I just got the April issue of Option2, and in it they have a car crew spotlight of a Japanese car crew that is into USDM 'west coast' style tuning!!! Quad light integras, large chrome wheels, vinyl graphics

Check this shop out: http://www.tintshopjapan.com

There is also a photo (either in the Apr Option2 or the May Option) of an RHD teg w/ quad lights, TenzoR graphics and Tenzo wheels as well as a few cars w/ Altezza lights.

Is USDM there the counterpoint to JDM here??? Good lord, the stunnas are poisoning the Japanese car culture!!!

 

hahahaha. good lord

 

i always wondered about that... DAMN!

 

now that is too funny.

 

crap, and their ricers over there are laughing at the "jdm" people here and they think WE'RE ricers

 

Only the ITRs in Japan came with the "JDM ITR front end". The regular integras came with the north american front end.

 

actually so do the the SiRG model (jdm gsr)

<U>Wrong.</U>

 

there was 1 particular year that was released in japan w/ the USDM front end. 93-94 in japan.

 

So does that mean that rice will be the new JDM?

 

if you were all smart you would be EMAILIng those guys trading US-OEM front ends for thiers along with altezza lights and windshield wiper LEDs and the whole 9... i bet mad tight indiglo gauges in MPH is mad tight for them

 

I know what you mean. I was flipping through a Type-R magazine I got during my trip to Japan. I had to scan these and share.

I laughed at this one...
Acura

I almost cried when I saw what they did to this one.
USDM

We should call them. USDM parts in exchange for JDM parts. No one is happy with what they have...lol

 

No, the 94-97 nose in the US was used in 93.5-95 integras in Japan. All japanese integras 96+ have the two piece headlamps.

Most neighbouring asian countries got the same nose as we do here.

I don't get why people get all exciting about the idea of trading their "US" fronts with "JDM" fronts with people over in Japan. I really doubt anyone here would go through all the trouble..after all all the stuff is made there anyway.

 

hahahahaahha that is funny

 

yo, that is something me and my boys have wondered about for the longest.....my conspracy theories are true........

 

I wonder what the Germans think about all of this?

 

Hell yeah....my mom's car is in the background in one of the Black Widow section pictures....funny stuff

 

yea, why do you think vision corners are orange, theyre made to be "like" the USDM corners. If you look at LA style magazine, its all about the JDM USDM cars. Lexus/Infiniti?Acura owners in japan pay good money to get USDM emblems and dealer license plate frames. In this months option i think they show a b16(?) turbo Del sol with sparco seats, racing hart rims and air bags. Theres also a crew in japan called autobots with cars with gulwing doors and head/taillight conversions.

 

 

So what's JDM now? hehehe. Umm, I'll stick with the conservative looks. hehe.

 

thats some backward shiet...go figure...
always wondered when they would go USDM...



what to do now? im going PDM
*Phillipine Domestic Manufactured*

that would be Jeepney style...10 side view mirrors, horns and bells, my shaldan air freshener, a PI flag, and a carribou to tow my POS..

 

F that, I'm gonna go KDM, Kia Sephia front end on my NSX?

 

Thats what I'm saying....imagine a jeepney on dubs and bags......u know how much props u would get???

 

this has always been the case...... In france if u have a mustang your the ****..i have a cousin down there and he told me Mustang is the Hot car over there ... of course they want ours stuff and we want theres ... haha
