Finally 3 months after i sold my black 95 gsr .. i got my basic stock 94 civic hatch cx (vision corners,h&r springs , skunk 2 exaust, thats it)and have been working two jobs so i can buy my itr motor.so i called passwordjdm and talked to steve and sent him %50 percent of a 97 jdm itr complete swap.when the motor gets to his shop(estimated 3-4 weeks) he will call me and i will sent the other$2200.im so excited i cant stop think bout it,its driving me crazy.anyways i was wondering how you guys pay for your motors.. i just got a cashiers check and sent it off for the first $2000ii got the receipt also.. is that how you guys wouldve paid , couldnt he just take my money and rip me off(which i HIGHLY DOUBT he would, steve seems like a hella cool guy)i was just wondering how you guys paid for your motors.thanks,Randy

 

first off..
wrong forum...should be in genral discussion because this is for tech only
second...
passwordjdm is
third...
i had my money wired straight from my bank to his bank (secure, safe, and you got records)

 

Bling bling cash money
i hate credit cards...my way of looking at things is like this...if i cant buy it cash then i cant afford it.(except a house or something that expesive)
oh yeah and have fun with your motor when you get it

I bought my motor in person with a cashiers check, made out for $7100, I got some other stuff too.

 

I havent bought a motor just yet but here are the options I prefer..

If its online, and the company isnt well known.. I would pay with a credit card, that way I can dispute charges if it comes down to it. BUT I would make sure I already have the money saved up, so the bill can be payed right away.

If the shop is well known and trusted, I would just do a wire transfer.

 

cash money!!!!! i just went down to the shop said i want this and i got it and paid in cash. i felt that everything was safer taht way. good luck with the motor.
