I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Nopi show on Speed - JDM Cavalier?

Post by CivicSpoon » January 12, 2006

I'm watching some Nopi show on Speed right now. They had some guy who converted his '98 Cavalier to RHD with some EDM Porche engine/tranny. But the thing is...they interviewed the guy and had "JDM Cavalier" under his name on the screen; wtf?! :roll: Why are people so f*cking stupid? If someone just doesn't know what the hell they're talking about, when it comes to cars, they shouldn't be editing video about cars. Damn redneck jackasses. "Uhhh...gee. That thur muss be one of those fansy japo-neese thangs in that Cavalier. Yee hah".

well I'll be damned. But I just lost a little respect for Toyota :lol: But still, it had a chevy emblem still on and a Porche setup; nothing jdm about that. If anything they should have said EDM "style" instead.

yeah i remember hearing about the toyota cavalier... infact i researched this a few years back because my buddy was interested... toyota bought the rights to use the cavalier from GM for 1 year to see how the sells would do in japan, infact they also made a jdm camaro,

difference being, rhd, taillights, and side markers.
