The demand nobody stocked ten years ago
Korean cars were a minority of the parc in most of our markets until the 2010s. They are not any more, and the workshops that service them have been buying replacement engines from whoever could find them.
That is the gap. Japanese-platform engines are contested by every supplier in the trade; Hyundai and Kia engines are thinner on the ground and the buyer is less price-sensitive because the alternative is waiting.
Grade A on Korean petrol blocks
We are conservative about what earns Grade A: only engines supplied as removed from the vehicle (what is fitted varies by unit and shows in each engine's photos) are offered. Each engine is cleaned, handled and looked over, and its crankshaft is turned by hand with a tool to confirm that the mechanism rotates. It is then photographed from every side, and the photos go into your order file as "Engine 1", "Engine 2", "Engine 3" and so on.
What the check covers: a manual crankshaft rotation check and an individual photo record. It is not a compression, leak-down, bench or running test, so on its own it does not prove how an engine will run once installed.

Which Hyundai and Kia models are in the published catalogue?
Seven: G4FA, G4FC, G4FG, G4KA, G4KD, G4KE and G4NA — covering the Gamma, Theta II and Nu families — each with a published per-unit price. Availability moves week to week, so it is confirmed per model in each quotation.
Can you source a Hyundai or Kia model outside the published list?
Contact sales with the model and quantity for a commercial enquiry. Models outside the seventeen published ones are not a standing offer; if one can be sourced, availability and price are confirmed in the quotation.
Is the process the same as for the Toyota families?
Yes — the same Grade A selection, the same manual crankshaft rotation check and individual photo record, and the same 30 / 70 payment structure, whatever the brand.
