JDM ENGINES: UNDER 50,000 MILE MYTH

[@carib2703]

Mileage is registered on the transmission. Engine is hours. Living in Japan back in the early 2000s, I traveled from Atsugi Naval base to Yokota Air base by car with a total of about 25 kilometers distance on the transmission but the engine was running for 3hours in traffic. So imagine doing this drive daily one way at 125 kilometers a week but car was running for 15hrs which is about a trip from Georgia to New York with about 1000 miles or about 1600 kilometers. Just an FYI.

Amazing comment.

[@speedboy623]

“Miles” is always just an average, a means of measuring if you will. But what you said is 100% correct we should start putting “hr” meters on cars.

[@NotSoCrazyNinja]

I kind of wish American automakers would have an hours meter on cars along with mileage. The miles only tell a part of the story. Adding in the hours the engine has run gives a better idea of the wear and tear on the engine and car as a whole. Still not the whole story, but better than just miles. Would be great too if automakers would have some kind of "statistics" built into the ECU that would measure various things like the highest RPM the engine has seen, the highest speed the car has gone, the highest temperature it has seen, and so forth.

[@austinatkins408]

There are hour meters on new ram trucks.. You could always get a dirt bike hour meter and put it on your car/truck etc. to keep track, they’re cheap too. I wouldn’t worry much about idle hours in traffic.. it’s the “under load” times that would be of most importance, hence the odometer, instead of hours.

I just put a JDM engine in a 03 Honda Civic. It was sold as a block, head and oil pan. It ran for 5 seconds and the cam gear fell off and bent just one intake valve. I yanked the head, replaced the one valve and the engine runs great now. Word to the wise, check everything and if timing belt driven, replace belt, waterpump and tensioner.

[@joshdane5657]

I put a jdm b20b in my civic and snapped the timing belt and bent a bunch of valves. Got a head from the junkyard and took it to the machine shop now it runs great and been going 5 plus years! The engine was so clean on the inside when I got it. Sucks if I would of put a belt on it when I first got it b4 I put it in the car it would of saved me alot of time,money, and trouble!

[@jasona39]

Pollution is a major concern in Japan. That is the reason engines are replaced with relatively low miles there. Plus they do a lot of idling in traffic. A worn engine will pollute more, especially when idling so they replace it with a newer engine.

I don't know the answers to the dilemma, but it seems to me the powers that be want everyone to believe that pollution is a worse problem than our landfills getting filled with batteries. I'm thinking acid, run-off, water supply. I don't see how replacing one issue with another is beneficial. Electric IMO is not the answer. Now Hydrogen? I don't know anything about them.

[@BaldVulture87]

The point you missed/overlooked is how hard that inspection is to pass, its not like you pay and you're good there is actual smog emissions and all that stuff, the older the car is the tighter the regulation becomes. so as a result many engine in the 50000-75000 miles range don't pass smog and are either taken out of the car itself or the car is scrapped altogether and the engines are shipped. is it possible for engines with 120000 miles to pass emissions? yes it is, but very rare, so in general they have low miles. still better off with a swap rather then a rebuild if you're on a budget.

[@MITONFILMS]

It is. Trust me. As long as you do it right!

[@mikenikes3482]

i imported a 2jz with a with a sticker that said 32000km which is about 19,000 miles. when the engine arrived it was in amazing condition. I looked over every seal and nothing was leaking. Even the oem black engine paint wasn't chipped like higher mile 2jz usually are. the engine was is in such great shape that the heat shield and bolts cover the twin turbos weren't even rusted. Its all luck of the draw i guess

[@16ValveVtec]

if your importer buys front clips then you pretty much guaranteed mileage, hmotorsonline gets clips atleast for itrs/ctrs. another thing is hmo selects the best honda engines (specific market) vs other importers which sell all makes engines (subaru,nissan,toyota,mitsubishi etc) and they could care less about quality.

I just wanted to vouch HMO for my purchase on an H23A Bluetop last week. Steve is awesome as well as the staff! They had the valve cover removed in order for me to inspect the cams and lobes and overall the head's condition and a compression test all right before purchasing. 235psi and above on all four cylinders and I was sold. Yet, that doesn't mean you should neglect your basic wear-and-tear components prior to installing it back in to your car (Crank oil seals, timing belt, timing belt tensioner, and even the valve cover gasket).

[@sotsadboy671]

JCI is usually what kills owning a car in Japan. The insurance is usually twice the price of a car especially if its an old car because of liability of the road. Hence why a lot of old car are usually sitting in the junk yards with very low miles. When I was stationed there, people would sell their cars for dirt cheap just so they don't have to pay for the insurance to get it back on the road. Hence why military people usually import skylines, supras, ae86 when their time is up in Japan, they can avoid paying the JCI and just get the car shipped over to their next duty station for free then just register is stateside. I've had friends who have brought 91 hatchbacks and r32 skylines for less than 5k because you are allowed to ship one vehicle with you for free when you transfer.

[@mrniceguy7168]

“Check it out…it’s kind of crappy actually” Hilarious.

[@TheJoteeter]

To be fair they do say "average mileage". So the implication is some are more some are less. But I agree this estimate can't be true. I think sometime in the past this may have been true. Probably 5-10 years ago. But as time goes on all the mileages go up and the engine sellers just never bothered to update their estimates. Just look at the used car prices over in Japan. The type r especially holds its value well so in most cases it makes sense to sell the car rather than part it out. It's likely only the cars with higher mileages or accident damage get scrapped.

[@SpenserRoger]

Jonathan Teeter Jr. no they were lying back then too. I know because I used to do engine swaps as a side job and most of my work came from ripping out JDM engines that were NFG from the beginning.

[@dr.mohammed1502]

I was always told this was true about 50,000 miles because that Japan has super bad problems with smog and when cars get older and more miles on them that they fail emissions test and put off too much exhaust and they don't wanna polute the air anymore than it is.. that's probably why they cut their cars off at Red lights not to save gas but to cut down on emissions and smog

100k km is = to 62k US miles so about 60k miles is the average that most of their engines see, but I agree that if you don't pull the motor/transmission yourself you won't know for sure, also used items in japan tend to be of a lot less value so a used engine is usually cheaper. but to lessen your chances of getting a bad motor I like to pull the Valve cover and inspect the the head, if it's got a burned on dark brown/black oil color walk away from it, if it's golden or shiny looking your more likely to get a better taken care of motor that had the oil changes done on time, also don't run the motor with the timing belt that comes with a jdm motor, if the average motors sees 60k US miles, thats about when the t belt should be replaced, so I would say just change it for peace of mind, especially while the motor is out of the car it's a lot easier.

[@michaelfreeman9275]

Japan is a small country so it makes sense that car are driven less distance than In America. My Jdm sti engine still had the factory timing belt which would mean most likely it's under 62000km since that's the change interval. The most important thing when buying a Jdm engine is warranty and compression test video.

Im sure most importers do falsely advertise, but from dealing with hmotorsonline personally i can tell you that a majority of steves listings are dead on accurate since most of his motors are pulled from at least the front clip if not the whole car by his mechanics at his shop.

[@ONEBADZ]

Here's a question...so every year these cars in Japan need to get an inspection. I would think at the time of inspection the vehicles Vin is recorded and likely displayed mileage on the odometer right?? This should tie the mileage @ that time to the vehicle. When vehicle goes to the wrecking yard or whatever I imagine the Vin would be recorded into their inventory somehow. Is there no way to tie that engine then to said vehicle or paper trail mentioning the last recorded mileage?? I mean I'm not saying this 50k mile thing isn't a myth but why are they not ensuring the mileage on the engines accurate to their descriptions when selling. It really doesn't seem like it would be that challenging. There will of course be cases where clusters are swapped or something so mileage isn't verifiable but I'd guess that wouldn't be a normal occurrence.

[@MITONFILMS]

ONE_BAD_Z yeah thats probably true..but who knows where they get their engines from? I do know they buy dozens at a time and i feel like this is just a way for them to cut corners and just tell us....."yeah it has about 50k miles lol" (which of course sounds better than 200k)

[@emjay8161]

@@MITONFILMS I don't think anyone's saying there's a law, but the rumor (as I heard it from a friend) is that there's a lot of traffic, cars run longer because they sit in that traffic, so mileage doesn't build up, even though the cars are running, so the alleged story is that they change their engines more often than most for 2 reasons: 1) the engines have more wear and tear at 50,000 miles than one would think. So to me it's actually a good practice. Think about all the people in LA traffic. Their cars have far more wear and tear than the mileage would indicate. 2) The more miles, the more pollution a car emits, so they're doing it for their environment. I guess the bottom line is the video did nothing to warn or distract me from looking into engines with less than 50,000 miles. And it really seemed like the guy who made this video contradicted himself - or maybe I misunderstood - but honestly I don't care enough.

Im stuck people, I have a 2000 ek hatch, dunno if i should k swap or b?? I can get a k20a2 full engine 6 speed box lsd and loom for $2300 witch is really cheap, or source a b16b and turbo it?? #helpabrotherout

[@MITONFILMS]

+No ToMaTo never go b16...you will regret it. B swaps 'can' be cheap and K swaps are expensive....

[@princemurphh4696]

So is H motors still good to buy from ?

[@MITONFILMS]

Prince Murphh i highly recommend them.

[@princemurphh4696]

Miton Films thanks fam because I still haven't decided if I want a hatch or just a sedan because I'm going to get a b18 swap and turbo

[@MITONFILMS]

Prince Murphh hatch will be more fun...but if you need 4 drs. Sedan will be just as fun.

[@jefffalstrom4282]

apparently the 4-door integra is more balanced and handles better than the hatch. i don't know if it's true, as i've never owned a sedan integra. even if it's true.. the sedan just doesn't look right to me. it's too ugly

[@MistrMcGill]

right on, good chit

U have to crazy to think it’s under 50k lol

[@jshjjs209]

As a Chinese, I have the same habit as the Japanese that I will sell my car if the odometer reaches 90,000 km. I won’t consider buying any used cars that are over 60,000km.

[@lotz-o-muzic1608]

i thought ot was better to have a weathered engine

[@Phar2Rekliss]

depends on how well built the engine is, There was tests done by Honda on NSX-R engines, and their results on engines that had over 200,000km showed that all the tolerances in the bearings and other wearing part locations showed no losses meaning no loss in power over the wear. But then again those R engines are hand built each and Honda is known for setting the Bar on the industry as having the highest quality bearings and tightest tolerances of all Manufactures.
