First off here is a pic of the whole engine bay There is the throttle body there is no vaccum coming off of it. If you look at another GE you would see the diff No EGR on the back if the intake manifold no external EGR if there was one. No internal EGR if there was one. This is confusing it has a cold start injector but I thought JDM doesn't have them. So what you guys think
must be. its not a usdm at least man show me all your vacuum routing your missing the pipe from the exhaust manifold (even though they can be plugged...like mine) you dont have the egr where a plate would be if its removed and u dont have the plate theres just nothing... and obviously no egr and vacuum lines... so enjoy but seriously draw me up how everything is routed, get me a pic of the water neck well the front on angle i mean ;p
I vote its jdm because the EGR is not there. Also, when I got my JDM motor, the cam covers wer also painted gold. My US 3sge had a white/silver color. Congrats.
i have no egr as well. but he has absolutely no signs of any possible egr hookups.... make me a diagrahm damn u
BTW, looks like your O2 sensor is cut. replace it if it has a us ECU. If its got a jdm ecu, dont worry about it or block it.
well, mines gold plated but looks different to yours...? i dont know how to tell properly... id need someone to have a look in person and tell me heres mine if it helps at all:
truthfully i wouldnt have a clue. havent paid much attention to it hey... it was on there when i got it but ill have a look 2moz when i get a chance what would be the reasoning behind it when others dont have it there?
thats just like mine, dang, i thought i got ripped with the engine i got put in, looks like im the ripper!
