I am a member of ASOG and hoped that I could get some help from this board. I recently spun a rod bearing in my engine and found a place that has a Japanese 420a. I would like to find horsepower and torque ratings.

Also if anyone knows the size of the piston, both height and diameter, would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance for any info you have.

Just out of curiosity, why would you buy a japanese 420a? That would mean it was made in Illinois, then shipped to Japan, and now probably shipped back to the states. I have also heard bad things about jdm motors, like they don't change their oil over there and stuff.

There is no such thing. The 2GNT cars in other countries have the 4G63 in them. There is a member on this board that has one.

All i can say is.... SUCKAH!.. Well. I guess you can tell this guy to stop wasting your time. You should get a little bit more help here!

Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related.
Step 1: Put down everything in your hands.
Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it.
Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you.
If not. Go here: here

If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.

I was wondering that myself. How can you have a japanese domestic market engine, for an american made motor?

91 awd: 60-1, 880's, E-Prom, etc.
93 awd: JDM 6 bolt, K&N, full exhaust, Wally 255, otherwise stock.

I got a JDM 4G63 and it had 165psi in all 4 cylinders. That is awesome compression for a 6 bolt motor. Not a single crack in the turbine housing, and it runs Perfectly.

But like they said, there are no JDM 420a motors

isn't there a mexican 420-a that is like 2.4?

I heard of that Mexican 420A, but common, who want's an engine built by 10 year olds!

This was a joke right?

I believe all 420a's were, in fact, manufactured and assembled in Mexico (take off your valve cover and you should see a "made in Mexico" inscription on the cylinder head). It's pretty common for different factories to have manufactured the pieces for the car, and have them all sent to another factory for final assembly, such as the case with DSM's final assembly in Normal, Illinois.

ALL 420As are built in Mexico including yours so dont start hating now. Oh as for JDM 420As I chalk that up to too much damn Super Street.
Oh and wether its a 13yr old Mexican kid making $5/day for the family or a 40yr old with a high school education making $30/hr for turning wrenches in a factory and still has the audacity to strike its still rediculous to me

You can do negro jokes all I care + I dont speak any spanish so I dont know what the hell pancito means. All I know are the words I learned from my favorite movie Training Day.

I noticed the made in Mexico casted in when I had my valve cover off. I didn't know if it was the whole motor tho. I seriously remember something about a mexican 2.4 liter 420A or something. What was it? DOHC stratus block or something maybe? Hell, I can't remember.

You are probably thinking about the 2.4L turbo that is stock on the mexican version of the Stratus R/T
