I got mine from a kid locally who decided to go H22. I found the deal on Parts Trader. I paid 3,500 and the motor had less than 10,000 on it (i verified that independently with the wreaking yard where he got it). It's been running great for a year and a half. If you buy from an individual NEVER NEVER NEVER do it sight unseen. Check the shit out first. I have heard horror stories of people being shipped crates full of rocks and shit like that. Never trust anyone where large sums of money are concerned.

I wonder how many of you who bought motors from SohFast have had your block numbers checked....that wad sucker sold me 4 stolen motors...hmmm maybe that is why the FBI calls him almost daily now. And expensive as #%*@ if you are buying anything but a full swap.

You know I have never used import auto salvage but I have visited their site and heard from people who have dealt with them and they look to be the most professional I have seen yet...and if they actually crate their motors for shipping the way they show on their site that is the most professional crate job I have seen from any motor shipper.

Go Motors http://www.japaneseusedengines.com
Got a great deal for a '94 JDM (yes, right hand drive) delSol VTEC front clip (the whole front half of the car). Since it was the whole clip, it included the 170HP B16A, half shafts, ECU, harness (backwards but useful), shift linkage, suspension, radiator, etc. Unfortunately, there is now half a stripped delSol sitting in my garage. He has a JDM Integra GSR front clip available now for $6K. Hurry while it lasts. |

A cople of other things that I would like to praise them for. Like I said, the ECU they sent me was OBD2. I needed OBD1. Larry Jr sent a GSR ECU to HASport for me and had it burned for my situation. The valve cover was also cracked somehow. He sent a new one 2nd day air. The last thing was the TB. I needed one that had a rotor for an auto tranny. My motor was from a 5 speed. He sent me a new TB with no problem at all. Great guy.

[/quote] No a long block is the whole motor from Throttle body to oil pan including all internals fromt the block and head. The onlything that should not come with a long block is the tranny, axles, mounts and ECU. [Modified by KawiGreenHYBRID, 5:46 PM 9/12/2001] |

Import auto is one of the best places to get VTEC motors. I have dealt with them several times and no probs. Props to Joe at HaSport as well.

I got my ZC from ARD Perfomance (not recommended), read on...
I paid top dollar ($1350.00 including shipping to FL) for a ZC, ZC 5 speed, and ecu. My credit card wuz charged the above amount, then a few days later I get an email from them stating "We just sent out our last ZC but we are getting another shipment of motors pretty soon. We will keep you informed." That wuz the last email I ever got from them (dispite the stack i've sent them) to this day. The motor (ect) did arrive, but it was loose and bouncing arround the truck. The straps were still intact which tells me the moron who ships them ...well... is a moron. The oil pan was CRUSHED and had to be replaced. There was also a good deal of damage to other parts (TPS, valve cover...ect) that had to be delt with. After installation it was found that the bearings in the ZC trany are shot... grind, grind, grind. This is supposed to be 30-40K miles or less equipment!?! This experience has been like what I would imagine prison sex to be... just a bad time.

I bought mine from Nippon. They are good. They offer a start warranty that's it. They don't gurantee that it will pass emissions or anything. They are pretty good. I've bought 3 engines from them

I work at a shop in GA and we have gotten numerous swaps from:
IMPORT AUTO SALVAGE They are THE best in my opinion. Larry Jr. actually builds racecars and does swaps all day long, so he knows PERSONALLY exactly what you'd need if doing a swap. Randy is also very excellent in the customer service area as well. I have personally bought a GS-R swap from him, and my fiancee's B16A2 came from Larry, as well as 4 of my closest friends' swaps. I have also bought seats, steering rack, etc. from him and everything is top-notch clean and reasonably priced. My ITR swap came from a local guy who totalled his car, but Larry Jr. also gets those too. I.A.S gets a lot of good USDM swaps, COMPLETE swaps with the following (long): Engine, tranny, mounts, ECU, wiring harness, shift linkage, exhaust manifold w/secondary pipng, CAT w/ 02 sensor(s), axles, intermediate shaft, SHIFTER and knob, box of misc. bolts and pins in case you lost some, and EVERY hole is capped off and NO hoses come cut! You can literally recieve a neatly-packed swap and buy NOTHING to complete the swap. EX: B16A into EG - everything is there, so you could literally buy this swap and DROP it in. No extra parts to buy at ALL. He also ships you a re-chipped ECU if you need to run an OBDII motor in an OBDI car, whatever! In addition to the most COMPLETE USDM swaps around, they also have JDM swaps and front clips, now too. 1-800-962-8922 Getting to speak directly to Larry Jr. can prove to be annoying, but he is busy and it's wirth the trouble. Randy is just as good to talk to also. I.A.S is THE shit! Rant over.
