Where to buy JDM Motors
I am ready to buy a motor for my 93 hatch. I'm looking for a D15B JDM version. I checked HMOTORS and he's sold out. Where else can I buy that is reputable like HMOTORS?

Not the reputation of HMO but if you need one in a hurry...

try to find a place local. Theres a place local by me that sells and it may not be as cheap but at least you get to see it before you buy.

Wait for hmotors, youll definately be happy with the engine you get once they get more in stock. I had to wait for my 2000 b20b and it was DEFINATELY worth it

Re: Where to buy JDM Motors
I've purchased two swaps from HMotorsOnline as well, and both turned out great. The best part is that they cary a lot of the accessories like JDM exhaust and suspension. That way you can buy it all at once to save time. Full SIR2 exhaust w/ cat fits perfectly and looks stock on a 92-95 hatch w/ b16 swap.

Ive read good things about Import Auto Salvage but have never personally dealt with them. I cant remember where it is located maybe someone else will chime in here. However I have bought 3 motors from HMO and they are great. As stated above deal with Steve.

Re: Where to buy JDM Motors
hmotorsonline FTW.. mine came with 28,000mi.I had to pre order mine and wait a month..... the motor came so damn clean you could eat off of it!! only issue i had was a bad coil about 4 months after i dropped it in. runs great! myself i would not go with tiger-j, heard to many horror stories bout that place. on another note my good friend ordered a h23 vtec from them and it runs great,but it had more miles than they said!

Re: Where to buy JDM Motors
How did you find out the excact miles?
I just bought a swap from hmotorsonline. My b18c was very clean. it was missing the crank pully but thas no big deal. I've bought 4 swaps 2 local 1 from password and 1 from hmotors. the hmotors was by far the best.
