Source for JDM engine swaps ?
I've purchased from JHot Imports on Ebay before and haven't had any problems with my swap, but it looks like they're out of business. Who have you guys used? Ebay seems to have decent prices and good variety, but I'm just wondering what else is out there. Looking for something to go into my '93 TW project.

I've also wondered if there were any local ones but not to colorado, to the olympia area, meaning seattle, tacoma, portland. If I ever swap again it would be nice to cut out the $600 shipping charge.

Did your 20G come off Ebay as well? I'm not opposed to Ebay, but like you said, $600 shipping hits hard. Everything seems to come from the East Coast and I've seen shipping to CO range from $200 - $400.

Yeah I got it from ebay. Got a steal on it too just cuz they listed it as having an auto trans and it was 5spd. $600 minimum bid won it.
