are jspec engines good?

if you really like the low-end power, i guess the cyclone IM is nice i guess but the 2g manifold works and like Kracka said, its better off getting the engine rebuilt. My honda friends still think swapping my engine for a "japan" engine will be better....?????!!! LoL

Cause it's jdm, it's better...duh..lol. Honda guys also think their cars are fast, they're a delusional group of people.

In some cases a j-spec or jdm motor, can be better in slight ways. Most times not. Stock usdm 2jz's make more power than jdm 2jz's...but dsm motors are pretty similar, and using a stock usdm 6/7 bolt 4g63 is cheaper, and pretty similar. J-spec is just a fancier way of saying, this is gonna cost a bit more.

No, just no. What he meant to say is, a 1g manifold will work just fine.
