I wont spend cash on a JDM ashtrays, or air vents, or steering wheels......I'd rather have a Mugen steering wheel than a stock japanese one. that's all. only a few things will be JDM, but the majority of parts I will be Japanese aftermarketoc_civic said:

although i think the phrase JDM is very overused.... i think if you have a clean well thought out honda... with ek9 headlights, a s**t load of spoon, mugen, and things like takata harnesses (things you would find mostly on higher end tuner cars in japan) its pretty JDM..even though i have emm.. i must admitt.. rotas are not very jdm at all.. lol but the REAL rims are SO expensive.. thats why i questioned the takatas.. if you can find them for less than 350 each let me know...good luck with your project..child_racer said:
dayum expensive aftermarket parts 
thanks for the good word man!
thanks for the good word man!the bottom of this pics ....is my favorite. Were abouts in CAli are you ....im looking to paint my car over again. I spent 500$ the first time and the paint job wasnt the best. You get what you pay for right!? I had a question do you just leave your car parked there day/night? Just wondering how you get ur engine work done there on the parking lot.child_racer said:one more just to show 3 of the MANY FACES of my EJ8
My car has went through soooo many changes in only a year and a half, plus 3 different colors!!!! Thats what happens when you're a body man and mechanic for a living and you get bored!
looks good man... but personally i liked it better with the R34 and the canards... but its ur car so do what u will... but all the changes look good so i don't doubt that ur new venture will turn out as good or better... can't wait to see it painted, should make it look better...
the dark blue color looks so much better than the white
yeah my ride usually just stays out there in the parking lot outside of my dorms. I slave out there in the parking lot, it was funny cause peeps would drive by wondering why I had half an engine on the ground next to me lol.duFf_M@N said:

It was nice.....but before I ran into some bad luck, I had planned on doing coutless parts in carbon fiber and I thought it would look better on the white instead. I had a lot peeps mad at me when they saw me with my car white LOL. I wish I had a daytime pic of it still......the blue is super bright in the day, and then it gets nearly black at nightsurfer4life722 said:
