Where I bought my sr20det

[stumpz]

As some of you may know, I recently purchased my sr20det and did the swap myself! Well I just wanted to say a few things about where I bought my motor from!Well I made a WTB post on the zilvia forums back in October saying I was looking to purchase an sr for cheap blah blah blah. Well i get a reply from TND240. I talked to him for a while and eventually decided to make the purchase. He is a great guy, really nice, we had some paypal problems, but sorted them out with ease . Along to the motor! It's great!!! I've heard all of these horror stories of like submerged looking motors, or blown cas's and whatnot. Well everything turned out GREAT! The car is running now, everything feels pretty good, no nasty sounds or anything just lots of boost . I HIGHLY RECOMMEND him and his company JAPAN MOTOR IMPORT. You can contact TND240 at [email protected] or on AOL Instant Messenger TND240S13 and i believe the website is Japan Motor Import Great prices. Great Guy. Great service. -peace

Damn man theyre sellin the motor for 1300? did it come w/ everythin u needed?

[D1SR240]

hmm, they seem to be located in Canada, so i wonder how much shipping will be. I'm alos wondering about whats included with that price, because if it's everything, then i might be getting an SR sooner than i thought. : )

[Altiman94]

I could drive to canada to pick up my motor, it's only a few hours from here in northern iowa.

hey i gotta talk a lil fast, i'm still at school in mah cisco networking class..but i was originially told 1600 shipped to a local business. It came with everything except for the MAFS in which i just used the stock one, and am about to trade mah ka transmission for a z32..For a few more dollars he sent me a SMIC (which i never used and will be selling if anyone wishes to buy it...it has very few bent fins..i can take pics if anyone is interested..) w/ the bypass valve, but no piping and also a 3 inch downpipe. It's a real nice motor for a real nice price. i am very pleased.

[D1SR240]

wait, it didn't even come with the transmission?

[stumpz]

....it came w/ everything..........ecu, harness, 5spd transmission, cas, turbo, head, fuel rail, injectors, everything the motor needs to run expcept for the MAFS..

[Phax]

... and am about to trade mah ka transmission for a z32..

Did you say that you're going to put a Z32 transmission on your SR20? This is the first I've heard about that. What components do you need to swap around? I know that you can fit the KA internals into an SR bellhousing. But Z32? Is the gear ratio better on Z32 transmission? Do you use the trans from the NA or turbo, or do they both have the same gear ratios?

[XCrunner19420]

i think he means for a z32 maf sensor.

[JimLecesse]

hey keep this thread alive.. and lets hear about anyone elses experiences with this company??

[catty]

Yea I can vouch for stumpy since I helped him install the sr, definatly worth buying from that company I was looking into the swap too but just got fired from my job so its gonna have to wait.

[catty]

oh yea he did mean z32 mafs

[240marcuSX]

yeah, im giving him my Z32 MAFS for his old misc. KA parts, since im going with WDs kit for my KAE when he gets it finished.

i finally got to see stumpz swap and i must say....

:hitit

[stumpz]

[k6kicker]

does the maf ve to be off a vg30dett or would a de work the same?

[thephatone]

damn i saw that 1300 price tag also....seems very cheap i wonder how much shipping will be

[jdmfreak]

Man thats damn cheap. If I hear more experiences with this company Id definately go with these guys if I get an S14.

[Sliding_S14]

How much Xtra did you pay for the SMIC?

[dareo]

finally a company w/o the hype price increase. its just an SR20 anyway.

[jdmfreak]

Im definately interested. Lets hope those prices stay that way.

[DeathBy240SX]

Thats a real good price, they must be closed for the holidays however, as I havent been able to contact anyone.

[Smurf6x6]

Yah SR's are really cheap up here. There's not really a big damand for them yet here.

[flatbax]

Hey TND240 that would be real cool of you to keep us posted on the up and coming silvia parts you will be getting in at your site. Thanks

[JimLecesse]

yeah definitely keep us posted i could use a provider like you for all my JDM toys

[S14Life]

This is awsome. An SR for 1400$ or so is perfect. I'll be emailing you soon...

And yes, definatly keep us updated.

[ca18det_boy]

That is such a low price for an SR!! I just shot em' an e-mail and I might be getting one next week. YEAH!!!!

[slipsr20]

keep this thread alive!any one else had any experince with them?

[red93_240]

i contacted them about a week ago and he was very nice and answered all of my questions.

he told me that from there in canada to here (im in tn) the motor set would be 1875.00 shipped.pretty good deal if you ask me.

[240SXedUp]

Damn!I can buy an S14 notch top for what most places charge for a red top... interesting

[spitz7985]

not that this matters in this thread, but you can bolt on the z32 trans to either the KA or SR if you use the stock engine's bellhousing. it requires some custom fabrication, but it would be a good mod if you use the turbo modle's transmission.
