Product Details

The DENSO 280-5320 First Time Fit® Remanufactured Starter Motor delivers factory-original cranking performance backed by DENSO's decades of OEM electrical engineering expertise. DENSO's gear-reduction starter design is an industry benchmark — so robust and powerful it is frequently adapted for motorsport and racing applications.

Every unit in the First Time Fit® remanufactured line goes through a rigorous multi-stage inspection and rebuild process, resulting in some of the lowest return rates in the replacement starter market. Components are not simply cleaned and resold — they are tested, refinished, or replaced to exacting specifications before the finished unit is bench-tested to verify factory-level output.

Remanufacturing Process Highlights:

  • Armature cleaned and high-voltage tested to confirm reliable electrical performance
  • Field coil inspected and high-voltage tested
  • Solenoid coil 100% voltage tested
  • Commutator polished, gauged, and performance-validated
  • Pinion gear inspected and replaced as needed to meet OE engineering specifications
  • Housing re-tapped to OE standards and inspected for heat warping, corrosion, and surface alignment issues
  • All terminal bolts replated or replaced with premium copper for a clean, reliable electrical connection
  • All-new bearings, brushes, and seals installed on every unit
  • Every finished starter bench-tested to ensure factory-original performance output

Key Benefits:

  • Maximum cranking torque under all operating conditions
  • Compact, lightweight gear-reduction design — a class leader in size-to-power ratio
  • Engineered to perform reliably in both extreme cold and high-heat environments
  • Environmentally responsible choice — recycles valuable components and raw materials

The DENSO 280-5320 is a direct-fit replacement designed for straightforward installation. Choosing a DENSO First Time Fit® remanufactured starter means getting OEM-quality reliability at an aftermarket value.

All good!

The turbo (s475sx-e) has been my best purchase this year. The order was placed at the end of the workday and Thmotorsports shipped it the very next morning, also the box arrived in magnificent condition, the turbo was picture perfect without a blemish. Thmotorsports was the most affordable out of all ten sites that were considered, with top notch shipping. I have to say Thmotorsports was the best choice for my genuine part.

Great Seller. And Fast Shipping.

Very easy to deal with. All of the products showed up NIB as promised, and the delivery was very quick. Would certainly use these folks again.

WAS VERY EASY TO PLACE AN ORDER, WILL WAIT FOR DELIVERY!

Quick and easy

Easy to navigate

No problem with ordering and having the items ground shipped to a forwarding company (I am based in the UK)
