most reliable jdm products

[Blazedout06]

Wus Good People...

there is like a million people selling jdm motors and swaps and clips...

aside from ebay theres a lot of websites selling them too..

i want to know who are reliable..if u guys have experience and can shed some light on whom i should look into..

i thought flash options was pretty nice but some1 told me that they know people who bought stuff from flash options and were not satisfied..

anyways help me out..

im sure a lot of people can use this info.

www.hmotorsonline.com is the site that most people recommend.
www.passwordjdm.com Lots of people recommend this site. They have a ton of other JDM parts as well.
www.totaljdm.com Quite a few people have had good experiences with them.
www.inlinefour.com Personally recommended by a member named Ricochet. The also have mass amounts of different products too.

i would go with hmotorsonline.com as well. and hey, if u got the money buy a spoon engine...

[Blazedout06]

spoon engines run as much as a k20a...
but they are high compression engines...
some1 here told me they r not really made for draggin...but more for track use...as in laps

but i know spoon engines r the shyt...

they take a brand new block str8 from honda and rebuild it!

let me know guys..

[Blazedout06]

homotorsonline..price is high...
password jdm seems nice..
total jdm..i really like..no overcharge on shipping either...

inline4 is showing a 94 b18v1 gsr..w/230 hp????
wtf???? and engine and tranny only

and the spoon motors..they r saying for endurance racing...but 6400 for a b18c assembly...:-(

i wish i could really...

thanks again guys...

[CivicSpoon]

Hmmm...that strange about the GSR with 230hp. Maybe they're selling a built motor or something, or it's just a major error. But yeah Spoon engines are not made for drag racing and they are expensive as hell.

[Jdm_GUY]

what engines are you guys looking for.
Perhaps i can help.

[Blazedout06]

we are looking for reliable jdm sellers...
all types of engines..and parts...
there are so many people selling this stuff now it's not easy knwoing who knows their stuff and who has the best stuff...


i, myself..however, should have an obd II b18c1 in my whip very very very soon :-D


hey guys mine(96 civic DX ) is obd II right....
as far as i know it is...

[CivicSpoon]

yes it's obd II

[Blazedout06]

perfect...
so i think total jdm and jdm source are the best out of the sites i have seen...

so about 3000 give or take a couple hundred for shipping...

180 to the wheel..for obd II they said about 15-25k miles...

man i'll be sEt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CivicSpoon]

Naw man. You're not going to get 180hp at the wheels with just the motor swap, it's 180 at the crank.
And you still will need to buy the axles, shiftlinkage, and mounts/mount bracket. that's why the other sites are a little more expensive, because those things are included with their swaps.

[Blazedout06]

yeh some sites are giving it with shift linkage and axles..some not...the ones that are not..like jdm source..said about $150 for both combined

some sites are giving out hasport mounts and all that...

when i get the swap i'll make sure to get everything..pay whatever extra i'll need..
or i'll get the mounts separate..
but def. gonna get the shift linkage and the axles with the swap..

i probably won't do anything as expensive until i go for turbo...and that'll be a while..got a few months before the season starts anyway

Flash Options is from Malaysia and they take like 6 weeks to ship your motor. My brother's girlfriend made a purchase from them for a Sir II and they ended up just shipping her the SiR.
PasswordJDM is definately good, I've done business with them for about 2.5 years. They lost a good employee, but Leo is there and he's about the only one I think is reputable.
Inline4 is expensive off the wahzoo.
JDMtheory.com is owned by one guy so he'll always be the one talking to you, which makes you feel better because should you have problems, we know who to talk to. He's a little expensive, but can get many rare parts.

[Blazedout06]

yeh i like it better to if u can talk to one person so they knwo what's goin on...

but fcuk with my money and we gon see wus really good...

i personally liked total jdm and jdm source...
passwordjdm is ok also..

but we'll see..
