Default JDM isn't so JDM

Just a thought but....

Why does honda have american letters on their engine codes instead of japanese symbols when you order a "JDM" motor?...same with the VIN codes...not very JDM if you ask me!

Just thought I'd share my incite

Because a lot of your "JDM sh!t" is from europe, australia, etc.

There is also a lot of english in Japan.

Never been to japan so I wouldn't know what they speak there...but I should have assumed since 80% of 10 year olds and under are smarter and much more well versed than our college graduates.
