As far as I know, there is no difference in the motors...they are all japanese...with the exception of the Chrystler motor

and what kind of car is it? RS, GS, GST, GSX?????
RS AND GS have 420a and are not prone to CW

The JDM cars are different the reason the 7 bolt motors here have trouble is because Chryster actually built them not mitsu

You can only tell by the number of bolts on the flywheel. Im pretty sure that ALL eclipses were made in the US and shipped off to Japan. I thought exactly the same as you and i was proven wrong by multiple people.
