I thought you swore they were as good or better than McKinney's in another thread.....and I quote....

"check it: the clip has ~19,000 miles, it is a R32 GTR specV, the guy is giving me the RB25 transmission, and complete rear of an R33, and mckinney mounts at cost. Also mentioned he knew a company called Masa, that also did mounts for the 26 swap. He sais they used both at his shop and were of equal greatness, just Masa are about 20% cheaper than Mckinney. Three G's shipped to Tampa, delivered to my doorstep. Slowly but shirly. $800 coupe. no more than five G's. whose seen camo-red?"

No, I've never heard of them.

Swap Kits? Sounds too good to be true in the RB world.

Where's the website? Where are they located?

Masa is based in Japan. I don't think they'd be making mounts to put rb25dets into S13's. Too old to them.-Alex

I was pretty tight with his boy Tomo who had a sattelite shop on Okinawa. Masa is pretty big into Crews but I could see him making swap mounts, Tomo had an RB26 in his Crew, his head mechanic had an SR so they are experienced with fruitiness.Here is the websitehttp://www.masamotorsports.com/
