Hello all,I have been looking for good sites to find engines and I am looking at dragdriftautox.com and jspecautosports.com, both from the buy sell trade thread. I noticed that jspecautosports offers a 60-day warranty; that seems to be pretty rare. Does anyone have any experiance with these sites? Let me know.

BTW - I live near Houston, TX. Anyone in the area looking to get rid of a CA motorset?

http://www.jhotexports.com sent me a full motorset to my door for just shy of $1250. 90 day startup, and when they forgot to send me a ignitor and dropping resistor, they 2nd day air-mailed me them for no charge! Really great guys and they have CA motorsets all the time. The setup is there is several recycling facilities that Oishi-San owns in Japan, and he ships parts to the US warehouse in Agusta, Ga. Really a VERY top notch company!! The cars come in, they test them, then strip them and send the parts abroad. So you know that what you are getting is from a running car in JDM land (most of the time, if not, they will tell you)

I blew my 240's engine about a week ago. Now I have to drive my old POS car. I basically get pissed off every time i touch the breaks, turn the wheel, touch the gas, look for a shift knob and clutch... you get the picture. Glad to hear I'm not alone. lol

Thanks for the link, rico. I'll check that one out too.
