SOCAL JDM MOTORS, LLC. | Japanese Engines & Transmissions

I had a great experience doing business with this company. I am a Subaru owner and a decent mechanic. My 2006 Outback with a 3.0 H6 needed a new engine. SOCAL JDM shipped their engine from Southern California to Portland. I had the engine delivered to my residential address and it arrived within 4 business days! Ben was a pleasure to work with. A detailed Inspection of the engine showed very little wear. While only the long block is guaranteed, nearly all of the ancillary parts were in great condition. only a few sensors around the perimeter of the engine were damaged. I simply replaced them from my old engine. Will gladly do business with SOCAL again! Thank you!

Hands down best place to get a replacement motor. Have bought two engines from this guy and they've come out solid! Appreciate that he helped me load it onto my truck. Do your research if replacement or rebuild is your route. JDM engines vary based on different emissions, right hand drive parts vs left hand, different sensors, different oil pans, and different measurements on pully systems. So much more. Luckily I have some experience under the hood of a car. As soon as I got the engine I visually inspected with an endoscope camera each cylinder through the sparkplug hole, and also the exhaust mainfold along with instake. You can tell a lot from carbon build up and the way it was maintained. Second thing I did was bolt a flywheel and starter and do a compression test. Always look for visible damages, most engines are removed from salvaged vehicles, cant speak for the inventory at this location. But business is business. Im a returning customer and will keep on coming back here.

Very nice place. Great prices. I have been buying engines from here. if you drive jdm cars why waste time and money somewhere else.

Xcelent customer service! Prices are reasonable!! I am happy with my purchase!!👍🏻
