I got 1993 JDM FD and running into little issues trying to finding parts. I know Gen 3 covers from 93-99/00, but how universal are the parts?

My rad just went wondering if 93+ years parts will fit the 1993? or what year did Gen 3 do some changes?

I think i found the answer that 1993 to 95 share same components and 96 -1999/2000 changed slightly. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I believe the differences are minor and involve the wiring and the twins. Are you planning on keeping her stock or would you mind upgrading a few things

Planning on keeping mostly stock, just for reference in trying to locate parts. Very slim up here in Canada.

Not sure... but are canadian cars RHD? You mentioned it being JDM, so is your car RHD? I know several of the US market car(LHD) parts are different than the RHD's

GreyGT-C,



Your are correct, my FD is JDM and is RHD. I hope parts are not too different, trying to track down Right Side door handle/ passenger side, as mine broke. And I hope the radiators are the same as I just ordered aftermarket one as OEM just went.



PS- nice ride.

I see no reasons why the radiator would be different. I beleive the main differences are the pre-cat/DP since the steering column goes down on the exhaust side, and some differences with the ABS and Braking system. Other than that... it's mostly the interior pieces of the car.

I'm not sure exactly how close nova scotia is to the US but the website I gave you for Banzai racing has a lot of these parts you're requesting
