i called them today and they gave me a price on my swap parts. EVERYTHING i need besides new honda belts and hoses, $2150. it comes with a LSD Y1 tranny, hasport mounts, SiR shift linkage, SiR front brakes, complete b16a SiR1, PR3 or Pwo ecu, stock motor mounts, engine harness, all sensors needed, and axles with half shaft.
good deal (i think)
has anyone bought a motor from them or ever heard of them?

 

i have heard of them but i dont know about there stuff. i am in the market to buy a B16 to drop in my ride too but i am so nervous about droppin that kinda cash on a motor and not being guaranteed anything. i dont know i have this terrible feeling that i am not gonna have some part or somethin and the whole swap will be fucked.

I bought my b16 from them. I have did not have any problems. It was in really good condition when I got it except for the fact that the pulleys cracked in shipping The sesnors were all intact and everyhting was really clean. Sounds like a pretty good deal to me.

 

how much did you pay for shipping?

 

id get a different tranny personally...

 

I think it was like 300 with insurance. Get the S1/J1 or the YS1 if you can. I got the S1 and the gears are tight.

Excuse my ignorance, but what about LSD...doesn't that just come w/ the Y1 tranny? How much of a difference will the S1/J1 make? What if you are going to use the car for your daily driver, and to drive 80+ mph on long trips every once and a while?

 

The LSD trans can be very difficult to find since they are so sought after. As for 80+ mph trips, there was a guy that averaged 33mpg while cruising at 80+mph on his trip. I think it was in another post that he said this.
