what does everyone think of USDM styled cars

shit... like everything the yanks take it too far in some pathetic attempt to beat everyone else in something that is not a competition

What is usdm exactly? Looks like jap cars with euro/jap wheels on them..

Would usdm refer to us made vehicles?

technically yes, but as far as styling goes, usdm is essentially fatlace inc

Yeah I know you know what it means, but even JDM doesn't mean anything, people use it as if it means Japanese development motorsport to make themselves feel special about owning an import, but it's like calling a silvertop taxi ADM....

yeah, it does... it mean's Japanese Domestic Market.... just as USDM is United States Domestic Market

the term actually refers to the original country the car was delivered to :)

You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

So my girlfriend was at my place...Walk her out when she was heading home, wearing nothing but a pair of shorts. Once outside I noticed how chilly it was where as inside was still quite warm, hence the lack of clothing...

Closed the door behind me so no flies/insects would get in...Wave to her as she drives down the street, still cold but it's rude to go inside before the person leaves...

Turn around to open the door, locked. Phone inside, keys inside, clothes/shoes inside...

Quickly run down the street in the dark, barefoot (quite painful) trying to catch her, but unfortunately for me she isn't a slow driver.. Then had to run to my brothers house, still barefoot and shirtless obviously. Thank f**k he was home or it would've been an hour or so walk to my parents house, again, barefoot and shirtless...

Eventful end to my birthday..

Thanks, I know all that and wrote it above. Point was that shit like 'JDM as f**k' means f**k all.

People use JDM as if to refer to the way the car is styled (good offset/stance etc), but the 2 have nothing to do with each other \

This is 'JDM as f**k'

There is something about yourself that you don't know. Something that you will deny even exists, until it's too late to do anything about it. It's the only reason you get up in the morning. The only reason you suffer the shitty boss, the blood, the sweat and the tears. This is because you want people to know how good, attractive, generous, funny, wild and clever you really are. Fear or revere me, but please, think I'm special. We share an addiction. We're approval junkies. We're all in it for the slap on the back and the gold watch. The hip-hip-hoo-f**kin' rah. Look at the clever boy with the badge, polishing his trophy. Shine on you crazy diamond, because we're just monkeys wrapped in suits, begging for the approval of others.

      What accelerator cable can be used with greddy plenum

      By Duncan · Posted

      I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
