Starter motor Denso or Bosch

I installed an OE Denso starter made in Japan. There the best for the 7.3

Always try to get quality brands like Bosch. They always seem to last forever and they replace anything that is worn internally too so you can almost guarantee it will last.

The denso on my 02 4Runner started having issues at 255k. Replaced the brushes with new oem and it was good to go afterwards!

Had a denso starter on my integra quit, 263k Good stuff

I just bought a new Denso Remanufactured starter from Rock Auto for my Type S. I even broke the thing and they sent me another one before even seeing it.

New starter (Bosch) (Late 2017)

Honda/Acura OEM starters are very quality parts (manufactured by Denso), and typically when they stop working it's just a ~20 dollar brush kit and some elbow grease to get them up and running again. Definitely better than aftermarket replacement parts.

Denso does make re-manufactured starters for that model but they are a bit pricey.

The Denso part number for the starter is: 280-6006. Do not use a generic one from the parts store. Denso is the only brand I would use for starters.

Go for the reman Bosch. They should call it Neverlast or Durajunk
