what ever happened to the simple "your car is NICE"
jdm, clean and w/e other saying/word you have are all overplayed. there are ridiculous cars out there that in my opinion are not nice... and there are many cars that are "nice".
why does everyone have to be jdm...? if u want to be jdm, ****ing move. this is not japan... have a nice car, and call it for what it is... nice, not "jdm"
my opinion is.. jdm applies to rhd... stock rhd...
be yourself people.

the only reason why Im pimping the Lude with JDM parts is the Prelude has NO good factory stuff. Man think about this: We have no navi, digi climate control, Type S Suede Seats, No 3 Spoke Steering, No Type S engine basically NOTHING GOOD!!!

TR00f! Ludes has a 30K price tag when honda ax'd'm i remember seein that sessi blue one on the lot but nope about 15K outta price range @ the time...![]()

Ya 30k for a stupid amount with no good options. OOO whoopy doo we had sunroof and stick shift which 99% of time broke. SH or ATTS was a wasteful technology due to when you were on track and took a corner at 70MPH or above ATTS would not kick in. It pisses me off but all for JM's AP1.
indeed AP1 > BB6 i'm sorry
jdm = expensive japanese parts

STOP IT!!!!

I SWEAR I DIDNT KNOW!!!!
JIC or DIE!
Why do you regret them? Ethically I've got issues with them directly ripping off the design of expensive wheels but with Rotas being 1/3 of the cost and 1-2lbs heavier per wheel they're a great deal. Great customer service too.Originally Posted by Crazy Asian

so what is ethics worth to you?Originally Posted by GTScoob
Lol, ethics? It's not like Rota is claiming the design as their own. The wheels aren't even direct competitors to the wheels they imitate. The fact of the matter is, anyone that can appreciate nice wheels (people who know their ish) can generally tell when a wheel is Rota and not the thing it's imitating. And the people who can't tell are the ones that wouldn't be affected any differently if you told them you were sporting Rota Torques or Works anyways. Either way you would get "Oh, cool wheels."Originally Posted by EJ25RUN
From my experience the majority of Rota owners don't try to hide the fact that they are Rotas. They buy them because, like GTScoob said, they are good looking wheels that aren't that expensive.
I just found out that Drag makes a rip-off of my wheels (fno1r-c). And do I care? Hell no. I paid for a higher quality wheel and that's what I got. The fact that they look like mine I find flattering more than anything else.

Rota has no ethics. They totally ripped off the round wheel with spokes idea. Like I said before, posting in a thread arguing about JDM is totally not JDM, none of ya fools is JDM suckassss!
Please tell me if you think my car looks good. But don't tell me if you think it's ugly - only on IA
