exactly.

rice=bad (ex: fart can, APC, euro-tails)
JDM= the forbidden treasure (ex: Civic type R, RHD, spoon sports,red valve covers)
USDM= less rare, less expensive. (LHD, no CTR, Round headlights on integras)

You mean honda drivers that think JDM is rice......



I think the whole JDM shit is stupid... and some are rice shit also, not all, but some makes no sense just like shit over here.

There's actually USDM functional parts that will out perform some jdm stuff.. So it goes both ways or how much of a groupie follower people want to be.

i just think it is hilarious that a few years ago...and in some areas still. Body kits were kool if done correctly (painted, fit perfectly, etc...) But everyone has jumped on the bandwagon of calling anything with a kit or small spoiler rice. I agree the tailights are the worst investment but i still see some cars running around with kits and they look nice IMO (if done correctly).

the whole JDM thing is with lip kits.....KITS HELLO...it's a mild form of a body kit. same frigin thing. I like the tinting of the tailights but it is dangerous as fuk. at least those shitty ass euors i could see the brake lights...sometimes.

whatever...just stating that i think it is HILARIOUS how kits were "in" until the term "rice" was made up. now EVERYTHING is rice if YOU don't like it. ~end rant~

JDM parts are just higher quality and most of the time look way better.
they designed the cars so use the parts they made for them.

....WHAT?:thinking: I do have a front lip on my car. It opened up my bumper for more cooling to my FMIC and created a little more downforce.

not all body kits make the car off balance. You guys think I like eveything. I said they look ok when done right. when they mix and match that shit it looks bad.

and not all JDM parts are that great nor are all the body kits. But most body kits are super strong with fiberglass, urethane, polyurethane. I dont see those as weak materials.

Also, the body kits WERE made for that car. The car makers didn't design the car with the intent of body kits being installed

so you stating i have a front lip on my car means what? I never said I didn't like them.

Search eBay for JDM, there are JDM seatbelt pads now....even JDM eBay coilovers. Some real sick stuff dude! Drifting has turned gay, JDM has turned gay, it's all turning stupid.

Now there is STILL some NICE JDM stuff around, some real clean well done cars, with a mix of JDM/USDM styling, real built cars, that stuff is cool. And there still is good drifting. But when I saw the Alfundersteer (search JJ Alfano) my image of drifting totally changed and I saw where it was going.

Tell me what is gay about jtuned.com? Com'n now lets be serious, you can't possibly make a comparison between it and searching "JDM" on eBay can you?

You are right though, i don't like how the word is overused and in the context it is sometimes. I have a OEM "JDM" momo steering wheel from the Honda Integra Type-R and it is by far the best wheel i've ever encountered, the design & quality exceeds all the others i've seen & used. Momo's Italy right? SO is it really "JDM"? :dunno:

I've crewed on the Raceworks race team for several years and go up there whenever I can. As far as I know they are no longer open to the public, just strictly their own race stuff.

Is your lip fiberglass or urethane? You would probably want a bodyshop for that. :2cents: Wait, doesn't your dad own a bodyshop?!

Seriously, JDM isn't all that. Look at speedminded's integra. I think it looks great, cause it's original. I'm tired of all the mainstream looks of hondas and acuras. If you really look, everyone buys the same "jdm" parts.

it is urethane.ohh, gotcha. Urethane is a whole new world though and i'd say 99% of the bodyshops won't attempt it, or the proper way anyways...need to look up urethane and flexible plastic repair -- there is mixtures available that's basically a plastic weld.

thats not quite correct. most of the stuff u c on ebay isn't actually JDM though. i've seen the name of a product advertised on ebay as "civic steering wheel JDM accord, integra, spoon" Its just a shitty seller selling shit. The term "JDM" just gets overused & thrown around a lot.

Now a real JDM part, be it a REAL JDM steering wheel, power folding mirrors, all the little goodies and cool things, that's cool. I agree many JDM parts are cooler then the USDM model we got, if not cooler, work better or suit our needs better.

It's just JDM is used EVERYWHERE such as "I want JDM styling on my Civic" and it turns out that USDM JDM style, not REAL JDM style. I am having a hard time explaining myself lol.

Why not everyone either ignore them or recommend or suggest something else to them...no use in complaining about someone elses junk. I don't look twice at any car with vinyl on it unless its track prepared with a number and legitimate sponsors, never have and never will...i don't even like ricing strapes...errr racing stripes but that's my preference.

You can easily tell if someone has put quality time and effort into a project, anything else doesn't matter.



the only fucking rice these days are the dumbass mexicans and azn people.You need to get off Buford Hwy. then. I was in Dunwoody the other day and see (& hear) a lil silver mercedes c230 or whatever the cheapest newer sedan is with tinted tails and a horrible sounding straight exhaust with an oversized chrome tip ...didn't help it was automatic. It honestly sounded like a stock eclipse with a straight pipe (i would know, trust me!) and had more body roll than a ford explorer through the turn.

i'm afraid ur wrong about that my friend. Mugen wasnt started by some1 who worked for Honda. mugen was founded by Hirotoshi Honda, the son of the founder of Honda(Soichiro honda) they started out building racecars. Spoon was founded in '88 by a japanese racecar driver named Ichishima Tatsuru who raced & tuned hondas.

...the prices aren't "jacked up". Spoon & mugen parts are very limited, & sought after. plus they are made in japan & each one has only 1 official distrubutor in the U.S.
