Just got my ze a few hours ago, straight neck, with every accessory on it looked to be in Great condition cleaned too. The only complaint I have is the 7 plug distributor was broken :x #6 plug on cap was falling off. I really would've liked to use that cap for a clean look on an HEI. Also the TB was missing the TPS.
BTW shipping was only $81, I drove to the shipping warehouse near me & they loaded it into my buddy's truck with a forklift for free. The motor was nicely wrapped with plastic on a pallot. I never got charged tax either so the total was $676.13 . I'm gonna see what they'll do about the distributor cap. Probly nothing since the accessories are just a bonus, they're not all guaranteed to be there :( . Still a great deal though

I'm going over today to see them. Glad to hear it was the real thing. I think I have an extra tps, so I'll throw that in with our deal. If they are legit, I should do a groupbuy.

my friend cory is buying an engine right now from them, I actually asked for a straight neck, so you can either get straight neck or curved neck from them, everything checks out, he said engines are cleaned before being sent (why they are so nice looking) and it looks to be about $150 to ship to the east coast...

Ya mine was cleaned & spray painted there's overspray all over the place. Cleaned pretty well though, I like how the motor came with every accessory & the old wiring harness still attached. The spray painting definately wasn't cool though. but for $676 shipped whatever.

I talked to the guys at Engineworld. I probably saw the ze your buddy just ordered. They only had one straight neck there last week. Yes, they have a spot in the corner where they clean them. They don't care about accessories, so whatever is on the engine leaving Japan, is what your getting.

This is "VERY IMPORTANT!" Whatever you say, don't tell them your going to mod that engine. If they know your going to turbo, supercharge, or change anything, they will not sell it to you. They don't want you to bring it back in the 6 months warranty period, with a busted engine.

There legit. I talked to them personally. The guy owns a whole block of auto warehouses, so he doesn't need to scam. Their shipping prices are awesome, so green light to buy from them.
