So the headgaskets went in my 98 LGT and I'm consider just swapping the motor. If I'm going to go through the effort I'd like to upgrade. I'd love an STi EJ257 but I can't swing the $5K for just the motor that I see them going for.
I've noticed that JDM motors seem far more plentiful and lower cost than any of the USDM motor sets. however I'm in NH and we have to have an annual OBDII plugin check for emissions. Are there USDM comptuers that are compatible with certain model JDM engines to make this work, or other things I can do to pass emissions?
cliff notes: is there something I can do to get a JDM engine to pass ODBII or should I just stick to USDM only stuff?
