Which not only explains the poor quality of manufacturing. But also, why its generally a ---- engine.
We british are rubbish at making anything.
Take MG's and Jag's for example.

Nope, the EP and FD chassis's are both manufactured in the UK. All JDM K20's are also made in the UK and exported to JDM land where they're hand fettled before fitting to EP chassis. Might only be EDM and JDM, but I think its most civic production.

It really does explain alot of the quality problems being seek on the K series.

Buy a KIA then you know you are buying a peice of ---- and you can't complain!! Why? because its a KIA.... Don't get a subby you will never be able to diagnosis a miss and then once you did the tranny will go on vacation. Get the Evo the trannys suck too but not as hard as the subbys.

YEah but tranny is easier to remove from a subby than an evo......

Its gotta have 4 doors, look good, and be relatively new....perferably with a warranty.
