4 blocks go as cheap as ~$550 before. S5 vblocks usually go for ~$750.

Just got off the phone with them: New shipment arriving next week, S4 TII's are 650.00 + ~170 shipping CA to SC

As always:
RANT ON! JSPEC's ARE NOT MAGICALLY HIGH HP ENGINES, THEY ARE A GOOD BASE CORE FOR DOING A REBUILD.
