How to find out if motor is JDM or USDM
im trying to pick up this motor from this one local guy, and he tells me its a jdm sr20de motor, but looks exactly like my usdm sr20de motor, is there a way to identify if its jdm or not...?

IIRC there is no difference in the blocks, just the heads (mostly EGR related)

why does it matter? Is he a ricer freak that thinks 'jdm' means 'more expensive?

some people (including myself) just like to know. sure it doesn't make a difference really, but the more info i can get on an engine, the better I feel.
