Get the JDM if you can afford it; higher comp will help; especially if you are going all motor...USDM heads are the same as JDM, so if you can get a good deal on a JDM shortblock, and then find a deal on a USDM head, you are set...add cams etc...
just my $.02 worth...

Go jdm I would if I could afford it. Better compression ratio, less miles on it than you would probably in the good ole US of A and probably cheaper anyways junkyards are super expensive( at least where I live).
