What are the CEL codes? I'd be inclined to think the distributer is the problem, considering you just said it doesn't match with the engine.

Also, JDM and USDM aren't just plug and play. There will be electronical differences and mechanical differences to some aspects.

The USDM dizzy has no crank sensor. Its on the front timing pulley on the 97 H22. The JDM H22 has the crank sensor built into the dizzy.
