Jdm motor supply numbers?
Anyone know how many are left roughly? Eventually Hmotors and sites like them will run out of their low mileage Jdm motor swaps. Anyone know how long this will happen in? I can't believe they have thousands and thousands of motors left just waiting for buyers. Wondering if I should buy a couple gsr and itr swaps, and then sell for 2x the price in 5 years or so, factoring in the economy and inflation. Anyone know what's up with this?

Re: Jdm motor supply numbers?
and you also have to think about how many hondas are in american and canada alone.. just think about how many are in japan..
think of it this way.. look at how many "american" (i say "american" cause there gonna be all imports soon) cars there are in other countrys then look at how many are here
ford gm chrysler are all still making "crate" engines.. and so is honda they do make "crate" engines in a sense ware you can buy a brand new engine from honda with 0 miles on it but its gonna cost you

I don't see the point in keeping engines, unless your really planning to maintain it. Warm it up once a month make sure there isn't any rust corrosion or build ups. Also you have to take account for what Honda is developing next. The K series prices will eventually drop and become the next generation's B and H series, newer and better model engines will be developed.
