Does it make a difference if my cb7 was made in japan instead of the states ?

[pwrusr]

Yes... In Japan they have the drivers seat on the right hand side of the car. they also have side markers and the one peice headlights (on sedans, coupes have clear corners).

A few other differences are there but those are off the top of my head.

he means it has a jhg instead of a 1hg . . . but i think that was sarcasm anyways

Ok the differences.

Canada's LX = basicaly the US version which is the DX
Canada's EX = basically like our LX and EX believe or not. I have the drivers manual right next to me (from my old car). The US EX and Canadian EX-R are basically on the same level. Although I could never figure out why they had the EX-R up in Canada (and NO the R in the EX-R does not mean Racer theres a technical term for it but unfortunately it doesn't mention it in the manual.

We did not have the DRL's (although I think it was an option) here while in Canada the laws strictly have them as standard equipment on all cars that were or are in Canadian manufacturing specs.


Now in Japan.

Yes they had the options probably standard , the funny part was Honda of America in Marysville , OH built the Japanese Market Accord right along side the USDM version at the plant. Some American Accords came from the Samriya (sp?) Japan plant were the NSX and Integra were and are still being built.

The European market had the Euro version of the Accord but from what I've read and heard they're very rare and the full model one that Ive seen and really liked was this EX that had heated seats and mirrors for the Nordic Trim ( an option readily available for the Far Northern countries of Europe : Sweden , Finland and Norway) theres a member from Norway here but I don't even know if he still comes around to the site.

This is the simple breakdown for the Chassis Codes for the markets the car served.

Southeastern Asia and Pacific Ocean (Malaysia , Austrailia and Oceana)


SM4 (this is can be found stamped on the parts or right on front of the car in next to the radiator)
CB3
CB4
CB1
CB6

United States and Canada

CB7
CB9


Europe and MiddleEast

CB3
CB4


Plants were the cars were manufactured for their respectable markets.


Japan- (includes the US version that has the VIN tag begining in JHG)
Honda of Japan Ltd.
Samirya , Japan

Southeastern Asia
Honda of Southeastern Asia Ltd.
Bangkok , Thailand (Vietnam is also a possiblity)

England and the rest of Europe
Honda of England
Swindon , UK

This is information is what I can at least gather from where they were built back in the begining of the 89 model year (the 89 model year was basically an early start for the Japanese market).

If there is a way to get all the information , I'm probably gonna work on getting it. I was thinking of writing to Honda of America and asking them what were the options for various countries and maybe get some brouchures for the cars from back then.

I'll keep you all informed.
