if you have a coupe.. you should make it rhd, and call it jdm.. that would really piss people off..

from everything that i have read (could be wrong so correct me) you need to bring at least 3 for front, back, and side impact smahes. Don't forget the customs which are a b***h to even bring wine from another country plus all the paper work and stuff to make it street legal. If you want to really get the facts read "Import Tuner" June 2005 issue. It covers what you need to do well to bring a japanese car.

you cant change your cars nationality anymore than you can change your own.....

you can throw jdm parts at it till your grandchildren are in debt and your arms fall off... all you'll be left with is a usdm coupe with a bunch of jdm parts.

which at best is a jdm inspired usdm coupe ;)

he probably is..but u know the good motors..well like the gsr's and all were assembled in japan..usdm and jdm ones...
i don't understand what the big deal is really..as long as u use the same quality parts..the only diff that would exist is the rhd and lhd shyt..
which i think is punitive compared to the rest....but thats just me...:what:

right.. there are two jdm things i will probably never do because they are less than practical for daily driver in the states..

1. jdm cluster with KPH
2. RHD (any time i go through anything drivethrough like a bridge toll or something would be a nightmare, i dont eat drive through food.. lol)

and as i stated before.. i dont care if anyone wants to throw in their two cents in regards to the "jdm-ness" of my car... =)
