Spoke to Jim the first time and was quite friendly and helpful. I called the morning and spoke to Omar and he was friendly too, they let me walked around so I can see what they have, from that it shows me they were not hiding anything and I will be doing business with them on a regular basis.
Omar and his team were very professional. The engine purchased is the one I saw in the picture. Don't waste time going elsewhere. Quality engine and reasonable price. Thanks guys!
Was quoted $1200 over the phone when I asked for a 03WRXSTI engine. Took time out of work and drove from Tampa to pick it up. When I got there they put a legacy motor on my trailer and told me that’s what the $1200 motor was. The gentleman that was originally helped me was trying to be as helpful as possible but the other gentleman there was not very helpful. I have been going here for yrs and sending my customers here as well. So i spent 2 hours of my day driving plus another 3 hrs of back and forth. I understand that for engine and transmission it would maybe cost 1800 but all i needed was a motor. He even said let me listen to the phone recording of when i called, he even heard his employee state $1200 for what i asked for. In the end i ended up paying $1900 because no one else had it in stock. This is the last time i will be sending my customers and buying from this company. Worst customer service I've ever dealt with.
Ramon the Wizard at JDM orlando helped me over the phone pinpoint th problem in my installation of my 99 honda civic, it was the iacv sensor and pinpointed the problem and took my calls to help me right when I needed it by looking at some photos over the phone. Exceptional personal service called me back numerous times just to help and a blessing to get my car back on the road engine and tranny 5 speed swap. Knowledge is power thank you so much for your time and beyond ill be an extended customer to jdm orlando.
Jim was really helpful, showing the engine and also doing the compression test and making sure I was happy and satisfied with what I was buying, will definitely buy again if needed!
Excellent experience from start to finish. I purchased a used engine,exactly as described ,clean, well-maintained, and in excellent condition. The engine runs perfectly and has exceeded my expectations. Communication was clear and professional and everything was handled smoothly. I highly recommend this supplier to anyone looking for a reliable used engine. Would definitely buy from them again. They took care of me in about 15-20 mins and the loaded it for me. Can never go wrong at the right place.
Great experience all around. They worked with me. Let me see multiple motors. Opened them up so I could inspect. Would definitely recommend and use again.
Very easy people to deal with. I have bought numerous engines from them and have had no issues what so ever! They were even willing to help me years after I bought one of the engines with finding an invoice when someone rear ended my car and totaled my vehicle. They will be my one stop shop with everything JDM motors and transmissions!
i have honestly dealt with many used auto parts locations and have never been pleased but JDM Orlando has been the exception. to start off i called Jim and told him what i was looking for and a week later i made the drive to get a motor, trans and harness. due to my mistake i asked for the wrong part. jim was more than understanding and let me swap the parts for the correct ones. AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE. they had patience with me finding the right engine i wanted. they went above and beyond. i will be coming back and recommending them. thanks to Jim and the JDM Orlando Team for their help and knowledge
My experience was absolute A1. They showed me around the entire warehouse and explained all of the specs on anything i was inquisitive on. They were extremely kind and knowledgeable. I was in and out within a hour. I’ll forever be grateful for this service they offer. I highly recommend these guys for your motors and transmissions!!
I can’t say enough great things about this team. Their customer service is outstanding, every person I spoke with was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely eager to help. They answered all my questions with confidence and made the entire experience feel easy and welcoming. You can tell they truly care about their customers. I’ll definitely be coming back for any additional parts I need.
JDM Orlando provided an outstanding customer experience, effectively navigating a logistical challenge. I experienced an initial setback when the wrong engine was delivered for my Kia. However, Jim from the team addressed the issue with impressive speed and professionalism. He quickly secured and dispatched the correct engine, successfully mitigating any substantial delay. The rapid resolution and attention to detail confirm my high recommendation for JDM Orlando and their commitment to customer satisfaction
Definitely recommend this place, it has been my go to for all my car needs and they never disappoint. Excellent customer service, quality parts and always willing to go above and beyond, thank you Jim and staff!
I had a great experience with JDM Engine Orlando! They really helped me out with everything from start to finish and made sure I got a solid, reliable engine. The team was professional, honest, and went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. My engine runs great and I couldn’t be happier with the service. Highly recommend these guys if you’re looking for quality parts and good people to work with.
I bought a transmission from JDM Orlando for my Acura TSX, and honestly, this whole experience has been nothing but stress.
At first, they told me they had a 2012 Acura TSX transmission, but when I went to pick it up, they said it wouldn’t work because of the cooler system in the newer models and gave me a 2010 transmission instead. I later found out from multiple mechanics that the 2012 would’ve actually fit my K24Z3 engine perfectly.
Now this 2010 transmission only drives in manual mode, and it revs hard on third gear without shifting. Sometimes it doesn’t shift at all — I have to pull over, turn the car off, or switch to neutral and back to drive just to get it to move.
I’ve spent time and money replacing solenoids, sensors, and oil pressure switches, and had three different mechanics check it. Every single one told me the transmission itself is bad.
What makes it worse is how they handled the situation, it really feels like they just gave me the older unit to get rid of inventory instead of giving me what actually worked.
Can confirm if you buy a rotary engine from them it may work. (Don’t expect long term reliablity from a used rotary engine) so for what it’s worth I put one of their motors in my 2005 rx8. And she will get me around till my blown motor is rebuilt. Very good pricing I may got back for another just for parts for another another engine. If your a rotary in a pickle these guys are an affordable alternative. Tho rebuild your blown motor or save up to buy a new one as for the money you shouldnt be asking for more. Perfect place to get your rotary running till your other rotary can run.
I bought the engine for Subary. It was in an excellent condition. And guys work very gentle and fast. If you need any parts I would recommend you first check here.
Great customer service. Very courteous, professional. They had what i need fast. Awesome place highly recommend to anyone who needs engines,transmission and what ever else the stock. Thanks to Jim for helping me out.
Engine missing AC compressor. Bought an engine from them 7 years ago and was included. Compresso was in sell picture, assumed they’d be there for 1900$ Don’t know what’s changed. Will call shop tomorrow and see what is said.
Update: Jim said he’ll send over a compressor! Thankfully cause the things are fricking expensive!
Just got a k24 engine! Not only they help me out and got my engine in my car smooth as butter but they gave me some advice with the k24! Forgot the guys name but he’s A1 in the JDM business! Will be coming back for the transmission very soon! Thanks for the great customer service! Ps* first time there, came all the way from Wesley Chapel!!!!
My father purchased an engine for my vehicle from this place. It was said that this engine was good with low mileage and had been checked. Come to find out this engine has been overheated with damage to different parts of it. That being said, the owner does not want to apply the warranty because my mechanic “voided” it by opening it up to check to make sure the engine wasn’t blown after finding numerous signs of abuse and overheating. All of it was confirmed once my mechanic was able to open it up. Very disappointed with the quality of this company and their ability to help satisfy their customers from the companies wrong doing. I am involved in the South Florida car scene in a variety of ways and was hoping to share a wonderful experience with my friends. When I did that for my paint guy he got 25+ customers from my recommendation to the car community. Wish I could say I would do the same for this company, but after all the hassle and refusal to assist I will not be doing so. However, I will be sure to share my negative experience to my fellow car lovers so they do not have to experience the same thing we did. On top of all this the owner has been very disrespectful and condescending to my father. Attached is a photo of my dad’s receipt as well as some images of the engine.
I bought a used JDM K20 Si transmission, it shipped out the same day, tracking was provided, secured safely on a pallet and wrapped with plastic. The trans is very clean and works well. Great seller and I’ll be back for sure. Thank you!
Quite pleased with my experience with this vendor. Polite and helpful in the ordering process. I got my engine and transmission in 3 or 4 days and it was in amazing shape. I did hit a few snags in having to swap some stuff over but Jim was happy to compensate me for the extra cost. If I need another JDM engine or transmission they will be my first call, highly recommend!!!!
