"jdm"

is anyone else tired of the misuse of the phrase "jdm"? everywhere i whenever i see a civic or something with an si motor swap and a lip spoiler and a carbon hood people shit their pants and say "look at the jdm civic!" when every part on the car is made in the usa or canada or mexico. for the people who are unaware jdm is an abbreviation for japanese domestic market, in other words parts made in japan, jdm is not what u call every clean styled car u see. alright sorry just getting that pet peeve off my chest.

also im tired of people saying they have headers on their inline motors, u only have one header people! my subaru is one of the only 4 cylinders that can actually claim to fit 2 headers cuz of its boxer configuration. okay sorry again...

it's a simple way of saying JDM styled car...obviously any car in the US is USDM unless it is a car sold on the JDM and imported stateside....I don't claim my car to be JDM, but I like JDM cars...I wish I had money to import a JDM car over here...it's a simply style...somethings aren't even noticable...it's all about personal preference

Yeah those terms are really stupid look at that JDM car. LOL that basicly meens a car from japan with all JDM parts not very true. A perfect example of JDM is a CTR imported.

LOL....I'm sick of people complaining about Header vs. Headers! who cares....it just SOUNDS better to say headers. I know that one letter is a killer

and EVERY one and EVERY place say HEADERS...just some things really don't matter in life after hearing that
