You should really use the distributor that was made for the engine. You could face some problems down the road.

The USDM H22 and USDMH23 distributors are the SAME part. They BOTH have external coils. JDM H22 distributors are internal coil.

So if your H22 distributor is from a US H22...you should be fine. Also, the ODBI H22 and ODBII H22 distributors are DIFFERENT. You will need an ODBI dizzy.

Now, I would like to know if the F22 distributor can work. I am not sure if the SOHC and DOHC difference creates any issues.

Anyone know??
