The Term JDM...
Fads come and go. Once you've been in the scene long enough, you see things come full circle. Hell, when I got my civic in 93' I cut the springs on 14" steelies with wheel covers and I thought that was hard as hell
10 years down the road I look at my civic now and pics of her from when I was 17 and laugh. It's all good.

hows you like them apples?

wned: Funny thing is, I thought I saw him on the road...
But not sure if it was him, this is all I got from trying to take a picture... he had GTR badges on the side of his car.

The only thing thats not stock form the outside is the wheels, and I'd buy OEM honda wheels, if they were light enough. No big tailpipes, no amber clocks, no corner lamps. I don't want to be grouped with all the morons out there who just jump on the bandwagon cause its "cool."

i agree with The G2 Racer, us will never be JDM,our cars weight more than thers because of reinforcments (spelling), The cats are diff., and right hands drive, ect. all i know is that im going to Japan next month and getting all the JDM shit i can find. hehhe muhahaha
JDM is something you cannot buy here. Something that is not distributed on our shores. If you can buy a part that is made by the japanese but readily availible at any store here, it isnt JDM. You need to locate and import JDM products. Period.

Here and I though it was just some guy named Jay Deem and everybody was just coping his style Ino, I seriously didn't think that). Like said before, it's the same thing a Type R. I'm waiting for stickers or embliems with the word JDM in them.
Everybody builds their own cars the way they like them. Some copy other styles, some come up with orignal ideas. Your own personality and style comes through in your car. Sometimes that means your car looks good, some look like crap. All a matter of taste. Seeya.
