Any experts on the V6 3.5 litre J Series V-Tec Engine?
Discussion
Despite spending many hours on the interweb and getting conflicting results with regards to the suffixes for these engines eg J35A3 xxxxxxx and J35A4 xxxxxxx, I am trying to find out what the plain old J35A (no suffix) is. I'm told that this number - J35A - is only used in Japan.
Wiki gives me this:
The J35 displaced 3.5 L (3471 cc) and is an SOHC VTEC design. Bore is 89 mm (3.5 in) and stroke is 93 mm (3.7 in). Output was 210 hp (157 kW) for the J35A1, 265 hp (198 kW) and 253 ft·lbf (343 N·m) for the J35A3, and 240 hp (178.97 kW) @ 5500 rpm and 242 ft·lbf (327.74 Nm) @ 4500 rpm for the J35A4.
The new J35 used in the Acura RL produces 290 hp (224 kW) at 6200 rpm and 256 ft·lbf (347 N·m) at 5000 rpm. This engine was on the Ward's 10 Best Engines list for 2005 and 2008.
The J35A9 used in the Honda Ridgeline produces 247 hp (184 kW) at 5750 rpm and 245 ft·lbf (332 N·m) at 4500 rpm.
The J35 was also used by General Motors in the 2004-2007 Saturn VUE, though GM refers to it as the L66.
J35A1 - 1999-2001 Honda Odyssey
J35A3 - Acura MDX, 2005-2008 Acura RL, 2007+ Acura TL Type-S
J35A4 - 2002-2004 Honda Odyssey
J35A9 - Honda Ridgeline, Honda Pilot (VTM-4 models)
J35Z1 - Variable Cylinder Management, 2005 Honda Odyssey, 2006 Honda Pilot (front-wheel-drive models)
J35Z2 - Variable Cylinder Management, 2008 Honda Accord (except V6 6MT coupe)
The reason I ask is that I broke my J35A4 engine (originally supplied from Europe) and have just picked up a couple of Japanese import engines (JDM) and am trying to found out a bit more about them.
The two numbers are J35A 1003413 and J35A 3501711. The local dealer is unable to type in the engine numbers and cross-reference them to a particular vehicle.
Does anyone have more in-depth knowledge of this?
