I mess up the whole there,thier, theyre thing too. But back to the point. I always wondered about those low mile Japan. motors. My cousin put one in his CRX and had good luck with it. However I always thought; "If I bought a car in Japan, that I was only allowed to drive for 300000 miles. I dont think I would prioritize maintence. I would imagine its a crap-shoot. I did buy a Japanese truck, a little for that reason though. Worst case scenario $1200 for a Japan. motor. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> As apposed to the worst case domestic scenario. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> Quick note. The Honda engine for the CRX was bought from Rising Sun.
