JDM Engines Corp (eBay in Dallas/Richardson TX)

[jacobzking]

I just wanted to post a positive review for jdmenginescorp.com in richardson, TX. Someone had posted a bad experience with them a few years back so I thought I'd put in my 2 cents...

The owner, David, is a pretty nice guy and firm on his prices.

I bought an SR from him for $1799 (which happened to include an expensive manifold, t28, gismo 555s, reprogrammed ecu, z32 maf, metah head gasket, etc...

The motor was in EXCELLENT shape and has great compression. Started right up after install and runs great so far.

I did notice on his eBay listings that he shows videos of compression tests for SOME motors, but not all. I'm assuming he tests them all and only posts the ones with good or high/even compression.

Also, the MAF connector on the harness was for a z32 maf, and the ECU had Z32 written on it... but the car came with an SR MAF. When I got the engine home and unloaded and started checking things out, I realized that the MAF wouldn't plug in. I figured, no big deal, z32 MAFS are cheap. But before going out and buying one, I called David at JDM and he said, "no big deal, bring your SR MAF in and I'll swap it for a z32 one."

Good service. Great engine. Good price (EXCELLENT price if you take in to fact the motor has more in upgrades than what I paid for the whole motor itself).

Thanks JDM!

PS: I just wanted to note that David was very up front about the warranty. Startup warranty for motor only. That's it. And I can understand why; he buys these in "bulk" and sells them for a minimal markup.
