Default B18C5 Engine and Transmission in the Marketplace: Input Needed

Can anyone verify the authenticity and legitimacy of the engine in this sale? The OP is being evasive about providing the VIN and his thread s are going to get locked.

Built B18c5 Type r motor for sale *Chicago*

my bet is it stolen and he doesnt wanna post it, maybe pm him and see if he'll do that instead.

Seems fishy to me as well. There is NO reason NOT to post the VIN number up for all of us to see... I don't understand why else he'd hold that info from us.

Yes, he seemed to view my request as optional. His signature claims a PY ITR.

Sounds a little too good to be true... A complete USDM Type R swap, plus a full Endyn head with JUN IIIs, AIR intake manifold, and all the rest for $4000 OBO? Either its a scam or the deal of the year.

I think it is a pretty big leap just assuming everyone is guilty because they don't provide a VIN in the public forum.

The guy said he would be willing to provide vin to prospective buyer if desired. I've sold lots of things where I would edit the VIN because I didn't want some other scammer to have a clean vin to do god knows what

I asked for it via PM. Posting a watermarked picture is ideal. He claimed it was a B18C5, so they all have the VIN on the transmission.

I'm not sure but i think this guy sent me pics of his car with the air intake... If it is the same guy then i'll say he's legit. Gimme a few days to find the pics.

I have been sent a picture of the VIN plate on the transmission. The engine is a B18C5 with an ITR transmission. Block stamp 8300776.

I do like the policy of shoot first ask questions later... too much stolen R's. It's good to know that the seller is legit too. Glad that worked out.
