My brother once tried to ship me some pretty shells, I can't remember what their called, but it's the ones people blow into like a horn. Anyways he mailed me some and marked fragile in very big letters EVERYWHERE on the box. When I got it, it looked like everyone at UPS had kicked it. Only two shellls survived. It really pissed me off then, so I can feel your pain abut a 1jz. Hope everything works out for the best...........lol

That sucks. They should just refund you the entire cost I would say, of the motorset and shipping. Thats just BS.

My 1J had a crushed oilpan from shipping, also a nice sized hole in it. My first step, I contacted who I bought it from (Jhot), they simply refunded me the cost to repair it, they said it would get us both nowhere if they tried getting money from the shipping company over it.
