Hi,

I'm not sure about the car model codes but if these two are the 200hp versions then I am definitely interested.

Btw how do u know they are the JDM 200hp versions as it doesn't state it in the ad?

Thanks for your help.

Hmm ok. Thanks, will give them a ring to enquire more.

Hopefully there are JDM absolut owners here looking to sell so I don't need to go thru a dealer...

Hi c32b,

Here's an old post on how to identify a JDM Absolute.
http://www.shc-forum.com/viewtopic.php? ... highlight=
* 1st identification point on the exterior is the silver Absolute badges on the front door mouldings and on the tailgate. Next is the non-colour headlamp, Kah ones are blue. 18" rims.
* for the interior it's the half leather & blue fabric seats, no headrest for 2nd row centre passenger, 180km/h speedometer etc.

And this is a Kah Absolute with JDM Absolute badges. Giveaway signs are the full leather seats and built-in radio.

And here's a JDM RB3:

Not that common to find a JDM Absolute in the used car market, I chance upon mine through Classified last Oct. Happy Absolute shopping!

For Japan 200hp models other than the uprated engine, is the transmission the same as regular Ody's? or are the transmissions the same on both?

The gear ratios are the same.

The suspension is stiffer for the JDM model.

Can anyone tell me why choose JDM when it's electronically limited to 180 ?

Who limits it? Honda Japan? LTA?

Main Differences :
The Absolute uses the k24A2 engine, the EXV uses the K24A1,

ENGINE OUTPUT
K24A1
HP 160 @ 6500RPM
Comp Ratio 9.6:1
Displacement 2354cc

K24A2
HP 200 @ 6800RPM
Comp Ratio 10.5:1
Displacement 2354cc

The key difference lies in the top block design with the K24A2 using more agressive cam profiles combined with EGR porting and triple cam lobes on both the exhaust and intake ends.

This allows much better high end flow with power which continues to build until 6800rpm giving 200bhp.

Kindly read...

see so many Honda other model owner rebuilding and upgrading their engines,
if the tranny can take it, might be a good mid-life upgrade to undertake to give the car a second-life!

how much would the upgrades ( top block design agressive cam profiles combined with EGR porting and triple cam lobes on both the exhaust and intake ends) cost? Are "drop in" alternatives considering that the engine is old now and there are alot of similar parts compared to faster Honda models?

Look at the chassis plate within the engine bay.It should have the word "Absolute" on it.
Hope it helps.
