Osaka JDM Motors!? legit?
 

I'm a strong beleiver in you get what you pay for but the other day i was looking for either a turbo motor or a mean nasty street ported na to drop in my s4. I came across this website OsakaJDMMotors.com and they have a 13bt for $750 plus shipping. this comes with everything...(tranny, ac, power steering, computer and complete turbo.) they dont list the miles though. I was wondering if anyones ever ordered an engine from here and if it is legit.

the website says its 1200 ..

i ordered a b16 from them some time ago. it was your normal JDM motor from overseas and the compression was decent. just be prepared to pay all the government shit from customs since they are based in canada... by then, it will be just as much as anyone else in the states.

they have a bad rep. Look in the good guy bad guy section.

my bad $1200 they raised it since i looked at it last. srry:Wconfused

WORST IMPORTER EVER. 2 of the 3 13b's I ordered from them were shot. 1 had no compression on 1 rotor, one had all the softseals shot.. They also sent the wrong engines (s5 when I asked for s4)

It appears that due to forum cleaning a bunch of the OSAKASUCKs threads have been irraticated..

any reliable places to buy an engine? Mazda trix looks good

osaka is hilarious. GARBAGE if you ask me.

I personally went down there a few years ago to pick up a motor they had ready for me, for fun I ask if I can check the compression and the guy says.

No man there perfect new new out of 30k car. Then i say okey so its quick .

Turns out I didnt even need to use a compression tester did the good old check .

and well after checing 8 motors there , I concluded they were all garbage. they did have a nice greddy tdo7 setup, but seemed only good thing on it was the turbo setup and for $ 3500 i think they were crazy ( motor also pooched ).


so all in all stay away from osaka !.

Tell you the truth almost any jdm motor, I would rebuild once you get it.

I ended up getting a pretty nice jspec block from another shop ( osaka was $ 750 and i payed $ 1200 for a shop around the block ( theres like 8 shops in the area ).

And still ended up rebuilding it for safety.

Yes from me but shipping will kill from Ca. NY

osaka=crap my 13brew had no comperssion on rear rotor big as hassle with them stuck with 2500.00 ancur now sel itl for 1100.00 ( its worth)

why don't you just get a rebuild?

If you really want a turbo setup, you can source the parts individually.

I could have sold you an GOOD REW for less than that delivered.. Sorry you got taken..
