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

WRONG...

most likely everything is original but the outside paintwork...

in japan they seldomly paint the engine bay when they get a respray... believe, I've seen LOADS of great cars with the wrong color engine bay... if it used to be black that's no prob, but in a case like this, it shows TOO much...

No, you can see a bit of the fender and where the front bumper starts, and its all white. Not a bit of red. And why would they swap in a SOHC engine.

@Merilious: true... you don't see those parts when the hood is closed... so they don't paint that... Many Japanese cars have that there... And again: it's NOT a swap

@DA_9: No offence, but why is it any worse than doing it to any other car, from anywhere?

I know you guys are very keen on keeping stuff not too much altered when it comes to visual aspects of the car, but you should understand that different parts of the world give different ideas on all of this... I've seen much worse in Japan... this is actually not too bad...
