looks fine to me, you are just seeing the reflection of the oil seal shield.

Wow that's a really good deal! Where'd you shop at? And is that s5 or s4? Could you post the shopping info because I might want to buy from them too!

motor looks s4, judging by the fan( 8 blade), and the tranny mount( offset). I also see chips, but its hard to tell if it is just a light leak.

it looks like the "chips" are from the background behind the blades, look at the line of the blade and just follow it...

chances are its going to take a hammer to get it off. when motors come over here from japan on the container they get shuffled around some and so on so those sometimes get stuck. but if you can just pull it off by all means do

i forgot to ask for that price was the motor guaranteed to turn over? is there a warranty on it? or is it sold as just a core? japanese wankles are kinda iffy if a warranty isnt offered. lets just say when an rx7 makes its way into a yard there is a good chance the motor is seized.

looking at the nissan motors they are about on par a bit high but not horrible. im curious to know if they do compression tests prior to bringing them over and warranty nfo.
