Japan Star recieving Bad rep from FL

[Shady]

@Chris07SS

You shouldn’t be buying an old POS motor and swapping it in without checking the entire motor over. It’s a USED motor, what do you want from it? :lol Buy a fresh crate motor if you want something you can drop in and drive 200,000 miles on without having to worry about anything.

@votblindub

buyer beware, youre buying a shipped USED motor. itll be 10x the cost if they were to actually take them all apart, recheck everything and recondition it and then sell it to ppl. but then everyone would be bitching at them cuz their motors are too expensive and whatnot. you’re buying a used product, what do you freakking want? it happens. deal with it.

ya but vadim, almost EVERY motor ive heard of that came out of there is a shit box in some way.

Most of the people that buy them, if not all just swap and drive. It would be a different story if they were going to rebuild it anyways. Also, i’d be pissed too if i saved up 1500 and i bought a blown motor that i have no money to do anything with.

Most of the stories I’ve learend about japan star are horrible… Conditions the engines are kept in etc…

Theres a lot of webistes that sell JDM motors and hardly anyone has gotten a bad motor, and if they did theyre generaly pretty good about fixing the problem… A lot of places compression test at the very least to make sure its good before selling.

Japan star is over priced IMO…

I reemmber a few people saying a Redtop SR20 from them is about 2000 bucks?

Theres quite a few sites where you can get a redtop for 1200 shipped to your door…

A base SR20DET 700 bucks shipped, and an SR20DE 400 bucks shipped.
