Default OSAKA JDM MOTORS

I've heard a few bad things about getting your motor from osakajdmmotors.com but i was wondering if anyone ever had a good experience with them? Their prices are just so cheap and i have noticed that the Honda-Tech site its self advertises their banners so i was wondering what it is about them that is so bad?

2 guys from my club got their motors from Osaka, they have nothing but good things to say about them. Maybe it has to do with the fact that they went and picked them up, but still... they seem to be great quality engines!

One was a B16b and the other was a B16a2.

Never buy from OSAKA they are rip off artists. I got my 1st b16 from them cylinders 2 and 3 had only 40lbs of pressure in them, had to threaten with a lawyer to get my money back.

I didnt have any problems with mine. Its pretty standard youre usually only going to find people voicing complaints. I work at a call center (have for 4 years) and Ill be damned if not once have I had a customer call up and say "hey I just wanted to let you guys know that everything is fine."

Weird, I have bought two motors from them and both my motors were perfect. I bought the h22 in my accord, it was clean, everything worked, and I bought a b18c1 from them and the same. The motor was flawless. Im glad I havent had the same experiences u people have had.
