I would not buy anything from tigerjapanese. I bought a s5 turbo motor from them and they sent me a s4. I called and he told me to send it back on so they could verify this. They also wanted me to pay return shipping even though it was there fault. I sent them pictures to prove that it was indeed a s4 and they still wouldnt do anything. I ended up filing a claim with paypal and got $1100 of $1400 back and got to keep the motor. I would not give them anysort of buisness at all. There are plenty of other places to get one. DONT DEAL WITH THOSE IDIOTS. Just my 2Cents

Do a search in the Canadian Section for tiger japanese and you'll get alot of useful info. They are not the type of company you want to deal with from a distance. It is hard enough dealing with them as a local.

Screw those chumps.

If you want ANY chance of not getting ripped off - you have to be face to face and be able to smack them with your dollars or they'll bend you over the counter and dink you through a hole in their pants.

Yeah they got me to on a FD engine that was blown when I got it. They they said they would sell it to me as a core and refund part of my money which never happened.

Stay way far away and dont buy form them so the go out of business.

Why would you order from them again? Because you rolled the dice and and received one of the few good motors they have? It doesnt matter to you that they have provided numerous junk motors to 'customers' over the years? I don't understand that logic.

xD nice rich xD
well if you notice one thing about ANY engine dealer anywhere, Rotary engines are NEVER covered by warrenty... id honestly say, there like a 70% chance the engine is blown coming from Japan, just the finicky nature of Rotary Engines.

well, they ripped me off on a piston engine, to the tune of $5000+ by the time I rebuilt it! And refused to do ANYTHING about it, even after I threatened to sue.

TIGER= ******* ********!
They sent me a "compression Tested" and "good running" motor. The Irons were so rusted through that u could barely tell where the notch for the coolent seal was. Rotor housings were toast and it came filled with some complimentary Dirty rain water. When i called them 10 times, I dealt with 10 different people and they pretty much acted like they didnt know what a rotary was.

Ur best bet is to deal locally or with a very trusted vendor. Ive heard only good stuff about Japan2La from a bunch of people. Good Luck
