Re: JDM front ends... (Emerica)
Ok, to my understanding, the JDM front end is ONLY for the JDM Type R's, correct??
If this is the case, then I have to vent....Is it just me or does anyone else get pised when they see the front end on anything but a ITR!? Such as an LS or GSR. I dunno if it's just me, but I think if anybody should have the JDM front end it should be Type R's. KInda ruins it for the car. Also, this brings up the price of the conversion as well- remember Econ 101, supply and demand.
Now obviously it looks dope no mater what, and people won't really care, but it's always sopmething that bugged me. JUst ignore it.

I don't know about "ruining" a car. It only enhances the looks IMO.
I don't know where you took Econ either, obviously you failed. If the only people did the conversions had to have ITRs, then the price of the Front End would go UP, since there are relatively few ITRs out there.
There are no "rules" for JDM. Why do EKs have CTR gauge clusters? Steering wheels? Shift *****? Etc. Should it be reserved for only CTRs? Well ****, why do we even upgrade our cars to have Type-R cams, pistons, etc., they only belong in Type-Rs right? Remember, if you have a LHD car that you bought over here, it's USDM, no matter how much **** you put into it.

Sounds like ITR snob talk...Nothing really "belongs" on anything...you can put whatever on whatever. It all choice bro. And as already posted above me, there were other Integras in Japan with that front end.

Re: JDM front ends... (Emerica)
I'm not complaining. First, I was asking what trim the front end came on besides the ITR, and 2nd, seeing if people thought as I did. But, being JDM, it could never be played out. I'd delete it if I could, but who cares. I don't.

Re: JDM front ends... (zer0zer0 TypeR)
oh well guys. i guess since a b18c5 was NOT MADE for my coupe, OR INTENDED for it, if i got one it wouldn't be a proper swap.
this logic is : dont put shiz on your car unless it came from another car OF THE SAME MODEL correct?
you rock HX rims on your 92-95 EH/EG. so is that wrong?

Re: JDM front ends... (JaeOne3345)
actually emerica in japan the four eyed version came on teg in 93 and 94 then they switched to the longer head lights soo actually it shouldn't even be on type Rs cause in 95 there was no typeR's 96 was the first year they were in production and the longer head lights came on lower models. and if you feel so so against this then why do you mod your car at all if you think it doesn't belong then only stock **** should be left on. ya thats what i thought shhhhhh every body makes mistakes its all rihgt

Re: JDM front ends... (slammed_93_hatch)
Seriously, we should start a crusade on Honda-Tech to BURN every non-ITR w/ a JDM front end to the ground.......
We can start with mine.

Man Emerica, you are truely a dumbass.
2216 posts and you still don't know ****, talk about WORTHLESS.
You're only jealous of JDM Front ends because you can't even afford to paint your shitty *** EG's front end. Go paint your front bumper. LOL LOSER!

Re: JDM front ends... (riot)
I don't even remember starting this thread. Somebody from my work must have posted it cause this one kid hates Japanese stuff. He's a Euro buff. But whatever, that's why I'm going to delete my replies. Think what you want cause I could care less. You guys talk too much ish without knowing. hit me up on AIM if you got anymore problems...IllmaticDC.
Peace.
Edit-
Mega EK and zer0zer0 TypeR: you guys are too funny. What else can you say that will hurt my feelings?? Yeah that's my EH without painted bumpers. So what. Do you know what kind of suspension/engine mods I have? No you don't, and you'll never know. And I could care less if you don't like it. You may have a Type R with Work wheels and a built engine, but that means nothing. Just a car.
