In the UK, you'd look for Pozidrive. Philips has a different design of
point.

IMOE and AFAICT the Japanese don't use Posi at all.

No - but it's a closer match to their ISO screws than Philips.

I guess that depends on the quality of Philips tool you use. I've found that
Chinese (et al) "Philips" have lousy slot tolerances and the tools were never a
decent fit, while all the Japanese gear I've worked on - and their automotive
screws - all had a fine fit where you could fit a screw to a horizontal Philips
shaft and it wouldn't fall off.

I bought a 4-1 at sears. I'll have to search for the part number form
you

Try Jensen Tools, I have this set:
