Anyone heard of a JDM Integra LS motor?
Yeah just recently did a swap in my 91 CRX Si. And I just wanted to know if the specs are the same as the US version? How many HP, torque? Oh its from a Japan 1997 Acura INtegra LS OBD2 but converted to OBD0

for an OBD2 engine to be legal you would need to make your car OBD2...that means every emissions POS that was on a 97 Teg would need to be on your CRX...and no JDM engines arent legal...just get a USDM motor...but it needs to be a 91 for it to be legal in your car...

well if you pay the right people.... 
if its JDM it wont pass (legally)... if its a USDM it needs to be from the same year as your chassis (91 in this case) and carry all the emissions equipment and electroincs that were on it (so your car would have to pass the test as if it were a 97 Integra, if thats where the motor came from)... every other modification needs an CARB exempt sticker (like a AEM intake, DC Sports header, etc)

this should be funny to see.
