AFAIK, it stands for "Japanese Domestic Market" - basically, a car imported from Japan, not a UK/Euro/US spec model. :)

Much better. :thumb:

More equipment, more diffs, generally better equipped.

lo buddy. For the money you're looking to spending you'll def get more bang for your buck going for a JDM model. I didn't get one because at the money I was spending I wanted the better resale value.

The main difference is you get a better turbo (I'm sure there are other differences) but they don't have the same rust protection or alarm/immob or tracker !!!

If any of the above is wrong someone feel feel to correct me :thumb:

View My Scoob. Not available in the UK but the spec is way above the current UK models.

Deepnding on Model, the turbo, block (JDM STi Classics not bulit for the UK market), rear wiper, Spec, performance are different. Three door cars (less P1/22B) not available in the UK.

Personally I'd say much better but it all depends on what you want form the car, Also depends on the Cars model and Model year :D

Jap Spec's & power better
Jap suspension is normally to hard for UK roads;)

New cars standard warrenty UK have 3 year JDM's 1 year

IMHO

For the money you're throwing around. Just be careful. Auction sheets will help.
