21R-U is a non-USA engine, usually from Japan. Very similar to 20/22R. Don't count on local dealer to get parts.

A very knowledgeable parts fella once told me that USA dealers can get JDM parts if you have the VIN for the vehicle.

Yeah, good luck with that. Those engines are cut out and stacked on pallets. (BTDT)
