I'm reading on here, motors from 10-40k miles. B18B is 650 bucks, well worth the buy? Does this place really deal out GOOD, no problem, legit motors? If so, I think paying 650 for a newer B18B compared to mine with 135k on it would be well worth it. I could bring the turbo idea back into the picture. Has anyone bought from here, heard from people who have bought from here, and was it a hassle? Thank you all.

 

legit, but shady as ****. Deal with someone else.

 

run a search on osaka here on honda tech and youll find out about them

 

my friend just got his b16 from there. it was in ok shape, but the idiots cut a lot of the wires instead of just unplugging the harness. hmotors is better, some of osaka's engines are cheaper though

 

get it from somewhere else, ive heard way too many bad stories to even think of getting anything from them.

 

My friend got a j-spec B18C Type R engine from Hmotorsonline.com, it was pretty expensive, but EVERYTHING was included, even GS-R axles for installing it into a 98 Civic (J-spec axles have larger splined ends). It included the entire harness, nothing cut. I think maybe one sensor was slightly damaged but we just swapped the one from his D16Y7 over and it worked great.

Most times if you get the engine for cheap, you end up paying more just to get everything ready to go and suitable for installing in the car.

 

I remember when Osaka was considered the ****... If its cheap and good, it won't be for long, seems to be the nature of this industry. You gotta pay to play

 

Osaka is pretty good, i've been to there shop in montreal..pretty damn sweet. A friend of mine got a gsr swap through them, all the wires intact...no problems at all. I give them a

 

I wouldn't touch Osaka with someone else 10 foot pole.

Stay away, Far Far away.

 

my cuz bought a 1st Gen b16 from them with LSD y1 tranny..for $1500 shipped...and it seems to be ok...very fast shipping..only complaints we had were harness was cut pretty shitty..and map sensor was broke when we got it...other then that..motor runs real strong!

 

dude DON'T. Use the search and you'll see why

 

Osaka sucks don't take the chance. hmotorsonline dude the only way to go.

 

i just got mine from hmo and i heard positive feedback about them

Couldn't agree with you more.....learned the hardway..

 

My friend delt with osaka . The axels were torched in half , harness was cut up , didnt include the linkeage he paid extra for . I just bought a b18c for my gsr and it is beautiful , not one complaint because i bought it from steve at hmotorsonline.com I would never deal with osaka .

 

ahhh i bought osaka, and it was the worst possible thing i could ever do... i paid extra for the lsd tranny and it came cracked on the bottom.. torched axles.. gashed valve cover.. never drove it yet but runs, i took it to the body shop and got it back last week and now my distributer is bad!! go figure~
