Hi, Has anyone ever ordered an engine from JDM_Planet on ebay?

I've never heard anything from these people. Now they claim to ship the RB25DET w/ transmission - complete uncut harness - and ecu for $1949.00

I've emailed them and asked and they say it comes with ALL engine parts, COMPLETE engine upper/lower engine harness, and the ecu. They also say they have sold 20+ engines.

Anyone know anything about them?

i bought a rb20det block, transmission, ect from them about a year ago. didn't get a stock MAF, clutch was toast, thermostat bad, i replaced them which wasn't a big deal since i had already planed on it except for the maf, got the motor in and running turns out my rings were blown. highest pressure test i got was like 65psi lowest being 30 psi. already had past the warranty they offered me a block for $500 but don't trust them so yeah thats what i got out of them. live and learn it just costs you acouple of Gs to rebuild...

Exactly.

Check our sponsors! - Raw Brokerage may have some - ask Coolwhip (Ricky).

if i were you, i'd get the motor from rawbrokerage. Not only is he a RB engine enthusiast but he is a big active member on these forums. So you will know he will double-check the engine and if you happen to have something wrong, you know where he will be to communicate with.
