is there any difference between the jdm 100kw motor and the AUS spec one? im looking for a motor to put in my AE86. if yes are these differences big enough to spend $800+ on a jdm motor?
also what performance parts make this motor SCREAM. i was thinking the usual exhaust+filter, then some cams (what degree?) with a computer. any other tips?
also i will be drifting in this car if that helps.(thats the only reason i bought it  )
thanks

a stock 100kw 4age with slide around corners, but the only way u'll make it slide, unless ur a special driver, is with a LSD... get one, and have some fun
Aus spec 100kw had a knock sensor, i believe, didn't have a speed cut either, not sure about internals, but i can't see there being many differances...
Performance wise, exhaust and filter are part of the conversion into the AE86, but making the filter CAI and boxed is the main thing to look into, relocate the water overflow, and window washer bottle,
overflow fits next to battery
window washer - get one from a wrecker that would suit the location you want, or even better a JDM AE86 washer bottle, but $$$
get the motor running first, then get some cams, not any higher than 278 and some adjustable cam gears... and tune the damn thing,
also a main thing with these motors is gearing, i've heard JDM T50s have better shorter gearing compared to the long T50 aus spec gears, but don't qoute me on that.... also a T series rear end with a 4.1 or 4.3 will help out alot..

you wanna run 98 rom? go JDM..
you wanna run unleaded, go aussie...
other than that, I think the performance advantages are negligible, and go pickup whatever is cheapest...
Both are pretty old by now, and both have duds and gems..
rock on.
