How reliable are the figures quoted for mileage on engines imported from Japan. I am looking at a 1993 RX7 with a blown engine. Will the engines from Japan require a new ECU?

Thanks.

Nobody would Ever lie about a used car...........wait.......hahhahhahahaa!..Roflmao!( sorry!)
I think the bigger question is: what IF the mileage is off and you are not satisfied..how would you Send it back????

 

From what I've seen and heard, mileage is typically less on cars from Asia/Japan than what we would expect to see here on a car the same age. BUT....their idea of "routine maintenance" is far different from ours.
And no, I can't think of a reason the ECU that came with the car shouldn't work in Canada.

 

So does that mean the Japanese maintain more or less than North Americans?

from the cars iv seen purchased through auctions...the mileage was pretty spot on when it got to the states

 

Since we are on the subject which sites/companies do you rotaryheads recomend/preffer buying a japanese engine?
