Yeaaa! Also jeeze, must take 10 year to put 60k miles on a car in Japan!! No where to go!

 

yyeah most car owners there dont put on many miles in the 90s the gas was more expensive for them than usa's and they don't drive as much

 

good to see it was just the old waterpump...
usually with cooling issues i start with the waterpump and hoses as possible causes, then i move towards the BHG as the worst possible scenario

 

i always wondered how the people in J land were able to put next to no miles on a vehicle....

 

they hav ethe most efficient public transportation in world

 

So, I"m a little surprised! LOL That much coolant leaking from the pump, without a pool under the car???
Also sounds like no one has heard about the import low mileage engines from japan. I purchased my first engine when I lived in LA app 12 years ago. They had enough on hand so that I could pick the engine. Over the years I have installed a few more. It's a cheap way to replace a engine complete from throttle body to pan,all accessories included. For those that need a major rebuild, this a way to save some bills.

 

wish it were so easy for people in jersey

 

Actually it is.

This is a auction in ebay. There are several different places that you can buy the used engines from Japan. I first found out about the japanese engines 12 years ago. They are for real.

This auction is listed at $545 buy it now. Furthermore, and I know a lot of you are going to have a hard time believing this, but the same goes for the transmissions. Search for yourselves.

 

What kind of shipping charges! Anything in the Houston area local??

 

I believe there is a dealer in Houston, I don't see the address yet. Shipping from ca is around $150.

 

Thanx - not that I need one, but good info to have! Is there a distributor I should Google for?

 

george jet i saw that auctions months ago, i was about to buy that actually recently. but anyway , you still have to deal with shipping. you can't just go and pick it up.
