Has anyone else noticed how much JSPEC.com likes to jack up there prices?
Touge Factory
Jspec.com
Have anyother examples? I'm looking for a Koyo radiator and a Walbro (or anybody) 255 lph in tank fuel pump.(Both for 93 S13 with RB25DET)Any help is greatly appreciated.
Rip off?

jspec they might not have the cheapest prices as they state that on the faq or info section, but they have great service...the person that drops in sr/rb etc.. for jspec customers is ernie fixmer so i dont know they are very reputable as my friend buys alot of stuff from them...and if your a repeating customer he hooks you up...

Jspec does not have good customer service, and I know that firsthand.
He has a ton of rare parts, he knows it, he can rip people off and he knows it. And he will continue to run his business that way. That said, this is the inherent problem with supply and demand. There is more demand than supply so he can do whatever the hell he wants and people will continue forking over the money.
I try to avoid buying from him, but I have in the past, if his customer service was better, I would probably buy more often, but based on my past interactions with him, I'm not interested in doing business with him.

That pretty much what I thought. It seems like everything that he has you can get somewhere else cheaper. Kinda like Night7...BUT WHERE CA I GET A FRIGGIN KOYO RADIATOR!?!?! I thought about going through McKinney Motorsports (Calif.) because I plan to by their RB25DET mount kit. I guess the firs step though would be to get some money. Only 500 bucks to go and its already almost tax return time (o^_^o)

There are a million people who will "look" for stuff for you. Jarco, phase2, Rare Trick, Togue Factory.
Jspec has it all in stock. THAT is why he has the advantage, and THAT is why people buy from him.

Those guys keep stuff in stock as well, but the difference is that they own they're own junkyards in Japan. Because of this, they can afford to give you a lower price. No middle man like with Jspec.com.:oface No middle man, no searching. No searching, better prices. Shipping is a killer though (with clips and such)
nah, Bud is right, Sam at jspec has JdM teeIte sHeOt in stock, so you can call, and get those tyte mesh wheels your drift whip needs next day or whatever.
Anyother place can get you whatever you want, but you haev to wait for it to get here from Japan. Jspec has good service from my dealings though, i bought a few things like nismo mounts from them. If you shop you can find cheaper places...so don't buy from him. He even says that. Don't buy from him if you don't want to.
