Great communicationand fast response to every question.

Had what I needed instock and it shipped much faster than I expected. It would have been 5 stars had I received a shipping notification.

Engine came in ok condition, unfortunately the intake manifold nipples were broken off and the intake gasket had a leak. Just be weary when you purchase one of these you may have to replace everything but the engine block itself and whatever is inside of it.

Sent me the wrong transmission. From different car model that shared similar transmission

Great experience, very easy to deal with. Transmission works with no problems

Fast shipping, great product,very clean.

Really easy pick up considering another person was picking up for me just had to send both IDs. Only thing is they gave no alternator (said on website) which is fine considering that they are considered gifts.

Arrived on time and was the correct transmission.

Didn't have to wait to long to receive my order and the driver stayed in contact with me the whole time until actual.delivery

Engine arrived in poor condition. Several broken components. Wasn't even drained of fluid. It is about what I expected for a $900 engine but the shipping was prompt and customer service was responsive.

Fast shipping and easy transaction, unfortunately that is all I can say about it. Wasn't going to review this but today's discoveries about the engine mounts threw me over the top.

First off understand that you are paying for a long block only, any additional parts i.e. intake manifold, turbos, wiring and such are all "gifts" from the seller and those parts should be reused from your original engine, which they state on the website. While I get this and understand this in most cases, this, in my opinion is not one of them.

This engine and transmission combo is listed as a swap, and even in the questions tab they list that this combo was never offered in the US so modification will be required. My issue is that either they or their importer strapped the engine down right across the intercooler and of course it is mounted to the intake manifold, which is plastic, so guess what happened? Yep, it is broken. Well in this particular case you can't reuse your intake because this is a swap and like they say this was never offered in the US so how can I use my intake?

The description clearly states what is included but their pictures show an engine that has more like the ECU and the diesel fuel filter. Well of course they say that it is a sample picture shown and of course none that stuff showed up with the engine so they have an out. While I kind of knew that would happen it is disappointing since again this is a swap that was never available to the US market and that is stuff that is needed to get this running in a car. So again, you cannot reuse your old stuff.

If you know Subarus then you know that the engine wiring harness has a connector (or two depending on the model) to disconnect to easily remove the engine without removing the whole harness. Well, I guess a little lever to disconnect the harness was too much for these guys to use so they just cut the plug off....... on the wrong side, the least they could have done was cut opposite of the connector on the car side but nope more work to be done. Again, another instance of you cannot reuse your original stuff.

Went to actually set the combo in the car today and noticed that the engine mounts are missing, someone actually took the time to remove the mounts from the engine which is two bolts each and one of them is kind of hard to get to when to remove the engine there is only two total nuts to remove to get the engine out of the car and just leave the mounts in place. Not cool. And again, another instance of you cannot reuse your old stuff.

Then there is the warranty, only a 30 day startup warranty which in their defense is perfectly acceptable in a one for one change, but to list this as a swap and show pictures of almost everything you need to complete it but then none of it shows with it and is missing other parts to complete it there is no way that you will get this started in 30 days. Especially since they say in their questions section about this and everyone who knows this diesel engine that this was never offered here in the US and to order these specific parts has to be done from overseas sellers which take 2-3 weeks to get you will never know if there is something wrong with this particular setup.

So, I do not have faith in this setup running right after everything is done. While I will continue this swap because this is a spare fun car to play with, I am disappointed in what they show versus what was received. This particular unit that I received looks and feels like it was thrown together from multiple cars to make it. They list it for a forester but the mounting points that are used in a forester are not here, but you can tell that the mounts that were used in an outback where there but removed.

So here we are at 3 weeks past my purchase date still waiting on parts to show from Europe so I can complete this swap, so the 30-day warranty is useless.

they quickly sent another transmission because the first transmission they sent me was defective

Sold me an engine for a Mazda RX8 with no compression and water inside under the excuse that there is not warranty on rotary engines.
BIG SCAM.

Fast delivery day after purchase.
Price was better than most domestic engine replacments.
I do regret going with a Japanese motor, because how much extra work swaping everything over was but that's on me for not first doing the research.

Fast service. Exactly what we needed!

Buen precio y servicio

Sold me a dead engine filled with water and voided warranty

Fast shipping and great service. Transmission works great

Engine was definitely higher milage then advertised.
