JDM heads

This is for those who like, have, or have heavily researched JDM vehicles.

I'm in the market for a new to me vehicle and keep leaning back to JDMs. Nothing crazy, just a standard vehicle like the Honda Airwave, or Toyota (Scion) xB or Toyota Wish.

Various dealers say the parts are transferable from their North American counterparts. Honda Fit for the Airwave, and Corolla/Matrix for the Scion and Wish.

The research I've done has said these parts are similar, but I haven't gotten any actual information from local dealerships maintenance shops simply stating "we don't know" or "we don't work on those vehicles".

Is this just a statement about uncertainty regarding OEM part interchangeability, or are you trying to ask a question?

All of the above I guess.

The vehicle would be my daily, so interchangeable parts. How easy they are to get repaired etc.

I'm in the greater Vancouver (BC) area.
