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.

Re: Reputable place to buy JDM 13b's?

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.

sorry, I forgot that I made this thread.

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

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

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.
