Hello everybody, looking to buy a complete front clip from Japan, need an engine. I'd like to know if anyone has dealt with these guys or have heard some good feedback about them (are they legit?).

1) http://www.jrautoparts.com/
2) http://www.flashoptions.com/

Any input is appreciated, thanks.

P.S. or if anybody is parting the whole front end of their Teg or Si let me know (B series only please), or if you know someone who is.

 

I read a lot of bad stuff about Flash Options. They are in Malaysia, and if they actually ship your stuff, then you have to deal with customs.

I don't know anything about jrautoparts, but at least they seem to be domestic.

 

F a front clip....its gonna be expensive as hell and freight is gonna be outrageous.

 

Just dont go to jazzproparts.com to order a motor. I bought a b16a swap and 30miles later it blew the headgasket. They did nothing.

 

WEll, thanks for the replies I guess. I can post up a pic of my engine bay so that you'll understand why I need the whole front clip.

I will definitely need more stuff in there so...

 

hey try like www.hmotorsonline.com or just keep searching... honda tech has a good sponsor that sells motors cheap

 

What else do you need besides what comes with a full swap? Some brackets and a radiator? That's not really that much extra. Don't get fooled by ridiculously low prices.

Stick with proven sellers like hmotors. I had no problems at all with them, and I heard people have been very satisfied with the resolutions of any problems they did have. It's not a coincidence that everyone recommends them.

 

I bought the front clip for my swap from J&R Auto. Vincent is very helpful and knows his shit. He will tell you like it is and is very knowledgable. I'm pretty close to where they are located so shipping wasn't an issue but if you're looking for an opinion, they were the cheapest and cleanest place I could find. I bought a 98 JDM ITR front clip and everything for the swap for $4200. Motor had less than 25,000 miles on it and was factory clean. They are also very reasonable on accessories as well. They only deal in JDM. Hope it was helpful.
