Cars that are JDM are just clean ass cars that look stock but that can have an exhaust and little upgrades but nothing to completely change the look of the car. I am in the process of making my car LOOK like it was made in Japan........even though my car wasn't Japan Spec i can make it look like one and it will still look clean as fuck

JDM = paying to much to make your car look like shit when you can make it look like shit for alot cheaper.

Engine swaps, front end conversions and what not done on a US purchased Japanese Car is not JDM.

That's it, right there. Exactly to a point. And no one look at my sig and say my car is jdm, i have oem spec fog lights, that were available in japan. Doesn't mean the car is jdm.

okay so you like American.

there are things released on cars in other countries that aren't here and its is nice when you can find them and have them on your car.

its like a ford with a cosworth engine, you would want to talk about that wouldn't you?

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
