the jdm cars have a couple of little differences.

1. no aws

2. they dont have the electical solenoids on the acv

3. smaller airpump

4. no precat

5. the ecu and wiring harness goes into our drivers side footwell



if it matters a jdm fc will pass a tailpipe smog inspection

So if the JDM engine is basically the same is there any advantages to having it? Any disadvantages(ie its harder to repair or get parts for...)?

the actual engine is exactly the same. the only differences are in the emissions
