Can you identify this engine?
Recently bought a 92 Civic DX that had a 30k mile engine from Japan swapped in. The code on the engine block is D15B, with no number following the B. Some others on another forum said it was just a straight D15B then, but it doesn't look like one:
Anyone know what this engine is exactly?

thats not the jdm d15 vtec motor, or the jdm d15 vtec-e. its just the jdm d15b. same as the usdm d15b7 basically, a DX replacement motor that was built and sold in japan. hella clean though.
