Someone said that the second yellow da had 90 rear bumper…doesn’t look like it to me…this is an awesome thread aside from the earlier arguing. I have a picture of that black da above as it rests today, swapped the kaminari for erebuni kit a few years back though. enjoy
That car is a perfect example of clean 90’s tuning.
I went to college with Marc.It sucks the integra doesnt really exist anymore…After it appeared in that issue, it got cut up in the process of making it into a tube frame drag car. Haha, i was one of the last to see it in one piece…The whole front half of the car and the floor was cut out, leaving only the roof and sides. Years Later, he admitted he should have just bought a salvaged shell to cut up instead of butchering that GS-R
[QUOTE=HellaSloH;1932036] You sound more the the JDM fan-boy trying to bash someone just because they don’t agree with you :stfu:

Me? JDM fanboi? LOL, yeah fucking right. just like Nino said, if you didnt have piaa’s and a fuba in the 90’s, your opinion doesnt mean anything.
yup, yellow pearl. after the SS issue. the car got painted yellow pearl, moldings shaved, and subtle wide fenders just like rj’s car…It was pretty much gonna be like rj’s car but yellow and on 17 inch Racing Hart F24’s. It was actually all done and ready to go except for a motor…Then all of a sudden, he got the idea for the drag car…In fact, i might have a pic of it somewhere…If i find it, i’ll post it…
[QUOTE=JDMBeef24;1933325]Dayum man. You must be old then. LOL. I guess I’m talking about the time when Honda’s were golden. All we had then was Jackson racing, lightspeed and if you were gangster, a ported throttle body
All the Split Sec, Precision and Redline guys agreed this was when it was golden.
“Got Piaa 959’s?”[/QUOTE]
LoL…Yea, I was in caught up in the scene before the Honda/fwd revolution. When the term “jspec” was used instead of “JDM”, when street racing was tolerated by the powers that be and when the game was about creativity, ingenuity and style instead of money and fashion. (there is difference between style and fashion)
From my understanding…the ultimate “JDM” ride would be one, directly imported from Japan in it’s original form. Example a bone stock EG6 vs a EH with all the EG6 parts. Which is more JDM?
Again, this was before Honda’s was popular with the import scene.
If you are only speaking of the Honda scene, then this was before your time.
The link/pics was just a reference.
I don’t expect you to understand though.
“There wasn’t even the term “ricey” then. More like “Yeah, I’m cool on that”.”
Back in the days, we use to use the term “wack” to describe something that we didn’t like.
And “fresh” or tite" for something we like.
It was stated that the term “JDM” mean “I like it”
I guess ricey mean that “i hate it”
I want to believe that term rice came about around the same time Honda’s started to be come popular in the scene. I do recall my car being called a “rice cooker” once or twice.
brian’s rice-boy website started the term around 95-96…
“jdm” term came around the same time but was not popular yet.
before then, jdm was just called the “clean” look by our crew…we were always going for Mugen, even back then…the shit just costed so much that we couldn’t afford most of it.
i have seen this shit grow from 5 honda’s @ maria and anna streets in compton in 1989 to 100’s hondas taking over the street races at around 93. way before battle of the imports.
