I hear you get more accel out of the JDM one.
IE: JDM is built for performance, and the US is built for better fuel consumption?
How can you tell the diff between the two? I need to get a new tranny and was looking into the JDM one....
THANKS!

I have the JDM one installed in my car. Found this out during a rebuild a few years ago The only difference I know of is 5th gear is taller. Maybe other parts are strengthened per the older posts. Don't know but this could be why I haven't blown it up with the 20B. Am going to swap it out soon though for a T56.

It means the fifth gear might actually be useful on a circuit though, but only if you've got very high power.

There is a lot of bullshit in this thread.
Here are the facts:
Five speed JDM FD's with 17" wheels from the factory have a .762 fifth and 4.3:1 diff. The sole exceptions to the rule were the first two versions of the black RZ....these had 16" wheels and the above ratios.
The five speed JDM FD's with factory fitted 16" wheels had a .806 fifth gear with a 4.1:1 diff.
