Most engines imported from Japan are either removed from wrecks in salvage yards (as in the U.S.), or removed from vehicles turned in due to excessive government taxes.

The Japanese government encourages its citizens to purchase new vehicles in order to stimulate new car sales and promote overall economic growth in Japan. The Japanese government creates tax schedules that make it increasingly difficult to justify used car ownership. This explains the high turnover and Japanese “Take-Out” engines exported to other countries. The used engine business in Japan is characterized by many salvage yards and holding yards, stocking engines either inside warehouses or out in the elements. Since mileage verification is difficult to obtain once the engine has been pulled, the process of selecting desired engines is difficult.

JARCO sources and stocks only the best hand picked engines and transmissions from Japan and the U.S. Since all applications are not available in Japan, we rely on domestic salvage partners who allow us to verify mileage via CARFAX before purchase.
