jdm vs. us spec
I've read a whole bunch of stuff on here about jdm motors. Conclusion: don't buy jdm motor to drop in, rebuild it first. JDM and US Spec blocks are the same but bolt-ons are different.
Here's the question, my car already came with a jdm motor, what's the big deal if its jdm or us? Is jdm motor more powerful, has more hp? Different turbo set up? |
The short blocks are the same.....
|
but is there a power difference?
|
96 to 02 yes
|
Which series?
*edit* Unholy beat me to it. :cockblock |
NO, there is no power difference. Some models made 280 hp instead of 255 because they ran a downpipe and slightly higher boost. The engines are the same. All the accessories are the same. The only differences are the rat's nest and more advanced ecu on 96+ cars.
