id like to bring up a term most of you are oblivious to, JDM.

its what i base the parts desisions on my car off of. i dont like wheels bigger than 16". i dont like non factory colors. i dont like ricers. i hate auto zone and all other parts stores because they provide parts that invented the ricer. i could call out alot of you right now on the ricer term, but i wont because im probably already going to get enough shit for all of this, all i wanted from this thread was to say hello, im actively working on my car. not a whole intake disscusion, if you doubt this intake buy it, youll be sorely mistaken. and it looks good. peace.

the car looks pretty good man. clean paint, no noticable dents, and no rust. i like the intake too, from a cosmetic standpoint. but don't base buying your parts off the idea that they are "jdm". believe it or not, but the "jdm" thing is a trend. just like the body kits, altezzas and all that fun stuff. the idea to keep a nice clean simple modded car is great, but when you purchase parts it should be for more of a reason than just, they were "jdm". don't like wheels bigger than 16s because the wieght differences, not the "jdm" look. just my opinion man, but parts that function well never go out of style, jdm, usdm, german, korean, whatever. anyways, good luck modding your car. geez, i need to go to sleep.

are we oblivious?? or do we just realize that jdm is a fad that gets kids to spend more money for parts that are stock.. or no better than any of the aftermarket shit around??

That intake isnt even JDM... its a knockoff of one that is...

man, i like your car, but it is no where near "jdm" status. you have an excellent platform to build off of. you have jdm foglights, "spoon" (maybe they are real, probably not) mirrors. but who cares what people think, if you like the way your car looks everyday when you wake up and see it, thats what its all about, YOU! not some people on here. im sure you would have tons more jdm parts if you could afford them, they are expensive, thats why it is the in thing to do. keep up the good work, it looks good. and for wheels, white sprint harts FTW!
