So where is everyone getting their motors for swaps at in Texas? Is there a decent place anywhere in DFW by chance to pickup a blacktop? Or is everyone just having to ship everything?

Thanks,
Chris

pretty cool.

they've got a blacktop w/ harness, ecu and 6 speed fwd trans! you can turn that trans around for probably $200+ for anyone looking to drop it in their AW11, AE82 (hachi-ni) or AE92 (kyu-ni).

don't know of ANY usdm 4age's w/ a factory 6spd unless they got it FOB.

jdmenginescorp seems to have a decent selection of engines for toyotas and nissans.

i got mine from sun's auto with a dead cylinder... and the other bt they had also had a dead cylinder

shady company so don't go there

2 sources already w/ strikes.

lol, I know 4 other people who got bad motors from them... From what I've heard, they get all their stuff from junk yards in china, not japan... I dont think they even check the engines when they're picking them out...

Is it just me or is the BT they have $2k seem a little steep?

This confuses me, it says engine only, but comes with a 6 spd tranny?

2000 with free shipping isnt bad but only if it has everything like tranny wiring and ecu. altho iv seen them go for 1200 with about 300 shipping

i talked sun's down to 1300 for my clip ha ha ha... but they suck and i heard the same hing about their chinese motors

2000 isn't bad though

man i thought china didnt have junk yards. a friend of mine went to china, and all of the locals said there was no junk yards so i couldnt get anything.

People dont wreck cars in China? I find that hard to believe. I mean come on, you see the way they drive HERE. I cant imagine it over there. LOL ;P

i hadn't considered china as a source.

im sure they do wreck cars (especially for the amount of people that are there) but as i understand or what my friend was told is that they are not stored as parts cars and sold as parts. i think they where crushed and used as recycled metal. or at least where my friend was located
