Default NAGASAKI MOTORS....GOOD or BAD???

just a quick question, i've been seeing the NAGASAKI MOTORS ad on the banner here at HT, i was wondering if anyone has worked with them before and if they're reliable like HMO. i also noticed their prices were lower than HMO's but that just made me think they're not complete swaps...

I've had good experiences with http://www.hmotorsonline.com. That's who I would suggest whenever someone is asking about swaps...

To show you what I got when I ordered:

DO NOT BUY from Jazz, he is a scammer, bought two swaps from him a couple years ago off of ebay, took 4 months and the I never got some of the stuff I paid for and no return on my money. Oh and the motors were side by side on the pallet, the iacv bolt wore through the valve cover of the other motor.

Hmotors has best reputation everywhere, and it's obvious why also.

Dunno, but their banner ad features an Audi R8 w/a Honda "H" drawn on the hood, that could be a sign.

dont mean to thread jack...but when you buy a motor off of hmo, is it a complete swap? does it come with everything you need other than the mounts?

from the looks of it, i would definitely trust HMO

if the price quoted is a little higher, i believe the extra cash spent is worth it regarding peice of mind and knowing that you are getting quality stuff.

One of my buddy's got an h22 from HMO awhile back and in perfect condition and car runs STRONG.

My friends swap from HMO looked like **** compared to those. I think it fell over in the pallete because it was covered in oil and coolant.

When my friend bought his from HMO it wasn't in as mint looking condition as mine, the only differences were that the IM was a little dirtier, some important wires were cut, and the spark plug wires were'nt the right length for the application. HMO can't always help what they get, but, it runs strong and everything else was perfect
