I've heard of most of those but don't have much feedback on them. Where are you located? If possible I'd go down and check out those dealers and engines in person (report back what you find please :) ). If anyone else has info on those ones please let us know! I will say a lot of similar companies had some complaints from what I've heard from some friends in ON but can't recall which ones.

As much as i want to go check out my potential swap in person its not exactly cost effective for me as i am located in PEI (minimum 14 hours drive to the closest distributor) so i need to get my swap shipped and just pray that it isn't a giant paperweight that's why i was hoping to find some reputable places from members here

I would chose one of the vendors in Canada who also sell on EBay. You can research their feedback on EBay, see that they're reputable, and close the deal over the phone (not Ebay). Also, you avoid the hassle of bringing anything in over the USA boarder and paying the duties. Get your own shipping quotes too, you can often do better than what I have found offered as the vendor's default shipper.

I used 3SGE Beams as my search to bring these guys up. If you're looking for a 4G63T Evo motor, you're screwed! Hardly any of those out there. Chances are, what you want is not in stock?

ps I endorse none of those vendors, never used any of them.

I buy all my JDM motors from the JDM shops up on Montreal. Japan Motor Import INC is one of the better ones, but most of the shops will send you video of compression test and lots of detailed pictures of the engine prior to purchasing. I just bought s JDMk24a its like brand new with under 60k.
