What is the difference between JDM b16a and Australia. Are all oil seals and gaskets the same? I have tried find head gasket kit however the seller said I can't use that because my motor is Jdm spec. anyone can help? Thanks

I think the piston same. It use PR3. I bought the jdm version and I doubt about the part from that engine. Is that same or not. My plan far make Ls-vtec

Im pretty sure the AUDM uses PR3 pistons and the JDM uses P30 pistons

yup correct ZeForce :thumbsup:. When looking at the Bottom end of my Japspec B16A noticed the pistons were different to the AUDM one that was sitting next to it.

Ok, that is about piston. How about intake manifold and exhaust? Is it same pattern bolt?

I think...


JDM B16A from EF8, EF9 & '92 JDM Integra all use PR3.

JDM B16A found in EF8, EF9 & DA6-Xsi are interchangeable with PW0.

B16A from Gen3 CRX Del Sol & EG SiR is P30.
