i was wondering what the difference in front ends between jdm crx's and usdm crx's?

 

They got like 50 more hp .

No. It's the turn signals. But then you need the lights to fit it properly...then the filler panel...then the hood...then the fenders.

IMO: Not worth it and played out.

EDIT: Oh and I forgot...you also need to modify your rad support a bit to close the hood and make it latch. Since we EF lovers have such ******* gay *** hood latches, it's a ******* bitch to get it to line up. We dented the **** out of my brother JDM EF9 hood getting it to shut at the track. The next day he wanted to trade his JDM front end for a black USDM front end, he said he would do the work so the hassle wasn't there, but he never did. It's getting painted soon so we will fix it all.

 

is there a difference in headlights?

 

They are bigger. They are physically a taller, wider headlight.

 

USDM:



JDM:



Differences:
- front bumper
- radiator support; "T-BAR" section only
- headlights & clear corner lights
- amber bumper lights
- metal hood
- OEM fenders with side markers

 

The jdm one differs by it being 2 inches longer than the usdm model. It has as pictured above a 2nd large air vent opening in the upper section, and is made to fit with the different shaped jdm headlights and rad support.

 

Here's a pic of the front part together if your doing a swap.

 

my fiance's (schwanginpt) CRXs: USDM front on the left, JDM front on the right.
