: call about sr20ve
pearl96sr20de 02-28-2003, 08:50 PM Guys i called place called soshin today and they quoted me 725 for sr20ve and said he has at least one left. but then i told him i live in ri and he said shippin would be 900 so what u think of this deal? good or no for the engine? that is not shippin cause shippin sounds like biggest rip off
by the way it is only engine no tranny.
DILLIGAF Racing 02-28-2003, 08:53 PM I'd believe that for shipping, it has to go by truck and all. Sounds cheap for the motor. There number is??
pearl96sr20de 02-28-2003, 09:14 PM soshinusa.com the # is on there
FastNX 02-28-2003, 09:20 PM 900 including shipping or 900 FOR shipping? i know soshin has really good prices, i have no expereince buying from them but i have heard of poeple using their JDM motors and apparently they are fine. i'd jump on it if its 900 shipped
pearl96sr20de 02-28-2003, 09:38 PM Noooooooooo i wish it was 900 shipped, that 900 is for shippin, it 725 for motor so total would be 1625!
CNibbana 02-28-2003, 10:30 PM If I were you I would get their zip code and then call around to shipping companies yourself. Once you find a cheaper price call them and ask them to use that shipping company, plus perhaps a small surcharge if they have to get it ready on the pallet.
cranium 03-01-2003, 12:56 AM something is telling me that they are doing the E-bay trick where they want a very cheap price for the item but will charge an arm and a leg for shipping ( to make up the price that they are "discounting" the item for).
somehow i think you could find a number of places you can get one for about $1700 shipped (regardless of the product vs. shipping cost)
b12sr20ve 03-01-2003, 12:05 PM so thats $1625 for an sr20ve...still cheaper compared to the deal Storm Performance is givvng to me... $1200 for a sr16ve without shipping(from japan to Philippines)...
but 900 for shipping is still a rip off i think but btw where do you live? USA?
pearl96sr20de 03-01-2003, 12:43 PM Rhode Island on the east coast
PrOxLaMuS© 03-01-2003, 02:25 PM CAn you still use the original ECU from a normal SR20DE?
Or do you have to get it re-programmed, from JWT or somethin
llaprad1 03-01-2003, 03:36 PM My motor shipped from CA to TN was $150 in shipping cost.
Not to condesend, but did you clarify that $900 was for shipping *only*? This is the first time Ive heard a somewhat-reputable engine seller to use this technique if so.
pearl96sr20de 03-01-2003, 05:23 PM yes i clarified it with him i asked him like 3 times the price and he said same thing 725 for engine 900 dollars to ship!!!
llaprad1 what company u go thru? im gonna ask around and tell them to use whatever co is cheapest if they allow me too.
Shoes59 03-01-2003, 06:33 PM $900 to ship an engine to RI is complete bunk. You should pay no more than $350 for shipping.
b12sr20ve 03-01-2003, 11:18 PM ok RI is rhode island..hehe im not familiar with US state initials. :D
do you know any other companies that could ship an sr16 from japan to Phil?
pearl96sr20de 03-01-2003, 11:34 PM i dont know of any cause i havent called around yet but which have u tried? i mean i dont know if they ship in other countries but there is
fed ex, ups,etc.
b12sr20ve 03-02-2003, 01:49 AM i tried storm performance but they are giving it $1200(without shipping)!!! engine will be shipped from their office in japan to Manila...but shipping no yet included so $1200 + $shipping = ???
and they want moeny befor engine is shipped...NO WAY!!!
dont know a single local importer who knows VE's here...no VE locally
