I going to buy a b16a and was wounder if anyone had bought one from Hmotors, JHPusa.com. i tring to deside which one to go with but i need it quick beacuse i spun a rod bearing in my Y8 mini 2 day ago. instead of fixing it i'm just going to get a new motor.

thanks

 

Most everyone will say HMO.

I've dealt with JHPUSA way back when it was jdmhondaparts they were cool.

 

hmo has a little better warranty its just there site isn't all that impressive.

Google looks ugly too so does Honda tech but I think you see where i'm going with this.

 

I Paying close to 1800 for the swap, i'm just tring to cover my back side. and make sure what i buy will be a good quality swap.

I understand nothing wrong with triple checking before you spend the $$.

 

If you want good honest quality parts with a warrenty, and awesome customer service-quick delivery-hot run engines-etc.....


DONT USE ANY OTHER IMPORTER THAN HMOTORSONLINE.COM


seriously, ive ordered 4 engines from them and have been pleased every time.

 

did u have to replace the timing belt and water pump and thermostat for the warranty. or did u just drop it in and roll it

 

ya, i bought mine from hmo and every thing was great, they answer all ur questions and everything.......... go with hmo it might cost a little more but the quilty is great

 

HMO baby, the quality is there, and it's reasonably priced $1495 for complete changeover, and I paid like around $1700 shipped with LSD like 3/4 years ago. Go with HMO, my JDM b16 is still running strong, and no broken sensors/missing parts when recieved!!!

exactly. I mean since the engine hasn't been installed yet, mind as well change alot of parts as you can so you dont have to worry about it later on like


Head gasket ( I wish I had done this )

timing belt

water pump

tensioner

oil pan gasket

intake manifold gasket

TB gasket

etc

Yes, change all of the above, you will regrete it if your timing belt snaps, or your water pump gives out. Remember these engines have been sitting in a yard for up to a couple of years, yes they are good motors, but preventive maintence is your friend. Do it right the first time, and you will have fun days ahead.

for real. you'll be super sad if you expletive your motor because you didn't change out some basic parts. we love our hondas and we don't want anyone to not have fun with theirs.

 

I was too poor to do preventative maintainence. When I get my garage I am prolly going to replace the water pump. I was also going to do timing belt but when I took the cover off I discovered it was almost completely new. I did a full inspection and found it to be flawless, and a year later it still is.

Do the maintainence though. Better safe than sorry.

Their service is great too. My distributor had been damaged in shipping, and they got me a replacement no questions asked.

 

so it looks like hmo then. is there anything i should know before ordering it.

thanks for the help
