They actually go to Japan themselves and hand pick the motors. For there front clips they actually drive the car first! I like them because I can actually go up there and pick out the motor I want from the selection that they have instead of just ordering one sight unseen! Plus they are right down the street from me so It took me all of 15 minutes to get the motor home (ovcoarse this is AFTER I found out that they have free delivery around the local area:mad. But its a VERY clean motor.


Maybe I need to visit my Aunts house in Raleigh... And stop by that shop & Tauriq's house over the Thanksgiving holiday...

Yeh.. PM me the price too...

****, you bitches are more then welcome! Im actually not sure how much they actually charge for there motors. There prices tend to be more exspensive then other spots. Im talking like $1400-1500 for an Sr20DET/VE. But they dont lift motors by Inj rails and other dumb stuff like that and they will swap out an oil pan and reseal the motor if the pan looks dented up or anything like that. The only reason I buy from them is because I get a better price cause I know the owner.

I could most likely get them for the $1300 hand picked and Deliverd by me to you MD/VA/DC guys if that interested you guys. I could check my cousins fine ass friends out in DC!! Or $1200 picked up from my house (since Id have to buy it myself). I know theyve got 1 other VE in stock right now for sure Thats clean. But i passed that motor up for mine because that motor had a lil build up on the side by the oil pump which told me that a seal was leaking somewhere. It may have been from the motor beside it on the pallet. But I dont take chances lol.

Funny thing is my Boy Emir saw my motor and wanted to buy it from me asap. I keep telling him its not for sale though

Nissan Crazy- your build sounds like a monster! Im so tempted to just take my VE head off and put it on my DET. But its getting colder now so all that works would have to be done in the cold and thats a nono!

Well it looks like I am tradding in the GT3076r in on a GT3582R a friend wants to turbo his wifes new s2000 and since he is the distributor I got it from he is going to most likley work me a trade , with the same GTvband housing in .82 it should go nicely with the 90mm big bore and VE head , I hope the spool is still decent though it should be after going to 2.2L , some day I will quite pouring money into it ....and get it running , the goal is before the spring to get it on the dyno and tunned , so I can atleast take it to NC. for school for the month I am there .....so hopefully 500whp on pump here I go , I am sure going to find the limit of its power capability

Mines backed into the garage again for surgery again... hopefully for the last time! Turbo comes probably mid this week and then one last turbo swap and water pump this weekend, then hopefully she will be on the road AND boosted finally.

Then its time to work on the 240
