no hmotors, no care.

hmotors is the only place i'd ever consider for a swap.

ever ever ever.

but i never cut corners and only get the best, so that might not be for everyone.

but to answer your question, no ; )

I ordered a d15b from hmotorsonline. I would say that their customer service, shiipping, everything is fast and more than friendly. But my motor did always have a studdering problem with no CELs i had 4 different mechanics tear it apart to figure it out and nothing. but it recently got flooded out and the ins. totalled it out. But it did have 2 broken fuel injectors and a broken distributor clip and they had new ones within 2 days at my door no problem. Plus no one beats hmotors prices!!

Pretty much all JDM engines come like that regardless of who you buy from, it really doesn't matter seeing as how the harness is for a right hand drive car and can't be used anyway, what does bother me is that most importers cut the fuel injection feed hose in half, those would otherwise be perfectly reusable.

Thanks everyone I heard a lot of good things about H-Mo but I like the fact that got-jdm.com B18C comes with power steering pump and a/c condensor.
I want my car to have both because I live in a hot place in Cali a/c is a must here unless you want burn up. Power steering not so much but I never drove without it. I'm almost positive a lot of honda owners drive without it but that's not for me!

i don't believe you at all that steve ripped you off

i researched HMO for months before i got my swap last year (or whenever it was)

i didn't see one legitimate oomplaint about them that HMO, and if there was some sort of gray area issue, HMO rectified it 100%.
