Which motors have interchangeable distributors with JDM D15

What motors can I rip for the correct distributor?
It's for a JDM d15b vtec-e motor.

JDM vtec-e = our VX motor d15z1

nothing special same power output, same power only difference is the flywheel on the JDM one is 2.5lbs lighter.

it also has a more radical cam, thus having the same hp as the d16 that we get. i just got my d15 in yesterday, and its looking very nice.

The JDM VTEC-E has a larger intake and TB than the USDM version. I used to have a JDM VTEC-E motor that I got set to me by mistake. I'm sure the power is the same but i'm not sure why it was larger.

Re: Which motors have interchangeable distributors with JDM D15 (nsxmatt)

the basic difference is in how the legs of the distributors are angled...vtec motors need to run vtec distributors...unless u wanna go rambo and chop off a leg...but this solution isnt reconmended....y get the vtec-e when u could just go for the d15b vtec 130ps???? like what i got......
