Interesting. I find it funny how they have single exhaust pipes.... Must be the K20 swap. The side markers on the front fenders are cute too.

Personally, I don't think the term "JDM" and the word "Corvette" belong in the same sentence.![]()

uhhh. where is the JDM? Its a "american" car. Just because you put TE's on a vette doesnt mean its "JDM y0"
^^ well, what i think hes showing is how these vettes have similarities to popular japanese car styling, sidemarkers, single exit and of course, TE's

No I think he is referring to the ugly wings.
If you don't need a wing on a track you're not going any where near fast enough...Originally Posted by LS3_KID
Speed is all relative, and I have a friend with race C6 with no wing, yet it goes plenty fastOriginally Posted by speedminded

There you go! They have a few small sponsors, like free tires from Michelin tires, Hurst, and Mobile 1.
Yeah they definitely dont help the cause

The yellow one in the 1st pic is pretty hot.

ive never been a big fan of the whole domestic deal...and that makes it worse
Wouldn't a JDM Vette just be one for the Japanese market? And besides, isn't the Vette sold as its own brand in Japan?
Anyways....Westcorvette has made some great C4s over the years.
lol....um ok?Originally Posted by boostedem1
I don't see any JDMness.
Almost seems every Corvette has the side markers there maybe for regulations. Wait..I think that IS true..why would EVERY Vette in these pics have the exact same marker in the exact same location? How is a side marker even JDM..??? lol.
Wings on track cars, so stupid....
U.S.A. is one of the few countries where side markers haven't been made mandatory.Originally Posted by simontibbett
I used to believe TE's would look good on anything and everything. I changed my mind. The Vette is a badass car and needs badass wheels.
Not that the TE's aren't a badass wheel in their own right. Just not badass enough for a Vette.
also has what you would call "export" tail lights. were about the only country where it isnt manditory to have amber turn signals as well
Single exit exhaust means JDM?
Or.... It means it works just fine and you don't need 4 pipes in the back to show all your performance.
Looks like corvette's modded for track... not JDM.

Why not have the added weight of a big can and 4 pipes coming out the back?!Originally Posted by DinanM3atl

It must be single exhaust because no one can ever line up the horrid four tips. I've never once seen a corvette (c5 or c6) with aligned exhausts.

A rhd vette would be pretty cool, def would stand out at a vette gathering

Ugh, everyone is over-analyzing this thread. I should have titled it race-inspired corvette styling in another country....
