Help Deciding On Motor.....

[theone]

What do you all think….

I talked to Nippon Motors, and they said they have f22a6 for 595bux with 40-50k miles on them.
Also my cousin has an extra motor, but with like 160k miles on it and he might offer it to me for 400bux.

I save about 2-300 if I go we my cousin but if I go with Nippon I damn near have a new motor…which I like very very much….lol.

Also if I was to go with the Nippon motor, I was gona transfer my stuff from the motor in my car now, drop it in and crank up the boost to 12-14psi (tuned).
And while riding off that, start the rebuild on the motor I pulled out.

Or
Should I get the motor from my cousin, and start rebuild on that motor, then once done drop it in????

Im just looking for some help/opinions from my cb7 fam, thanks…

whatever you decide on...definitly put a DOHC head on it! the nippon deal doesnt sound to bad

Get the one with low miles

[MRX]

For the money your buying those engines you could just find a just the block for $150ish or less, hone it, forged pistons, and stock cryo rods. It'll cost u a little more than $550-600 total but the block won't be stock atleast. I mean theres plenty of ppl parting out cb7's up there i thought. If not the nippon deal sounds ok,but is that with or without shipping

[phatdoughnut]

for 600 dollars you can get a f22b dohc or f20a dohc. just look around

and it sounds like your cousin is trying to rip you off, those old motors are worth like 200 maybe 300 tops..

[MRX]

werd, i'd never pay over $200 for the whole motor

[phatdoughnut]

just as a note i paid 675 shipped for my jdm f22b dohc. sucks that i paid more for that then the h22. sigh....

good luck with the find tho!

Whats up,

There is a 800 number in our yellow pages (The OneBook) for motors. They located F22's and sold them for $250 and delivered to the location of your choice with no extra charge. I'll check for the number when I get home.

[kamaccord]

If you want an F22B call 410 342-4404. They normally have several in stock and they are very negotiable.

meh.. get urself a block from someone on the forums with decent miles... hell im getting one for 25.. lol...

[90boostdaccord]

just buy a used one if you're rebuilding

why spend a shitload of money for something that will only be in your car temporarily

preciate the help folks....



Also Mid, I thought that also, not the just buy a bottom end part but sending like stock rods and rings to be cryo-ed, shit then they’ll be some what like performance after market parts.

100-150 for bottom end
think its like 60 bux for rods/rings to be cryo-ed
399 for forged pistons

I like that….plus right in my budget….lol

think im a do that.....

shit Wikked....ill give u 50 for the bottom end u buy for 25....lol.
j/k

now im in search for one....thanks again folks

[MRX]
