Well, it starts with a J though....hmmmm...
Why would it have been shipped over though? was there a huge demand for 94 lx 5 speeds???
second question, while there is a certain "cool factor" it is actually a good thing that it was made in Japan??
cheers

Some ppl might say that J-Vin cars are less prone to mechanical problems in certain categories. Your results may vary; if the orignal owner was a smuck.........

From personal experience ones made in Japan are put together better. Fit and finish is nicer and I think engine tolerances are closer. My parents used to own a 91 SE and 92 EX, the SE was made in Japan and it felt faster although they were the same engine and overall seemed to be made better.
