JDM all Honda Civic Motors?

Does Civic's and hatchbacks all have JDM motors in them? I'm not to fimiliar with JDM motors.

JDM stands for Japan(ese) Domestic Market

Assuming they're from japan...yes, they have JDM motors.

so your average civic hatchback off the street wouldn't have a JDM motor in it?

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.

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

alright understood, thanks guys

its actually manufacture not 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

its actually manufacture not market.
and to add to that it is JDM (Japan Domestic Market) and USDM (United States Domestic Market) Look it up.

its manufacture wether you believe me or not, its is made in Japan, hence where it its manufactured, wether the english is right or not.

Quit bitchin' about who is the spelling "b" champ and talk about real issues like: Are there any japanese sites in english?

get a translator

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.)

your all welcome.
