What's up y'all I really need some advice on purchasing an engine. Should I go with a JDM b16 or a USDM ? what are the differences, and what are the pros and cons???? I have a dude that will sell me the jdm b16 changeover and install it for 2,700. What do you guys think? I've heard that jdm engines are hard to pass smog and that they are a litlle higher maintenance.

but even though the maintnance on a JDM b16 may be a buck or two higher you can really get speed out of them as well but not as much as with thfe USDM....
b16's are not really known for machanical problems anyhow unless u are extremely hard on ur vehicles......as far as racing and things its not an issue.
