I've heard the difference in ratios is all speculation and never proven. The only difference is the bellhousing having the clutch and/or starter (cant remember which) on the driver side.
Maybe larger bearings also?
I might be wrong about ratios, i've never investigated it myself, but it is what i've heard from some quite reliable sources.

ra28 is right...jdm t50 has the clutch slave on the drivers side...as to ratio's i've been told the jdm is a bit tighter but the exact ratio im not sure off...i'll have a look around. I spoke with AK about this so he'd prolly be able to give you exact ratios

i'm pretty sure that there are no differences in ratios, bill sherwoods site has the ratios (listed as standard) i had a jap box with the exact same ratios, difference in the gearing comes from the standard lsd having a 4.4:1 (think) as opposed to the open aussie 3.9:1.
bell housing is different, thats all.

ok. here's the deal.
the only difference is the bellhousing.
bearings, gears....all the same.
stock ratio's, are as follows, though this is straight out of the Bible, which you actually have, Garth.
1st - 3.587
2nd - 2.022
3rd - 1.384
4th - 1.000
5th - 0.861
Rev - 3.484
if you dont believe me, check on page 61
as for being the same JDM/Aus....part no's are the same, according to my EPC, excluding the bellhousing of course...
(edit) JDM has 4.3:1 final, Aus is 3.9:1.
mine is 4.6:1
btw, matty, can you get your mate to give me a call about those struts, i need them ASAP...cheers!
