Nope. Read the above again. The B18C is the Integra GSR motor. Of course the GSR was available in the United States. And of course the Type R was available in Japan.

Both motors were available in both Japan and the US. The only difference (in the longblock) between the JDM and USDM versions of the motors was the compression ratios. JDM engines usually run a higher compression ratio because they generally run higher octane gas than we run here.
