found them from this site.

http://www.flashoptions.com/default.asp

anyone bought from them or have any info? seems cheap, but seems sketchy. storing clips in malaysia, no credit cards or paypal. anyone used them before?

where did you get yours besides the standard places like heavy throttle? I'm not paying heavy throttle 6 grand for a motor swap package, thats ridiculous. its not even an entire front clip, just the motor/transmission/ignitor/harness. thats way to expensive

Depends how much they charge for shipping. Sounds like they strip the clips, and they don't list mileage.

try http://www.jarcoinc.com my boy got one from there and his is running stroing. they send you a video with plate number of the car before they cut it up. he paid 4500 shipped for a s14 sr20det notchtop. well worth it

I used http://www.mrjdm.com i paid 3500 for an s14 half cut with around 40k miles. they ship directly from japan so you will have to pay for customs and docking fees. for me it was an additional 230 bucks.

i checked out mr JDM. I think I'll go that route. although I dont live in a "port" city so I'll have to figure out shipping from there to where I live. They have been helpful though so I am not too worried

you have to email them to ask for a price and see if they can toss in some free stuff in there for you. if you speak to them on the phone its some crazy asian guy that doesn't stop speaking.

you don't have to live near a "port," my clip came into US in cali and then it was trucked here to boston. so i actually picked it up from a trucking company. i had to pay for docking fees in cali and then docking fees in boston. you also will have to go to customs and clear it. you will need a receipt of what it is and how much you paid for it. i didn't have to pay any duty fees. just tell them its the same exact engine as the one in the 240sx model here. hope that helps.

boba,

couple more questions. how did they make you pay? how long did it take you to get it? and do you know of anyone else who has used mrjdm? I'm having trouble finding people as references. they want me to do a wire transfer to their bank account so i want to make sure its legit before i sign over 3200 bucks for a s13 front clip with body panels. thanks for all your help so far

hey, i responded to your email already.

I took about a month for me to get my clip but that was because they thought i wanted an engine set and already packaged it and then had to get me another clip. from the paper work it i looks like it took 15 days on the boat from japan and then another week on truck from LA to Boston.

also make them guarantee you the millage of the clip make sure the cluster is still in it too.

after selling all of my left over parts from the clip and the ka parts, my sr cost me prolly 2k at the most.
