Default Chicago Import/export engine supplier??...forget the name

Hi guys..i've attempted to search, but no luck.

I remember going to an engine importing place in some suburb of chicago a few years ago. they have a small office, but a huge supply area where they have front clips, engine swaps..anything from hondas, nissans and toyotas..

i know i'm not being very descriptive, but if anyone can shoot some import/export shops names that'd help.

they're not really like an import shop like garage kwai or one6..

thanks in advance.

It's hard finding these hole-in-the-wall shops near Chicago on the web.
Can anyone give me addresses to those that are IN chicago, if any?

This is the address to Eric of Japan 3900 N Elston Ave Chicago, IL 60618-4228. And here is their phone # (773) 463-8108. I've heard many good things about them from friends, as well as some teachers at UTI. I haven't been there though since I'm a low baller & try to find the cheapest things possible. But check them out or giv em a call, and let me know what u think.
