Message :for another and shipping and so on. I realize there is minor things such as swithching the oil pressure sending unit over and issues with ecu's (from what I have heard).
:All I am saying is weigh out what you intend. If he is looking for something that runs (maybe) then get a JDM. If he plans to create power down the road then get a built one or build one yourself (if he knows what he is doing).
:I guess I just hate EBAY deals and cheap routes. The car is a Z and should not be cheaply done but again I am a little crazy about JDM swaps and stuff. I just have it in my head
that you have no clue what was done to the motor, how they (dealer) got it, how they check it, why they have it, and there is no mileage so the motor could have been ran through a river for 10 days :).
:Simply put. Just be careful and if he chooses JDM then ask for reputable companies, like you have listed.

i am planning on putting this car to stock specs..i dont want no mods done to it except bolt ons like exhaust,intake etc..
the guy who had the car before dog the living shit out of this car and when i did the compression check..3 pistons was on zero and the rest was in the low 120's..i just want a clean engine with low milage
