Default Q about Osaka JDM Motors

Why does everyone from Honda-Tech not recommend purchasing from this company? Like you'll find almost no positive feedback about them on Honda-Tech, whereas here, many people have nothing but good things to say, especially since they are a site sponsor...

just curious, i am looking to buy and engine soon, but it prolly going to be from H Motors or IAS...just exploring all my options.

They started out good enough but now they are the shadiest shop around. HT keeps them as a sponser to pay the bills. Basically they have sent a lot of people the crapiest engines ever, lots have been from flood damaged cars or sent with automatic ecus. It is really worth paying a little more to get your motor from a good shop.

honda-tech is ****ing stupid as hell
(they know osaka blows yet they keep the banner...theyre only in if for the money. when I voiced my opinion on it, others joined in and we were all banned for a short amount of time)

Osaka is the worst store w/ broken parts and shittier service...they never do anything to fix what they have done. However, I hear that they got new management so perhaps things will be different. But...Im not gonna be the brave person to try them.
