ISO and JIS actually use the same taper; JIS is just a little longer so the arm sits a bit further out than it would on an ISO spindle. The rings Phil uses to hold the cartridge in place allow you to alter the chainline to accommodate for such differences. You may need to thread the drive side ring in a thread or so deeper to move the arm closer to the frame if you do run into a chainline problem.
