VVT motors GROUP BUY
 
Group buy is now CLOSED
Hey folks,

We are clearing out space in the shop, and you have a chance to get four vvt motors for a big discount.

Engines are stripped, bare, and with unknown mileage (simply because we lost track on it). Mileage estimates between 76k-110k.

Engines were tested prior to removal.

We can ship out the four of them in a single crate for the price of 1900$, which is 475$ each!

A single order would be 625$ which is 175$ off our 800$ asking price.

If you'd like a squaretop manifold to be added then add only 200$ and allow us for some time to source it

Priority will be given at any time (until we reach 4 buyers) to a buyer who will want all four.

Once the list is complete we will be sending out PM's.

Put your name on the list like so:
1.
2.
3.
4.

edit: adjusted single order pricing

One question though. Can you for 100% certain say the engine is good? I've had really really awful luck with engines in my BP car car lately (two rod knocking engines I was told were good in a row) and just want to be sure. Pulling engines in and out does get quite tiring after the third time.

UK_Miata_Parts 02-25-2019 04:36 PM

We don't do compression tests but we test all engines for two hours prior to removal. We check for odd noises, smoke, overheating, excessive leakage etc.
We are not selling an engine with the slight bit of knocking sounds.
Engines come with a 30 day warranty assuming no boost/race application.
Any problem like that, please send us a video recording and you will be refunded immediately.

Awesome, that's completely fair. Definitely in for it then

BigEasy 02-26-2019 06:06 PM

You can put me down for one engine and one squaretop manifold! Excited to get an engine and manifold this cheap for an endurance car build!

Jesse99James 02-26-2019 06:49 PM

Posting again since I'm showing myself to also be a Noob loser.
After a little thought I realize this way it'll be quotable and easier to add a 4th name...

I'll take the lot of (4). If UK is open I might be able to add in additional parts to the order and ship once stateside if that is desirable. I'm in Oklahoma for what it's worth.

UK_Miata_Parts 02-27-2019 10:17 AM

Group buy is officially closed. Six engines will be going out to TheBandit, Scaxx and BigEasy.
Thank you for your orders!

Scaxx 02-27-2019 01:24 PM

Really looking forward to getting my engine and having my little beater Brad back again. I'm glad you did the group buy, it was just the thing to push me over the edge

NOOOO Dont jump!:crx:

Scaxx 02-27-2019 11:22 PM

Don't worry, you can have the tubing bender and square die if I jump :)

UK_Miata_Parts 03-18-2019 11:23 AM

Almost ready to ship the bigger order of the three.
We are sorry for the delays, but we had to catch up with a lot of orders, both here and in mainland UK.
For a bonus - A complete dipstick worth more than the 4 engines combined!

Scaxx 03-18-2019 11:37 AM

Ahhhh shit! I got that invincible cali dipstick on one of my engines.

TheBandit 03-19-2019 05:38 PM

I appreciate the deal offered here, but if the ad had stated a 3+ week lead time I would have been much less apt to send you $1,900.

As a vendor on this site myself, I know that this would be unacceptable to any of my customers without prior communication. I've opened up a communication dialogue through PayPal in hopes that we can come to an agreeable resolution for shipment.

vteckiller2000 03-19-2019 06:11 PM

Classy...

concealer404 03-19-2019 06:23 PM

The classiest! 5/7 now more likely to purchase additional products from especially in light of how awesome the experience was the last time!

UK_Miata_Parts 03-19-2019 06:41 PM

I literally just posted yesterday a photo of YOUR four engines on a pallet almost ready to go, and you go ahead and file a claim against me. I don't know what to say really...
Maybe I should have been more clear about the engines needed to get stripped, and yes handling time has been delayed, but I apologized for it and given proof of progress and been very communicative with you on pm's.
There is an added complexity of shipping overseas a 1200lbs shipment. Special care must be taken. Heck most shops/vendors (including you) wouldn't even bother shipping the smallest of items to a different country.
You will have a tracking number very soon, in the meantime I hope you'll do the right thing.

Scaxx 03-19-2019 07:04 PM

Bro. If it was a problem, why did you wait this long to reach out and ask about them? Yossi has been more than responsive to all my PMs and been a joy to work with.
