Buyer Beware! I purchased a Subaru Long Block engine from Sunwest to replace my daughter’s blown engine in her Forester. After having the new engine from Sunwest installed, within an hour of driving out of the shop, we noticed a rattling sound coming from the engine, and the Check Engine Light flashing. I called Sunwest, and was told that before they could do anything, we would have to replace the oil solenoid, which fixed the problem 99% of the time. It did not fix the problem, but it did give me another part and labor to p... read more

I had sunwest rebuild engine for me and engine failed at less the 900 miles during break-in process and speaking with a rude person about this his name is Nick F********** he told me they wouldn't warranty engine. I asked to speak with his boss and he told me there wasn't anyone I asked who is his boss and told me not to worry about it he is in charge now. so in short I paid $4800+ on a engine that did not last even 900 miles during break-in process and Nick F********** told me I'm out of luck.

Haven't even bought anything from them yet but am very excited to do so. Just a call with Brian and I'm already convinced. He could have pitched me on something very pricey, or sold me something less stout than I really need. Instead he talked to me about my experience with my car, how I like to drive, what mods I might eventually put on it, and addressed how his process mitigates the problems I've experienced up to this point. Really looking forward to doing business with them, wish I had known about them 2 years ago when I... read more

I had a head gasket go in my 04 Sti, it was up there in miles so i asked around and was eventually pointed to Sunwest by a trusted mechanic. He was not wrong. I had them did a full rebuild with forged internals and had the repair shop do the install. Everyone at both locations was professional and answered every question i had. I live 140 miles away and they we very helpful in that regard too. The only problem i had was an exhaust leak at the manifold but that problem was addressed as quickly as possible by the repair shop. ... read more

I am satisfied with my short block that i ordered back in July 2019. My other motor spun a bearing and was looking for options and kept running across JDM Engines unit a search result brought me to the Sunwest Automotive page. Engine came nicely crated and wrapped up with instructions and tips on what and what not to do and how to break in the motor. Sending my core back was a breeze as these guys were extremely helpful to include Nick the internet sales rep. I assembled my motor back and had my car running again by the midd... read more

Rebuilt the heads on my Subaru FB25 engine. Work was great and professional. Very helpful, knowledgeable and responsive. Got my heads rebuild and back to me in less than a week. The most important thing is that these guys respond right way when you have any questions or concerns.

Quick response, knowledge employees. New short block from them runs great. My only regret is not calling them sooner, I could have saved a lot of money.
