the prices are about average, it's the shipping that kills you.
the price for the eg6 front clip is ok, i payed $2600 and that was w/shipping from a local importer. oh, and i'm on the east coast, not the west where thing are alittle cheaper.

oh and who knows how many miles they have.

I have heard of people dealing with that site, I think they are actually located here in Toronto. From what I have been told they sell the low grade of engines and that's why it's so cheap. Apparently there are a few grades for the engines that are imported, don' know the specifics but I have been told it's based on kilometres.

iono, my dad was like O.O so he told me, and hten I was like O.O -- it says all mileage guaranteed 25-35k so I was like O.O x2

The prices of like the ITR's and GSR's seem totally bad ***, definately wroth a drive to Toronoto to save on some of the shipping


But it just doesnt' seem legit, I wish I could get my hands on a Type R swap for that kinda money, but it seems way too suspicious, what's why I'm lookin for somebody that's delt with 'em...

I smell Osaka. I'd never buy from them again. I got my Silvia clip from them after 3 months of waiting. I was lied to several times on delivery etc. Decent clip, **** poor customer service.

post if anybody actually orders anything off of that site... looks pretty unprofessional (many spelling errors, pictures not matching parts in some of the pics, etc.). seems a little shady. let us know how your experience went if anybody deals with these guys
