All Swappers

Where did you guys get your 1j, 2j front clips, engines, trans, etc...

I've been looking in SF & CL classified forums, but most are not complete, short and long blocks, but no harness, ecu, etc...

and the other place I have also looked is Ebay

but if I could get some feed back from your expirence and place of purchase, that would be great.

Michael @ Jarco, can't go wrong, they are the best around!

Not only got me an amazing clip, also showed me video of it running before cutting up the car. Also, he made a great deal to ship to me with another person's going near me. When I got it, I asked him questions and he gave me great advice.

I have heard bad stories regarding tiger japanese. A friend of mine bought a 2JZGTE for his Supra MKIII. Turbos were badly messed and ended up having to spend extra $$$ to go single.

Also a few threads about some bad 1JZs they recieved from the same company. Conclusion: don't buy from them. They may look like bargains, but you get what you pay for.
