Reputable place to buy JDM 13b's?

I'm looking for a 13b swap, but I'm more interested in a front clip. I haven't been able to find much really with google. I want the place to be reputable where I know I can find a low-mileage motor in good condition obviously.

I have a feeling that if I were to order a JDM 13b swap from osakajdmmotors.com for $1600 that it would probably have enough miles on it to need a rebuild which is not cool. ugh.

Keep in mind I'm mostly looking for a front clip.

Thanks.

front clips are hella hard to find unless its a USDM FD front clip.

you should specify which 13B you are talking about, since there were many variations from 1984 to 2001.

13b-rew.

93+...

so you have an FD or...

sorry, I forgot that I made this thread. http://forums.offtopic.com/images/smilies/redface.gif

anyway, no I'm looking for a new car. I've come accross some fd's that are either rollers or have lots of engine problems, lots of miles, never been rebuilt and do not run, etc....

Figured if I could get a quality replacement motor, it would probably be better.....and I'd obviously need a whole motor if I were to buy a roller....

JDM engines are not quality engines

buy rebuilt from U.S. mazda, and get warranty.

bs jdm engines arnt quality, japan gets/got pretty much the best specd mazdas avaliable and the same goes for almost every company

he means that since they are used you can't guarantee the quality of the rotors/housings.

im sure its possible to find an importer with warrenty, better yet who cares, just rip it open when you get it, port + rebuild and your off :D

Try www.plan-b-co.com. I've haven't bought anything from them but they seem pretty legit. Also sorry for using yor thread but does anyone know if rotary xecret is trustworthy, their prices are really good.

yes rotary xecret is good. i bought my clutch from them (was about 320 or so for a ACT 6 puck). They'll even call you if the item will take longer to ship than normal.
