Yea the JDM aint bad. I believe its from an odyssey though since the accords there didn't come with f23's I think. I've been using my f23a for 4 years now i believe with no issues.

There is no such thing as a "JDM" F23


Sorry

So where exactly is the F23A from? The RHD importers and JDM depot's I talked to told me most of their f23's came form the Odyssey in Japan hence why most of their engines were auto. I could be wrong though. Just going by what I was told.

So why do they claim it as "JDM" on every engine-selling outlet? Just to attract swap-happy Civic fanboys? Not saying you're wrong at all, I would just prefer not to be lied to by these guys about where the literal heart of my car is coming from haha. This is like finding out Santa isn't real

same reason all the ebay sellers put JDM in the product names
just to make the items more popular
