i've heard one or 2 complaints. however, the high volume they deal in...you can't expect them to please eveyone all the time. i would assume, if they truly sucked, they wouldn't still be in business. i (personally) first heard of them like 3 yrs ago. which reminds me....stay away from K.Wantabe. ugh! i have heard a lot of bad things about them

Figure out a way to get to the west coast and I can get a DOHC ZC for $635 with tranny, mounts, and ECU.

oh yeah you think living on the east coast is bad. think about where i live, hawaii. shipping a motor from cali would be more expensive then the motor cost. i got it worst.

i ordered from hmotorsonline 2-1/2 weeks ago and am still waiting, but the guy called me back and said with the holidays and the bad weather in my area NY that it would be a little longer, so im pleased.

As for the NY living fellow, in Queens my friend just picked up a ZC for $400 Just engine, shipped from Full Throttle NYC.

I can get a ZC for $350 locally, and shipping cross country is about $220. That is without trans, and ECU though.

i am gonna get a crx with a b18a in it, that had been rolled down a hill, for $1100 so i get the engine tranny ecu plus everything i need to swap it into my hatch. plus a header, msdblaster coil with the cap, si gauge cluster, and even teh exhaust adaptor i need to hook the b18a header up to my hatch exhaust, i mean everything.
all that stuff for only $1100, i think thats pretty good

oh and yeah hawaii is good but i would need to find a distributor that would ship it over here. speaking of getting things from japan. i was talking to this friend of a friend and he was saying that he could get me a 5th gen civic from japan for $3000, thats 1500 for the car and 1500 for shipping, thats even cheaper than it would cost me over here plus it comes with a much better motor, hmmm
