Not unless you're in Japan. Most people swap in the JDM engines because they usually have around 10 more hp than their non-JDM counterparts.

Re: JDM all Honda Civic Motors?

"non-JdM" more than likely means its USDM (United States Domestic Market)

technically it cant be manufacture bc manufacture is a verb. verbs cannot be used in noun acryonyms like JDM. ie, JDM is a noun, so it cannot have a verb as part of the acryonym. you have to alter the structure of the words to make it sound right, by changing them to adverbs.

Japanese(Noun) Domestic(ADJ) Manufacture(VERB) *WRONG*

Japanese(Noun) Domestically(ADV) Manufactured(ADJ) *RIGHT*

and no im no english teacher or anything, i just hate when people sound stupid by using the wrong words in a language that you speak daily

Are you sure?

I always thought it was Japanese Domestic Market. I never heard of japanese domestic manufacturer. Does anyone else agree that thats what its really called? (Im not saying that its not, but I need a second opinion.)
