If you're worried about this then by all means avoid "osucka" PERIOD. BTW there's thousands of threads about how horrible osucka is in the archive search section.
same goes to flashoptions

Import Auto Salvage has the cleanest and best running swaps I've ever seen, however they are quite pricey. I'm an hmotorsonline customer myself and am not likely to switch.

Havent had any direct dealings with them but I know when I was in teh market for a nissan swap, flashoptions was raping people. Not only were the incompetent enough to SLACK on shipping, alo tof times people got totally different things than they ordered and flashoptions found it necessary too throw in dirty JDM floormats to cover it. I personally wouldnt buy a swap/long block from ANYONE not int eh continental US. There are several legit businesses here....saving a few bucks isnt worth the hassle.

Re: OSAKA MOTORS? OPINIONS? (Smith Wise)
japanstarmotors is good. They are also nagano. They sent me a D15B and it was seized and when I called them and explained I was shipped a whole new one in a few days so I consider that a positive experiance since they stood behind their product and when buying used motors you can't always blame them.

Pretty sure they had relations which is good enough for me not to order from there.

no kidding! You can even search anywhere else on the internet ( Thanks Mike M for the tip ) You will find a massive amount of threads on other boards with people totally disgusted with the way osucka does business and the quality of their motors once they arrive at their doorstep. The only thing i ever got from osucka was some seats but now I'm thinking that I'd BETTER NOT HAVE SOME STOLEN **** IN MY RIDE......if I do....I'm personally going to go up there and KICK THEIR ASSES ONE BY ONE!!!!!!!!!!
though on a side note....I've only seen maybe one to three threads elsewhere ( dealing with nissan stuff and some toyota stuff ) people were actually happy......but still....
