More Info About JDM Cars

JDM Cars Are Legendary

A vehicle to suit nearly any taste and budget!

A lot of people ask what does JDM mean or stand for? JDM stands for "Japanese Domestic Market" which are vehicles produced in Japan for their domestic market exclusively. What makes these cars special is that many are "super" models that were never made available outside of Japan or if the model was available outside of Japan, usually the JDM model has more power and other better features not available overseas. Consequently "grey market" vehicle markets to import these vehicles around the world has been a thing of nearly cult status for decades with each market in the world having specific needs, desires and tastes. The JDM car scene is thriving around the world and with each area having its own style and taste in vehicles. However with that said there are certain models of vehicles, especially high peformance cars that are universally popular thanks to moves like "The Fast and Furious".

History of JDMVIP.com

How It All Started

JDMVIP.com was founded in 2007 and quickly became the authority on everything JDM because no information was available on how to purchase and import JDM cars. All that could be found before this site was tidbits on various forums and blogs, much of what turned out to be untrue or even incorrectly placed by companies in Japan or friends of companies in Japan. Thus making the "Unbiased" portion of this site extremely important we are the only third party with information on the scene and companies in Japan. The only other sources still out there are made by Exporting Car companies in Japan who's quality, integrity and accuracy of information greatly varies. If you have a question or want to verify something ask our community, you will either gain more trust with your current company or perhaps you could help others by warning our members of a serious problem with a company you've encountered (often many issues in Japan go unreported or are hidden through a network of social media spam and friends of the company). JDMVIP.com levels the playing field giving both a better opportunity for both the Export companies and buyers of cars from Japan.

Unbiased Information about JDM Cars/Japanese Imports

Click here to join our importing exporting JDM Cars discussion forums


The inspiration for our community grew since 2004 since the rise of imports of amazing Japanese cars from Japan's domestic market (JDM), most of which were previously unavailable in markets outside Japan.

Examples of why people find jdmvip.com so useful:
  • Researching JDM Cars, Ask Us Anything and We Can Help
  • Car Specifications
  • Reviews of JDM Cars
  • Importing/Exporting Japanese Used Cars
  • Parts and Suggestions
  • Engine Information
  • Car Maintenance
  • Common and Problems and Solutions for
In that time there have been many different websites, communities and of course companies formed to serve the JDM Import Car enthusiast community.  Unfortunately since this is the automotive industry, there are a lot of underhanded and dishonest things that do go on when it comes to JDM Cars.

Most concerning of all are communities sponsored by different JDM import companies that ensure negative opinions and information cannot be circulated about their dealings, many hiding under the guise of being an enthusiast site and trying to claim they are unbiased.  There are certainly many great communities and importers to serve the needs of the import community but there are perhaps just as many that are waiting to take advantage of unsuspecting JDM Japanese Used car buyers.

Unlike many other communities and sites, we have absolutely no involvement or ties to anyone in this industry.  We are individuals who want to get the most out of Japan's finest offerings of JDM Cars and help others do the same.

This site was created first and foremost with the consumer in mind. Our goal is to provide real exciting, unbiased and factual information about the excellent variety of JDM cars available for import.

We hope you enjoy our growing community and the wealth of information it will continue to be for as long as the JDM scene is alive.

We'd also like to remind everyone that JDMVip.com welcomes all its members from around the world including government officials and import/export companies to be a part of our site.

Legacy: 2000 Legacy B4 RSK Build Help Hey! New to the forum but have some random questions about my newly imported 2000 Legacy B4 RSK. It has an EJ206 Sequential Turbo. I recently took it to a performance shop and I told them I wanted to aim for 400-500 WHP. They said that the EJ I have is a weaker one and would not take it. They suggested I go 320-350 max. Said they would do STI injectors, downpipe and full exhaust, tune with mechanical boost controller. If i wanted to do mapping, I'd have to do a standalone ecu which would be $3000+ just for that. I am wondering if anyone here has one and have been able to do a build to get more out of it reliably as a daily driver. Also, any information or suggestions on what potential this car has and what I could do with would be amazing! I imported it here to the US. I have tried youtube and many other sites. Information on building one of these is apparently rare from the digging I did. Thanks!....
General Discussion: Consult a licence crypto forensic recovery experts: Alpha spy nest After months of saving, I invested a substantial amount of my crypto assets into what appeared to be a promising online investment platform. The site was sleek, the representatives were convincing, and the returns seemed realistic at first. But within weeks, things changed. Withdrawals were blocked, customer support vanished, and my wallet was drained. In desperation, I sought help online. That’s when the second wave of losses began recovery scams. Each one promised to trace my funds, retrieve them, and bring the scammers to justice for a fee. I paid, I waited, and I got nothing. Over and over. I was losing hope. Then I was introduced to Alpha Spy Nest by a tech-savvy friend from a crypto forum. At first, I was skeptical it felt like yet another promise in a sea of deception. But Alpha Spy Nest was different. Their approach was methodical. They did ask for payment upfront. They analyzed the blockchain trail of my stolen funds and provided detailed reports of where the assets had been m....
General Discussion: Consult alpha spy nest experts for your lost btc/eth/usdt recovery journey. After losing a significant sum to a crypto investment scam, my world fell apart. The project had promised high returns, backed by convincing whitepapers and slick online campaigns. I invested heavily, trusting the team behind it, only to wake up one morning to a vanished website, unreachable founders, and my wallet drained. Desperate to recover my funds, I turned to so-called recovery experts online. One after another, they promised results, demanded upfront payments, and disappeared just like the scammers before them. Each failed attempt not only cost me more money but left me emotionally shattered and deeply mistrustful.That’s when I stumbled upon Alpha Spy Nest, a digital forensic team renowned for their ethical, transparent, and deeply technical approach to cyber asset recovery. Skeptical but out of options, I reached out to them. From our first conversation, they were different, no pressure, no promises of overnight miracles. Instead, they asked for evidence, transaction hashes, w....

General Discussion: Hire solace cyber workstations for your crypto recovery One chilly Friday morning, I found myself scrolling through TikTok when I stumbled upon a broker that seemed too good to be true. The scammers claimed they were offering pool investments for Bitcoin investors, allowing individuals to choose from various packages to invest. They provided videos of real trades and impressive profit-and-loss (PNL) screenshots, showcasing their success and enticing me to join in. Their polished presentations and persuasive tactics made it easy to believe that I was on the brink of significant earnings. Eager to replicate their success, I invested $95,300, convinced that I was making a smart financial decision. It didn’t take long for the reality to set in. As I attempted to engage with the broker for updates, communication gradually declined. My messages went unanswered, and the once vibrant community I had joined became eerily silent. It soon became clear to me that I was dealing with a fake broker. The scammers vanished, taking my funds with them, leavin....
General Discussion: Don't lose your crypto forever, contact solace cyber workstations for recovery The booming remote job market in the cryptocurrency sector is eager to hire someone who can leverage their skills and passion for blockchain technology. I came across a job listing for a "Crypto Portfolio Manager" that seemed perfect. The website looked professional, and the communication with the hiring team was polished and convincing. After a series of interviews, I was thrilled to receive an offer. However, I was informed that to secure my position, I needed to pay a $23,000 "training deposit" in Bitcoin. Trusting the process and excited about the opportunity, I transferred the funds, believing this was a necessary step toward my dream job. Unfortunately, after sending the Bitcoin, the company vanished without a trace. I felt a wave of panic wash over me as I realized I had fallen victim to a sophisticated scam. The weight of my decision hit me hard, and I felt helpless and frustrated. In my search for a solution, I discovered SOLACE CYBER WORKSTATIONS, a firm dedicated to helping ....

Off Topic/Chit Chat: How to Find Legitimate Crypto Recovery Companies You Can Trust Three days. That’s all it took for a smooth-talking scammer to wipe out my entire Ethereum savings $81,000 gone in what felt like the blink of an eye. It started innocently enough: a direct message from a self-proclaimed "crypto trading expert" in an online investment group. His profile was polished, filled with screenshots of unbelievable returns and glowing testimonials. His offer? A guaranteed 40% profit in just seven days if I entrusted him with my funds. At first, I was cautious. But his confidence wore me down. He spoke in technical jargon, dropped names of fake trading platforms, and even sent me a fabricated contract that looked legitimate. Against my gut instinct, I transferred my Ethereum to his wallet. For three agonizing days, I refreshed my balance, waiting for the promised gains. Instead, I got silence then demands. First, he claimed there was a "blockchain verification fee." Then, a "liquidity tax" required to release my funds. Each time, he pressured me: "Pay now, or yo....

General Discussion: The Incoming Car Thread I got it at auction. I was originally looking at Kei Vans for a summer adventure vehicle but they're getting pretty overpriced for what they are in my opinion then I found that the Estima's were going for less than the Kei vans. I really liked the Estima, specifically the TCR 21 because of the parts availability here in Canada. I think being able to just say 94 Previa at the auto parts store or find body parts on eBay/the wreckers is going to make my ownership that much more enjoyable compared to something like a Toyota Liteace or Kei van. Also the NA previa didn't come with all three; SC AWD and moonroof like I was able to get from Japan. Yeah, the 80s Toyota's are so rugged and utilitarian, they'll kick and buck but they never stop driving down the road. In the 90s though Toyota really refined everything and really improved things like their fuel injection imo.....

Toyota General: GS450h OCV VVTi Oil Control Valve Part Numbers I am currently getting a P0022 which is "Camshaft Position A - Timing Over-Retarded Bank 2". Other symptoms are rough running, some hesitation/buzzing at low RPMs that slowly is getting worse and creeping to higher RPMs and less fuel economy. My first thought was maybe OCV and the mechanic thinks so. I decided it is easier to troubleshoot by replacing both valves on bank 2 (the left side). The car has a total of 4 OCVs and 3 are identical and 1 is different. This car is odd in that it has 3 identical VVTi Valve's The part is as follows (quantity 3): 15330-31020 2 of these go entirely on the right side of the car. Then the third goes on the left side of the car (I believe on the intake side). The 4th single OCV Part # (quantity 1): 15340-31020 Again on the left side bank I am not sure which of the two different ones goes where but I believe the unique one goes on the exhaust side (which would be the left most sensor) and 1 of the 3 above goes on the intake side.....
