Dude.. the 2JZ MkIII on that site is all "JDM this" and "JDM that". Don't they know that the US/UK [export] version of the 2JZ is BETTER than the Jap Spec one? The only thing better that the JSpec 2JZ has is a MAP sensor rather than MAF. US spec injectors are bigger, and are low impedance, which are higher quality than the JDM high impedance injectors. The US spec cams are more aggressive, and the turbochargers are also able to take more abuse [thanks to steel wheels vs. Japanese ceramic].
JDM throttle body and intake manifold? JDM head and block? You don't say...
:eek:

well if you must know, i changed over to us cams, injectors, harness, etc before the swap. i chose to keep the jdm turbos, because when i pulled them they were bigger than the US, the manifold also looked better flowing, after using them i am glad i stuck with them, i ran about 24 psi on 110 judt about everyday for 6 months, then 20 psi everyday on 93 without a problem, after 2 years of abuse i went single sold them to my buddy and has been running 19psi for about 6 months. my jdm intake manifold already had the egr removed stock. it has slight differnces...

The accronym JDM was used to accuratly describe the actual parts that were in the car, not to brag.
