thats a decent price for everything that they include. You might find it cheaper on ebay but no where else.

And like i said above, when my buddy bought the motor he talked the price down

Previously (like 1-2 years ago) I heard mixed reviews.
However I gotta say their pricing for a redtop S13 SR is not bad ($1950)
If they can be talked down to like 1800-1850 thats a STEAL!
I know youre looking for Subaru related items, but I'm just saying.

my friend bought his R33 SII RB25DET there and the motor was clean-ish, the warehouse was alright, but they have a real i don't give a crap attitude. talking to the guys in there was more like work on our end than simply doing business. it was like everything you asked them to do was a chore. plus, they destroyed the timing cover with the fork lift and basically told us 'tough luck, you can bang it out and repaint it". he got no discount even after coming back to give them more business, so the prices were just as they are on the site. i dunno, if you'd ask me i would say don't go there based on the guy's attitude only, but they're probably a good place to buy parts from.

btw, my buddy had some problems and had to put his project on hold for about a year and still hasn't started the motor so that sucks if it's bad haha. it turns over fine though

Yup. I got the same vibe whenever I got an engine from them. Fortunately every swap I purchased was in good shape and had good compression. Luckily from now on, I'll be getting my engines directly from our own contact in Japan.
