Wendell, As I understand it, a j-spec engine is one that was taken out of a low mileage vehicle in Japan (due to some weird Japanese law relating to "old" cars) and shipped to the U.S. to sell to someone like me.  Mark S.

No, you must have me confused with my evil twin.  ;-)
I did the engine myself.  I left the oil filter pad alone.  It was a
J-SPEC engine and really didn't need much.  I did the mods recommended
by Tracy as well as installing TES o-rings throughout.  I didn't go with
high-compression rotors as I had planned on turbo-charging... since
changed my mind on that.    Mark S.
(regret not ceramic coating rotors)

Mark,  what is a J-SPEC engine?
Wendell
