Difference betwen USDM IX MR and JDM IX MR

I'm looking for specs on the JDM Evo 9 MR. What are the specialties of the car...

USDM has bilsteins, 6spd, bbs... What does the JDM have different?

Thanks to anyone who knows specifics!

Thanks but I already read that and the JDM MR trim is not described there.

The JDM MR which I believe came out later than the US MR has different Eibach springs (they're red if I remember correctly) that are a few mm lower and slightly stiffer to help stiffen things up for corner exit acceleration. It also has the new lip (SE lip here), Diamond Black BBS, and the S-AYC has been updated to transfer 10% more torque to either outside wheel (going off memory here so sorry if I'm off it could be 15%). The springs and the S-AYC are the major upgrades and if I remember correctly only the MR trim JDM Evos have the updated S-AYC.
