I have heard of JDM engines on here--how many sources are there?

Anyone had good or bad stories about them?

There is a JDM place in Pattersen/Patterson NJ much closer to you.

 

I've still never done a JDM.

Not sure, probably want to do your homework first. It seems I remember seeing some posts where the engines are not necessarily plug and play electrically (sensor types etc). Also maybe has something to do with various emission requirements? A main thing is...if you had EGR.

I would not look at a place with only 11 feedbacks. there are many more out there which are trusted, JHot, etc come to mind.

Do NOT get a twin turbo jdm, they won't work. Also, be aware you will have to reuse a USDM intake and the sensors associated with for the most part

you can just buy a $900 EJ25 from me with the headgaskets already replaced.

 

JDM - still has the original head gaskets on it, not a good value in my opinion.
