Local places to buy Japanese engines?
 

I am looking for an engine for one of my cars and I have found a few good choices online but I would rather not pay freight if I don't need to. Are there good places in VA/NC to get used Japanese engines?

JEI in nova is one.

What are you looking for?

Re: Local places to buy Japanese engines?
 

VE30. Nothing special, just a maxima engine (92-94 SE model), they are hard to find with low miles unless you get one from Japan.

I would try noyan (if they even still sell engines at this point) or JEI

I've had great luck with them both.

Also, it's a myth that most engines from japan are low milage. The truth is the average 10yr old engine has about 100k miles on it. Don't buy into this 30-40k milage thing.

I already sent JEI a PM. I'll check with noyan.

Why are they allowed to be sold as low mileage engines if they really are not? I guess we have no real way of finding out? I really don't care if the engine is a US market engine or a Jap market engine...they come with the same power output, I was just looking the jap route because of the mileage factor.

I just called them and they do not have any VE30's.

J.E.I, talk to Phil, he'll get you taken care of, and if he can't he'll def. point you in the right direction

They don't have anything either.

Are these the only two places around that import Japanese engines?
