JDM decryption. JDM - What is? Japanese Domestic Market.

17.10.2020

JDM.- Reduction from " Japanese Domestic Market."The Japanese domestic market is often used in relation to automotive culture and Japanese style as a whole.

Initially, the reduction in JDM was used to designate products from Japan, but now is used for the most part to Japanese automotive culture and style. However, Kandzusok (the scandalous street riders of Osaka) are considered otherwise:

Kandzoku - the scandalous street riders of Osaka.

According to Kandzuzok, what is now going under the JDM sign, not really a real JDM. When we see something jdm and popular, in fact, this is the strongest Effect of USDM - a reduction from the United States Domestic Market "The domestic market of the United States. All because foreign fans took from the style of JDM what they liked, and adjusted under their culture. This hybrid brought back to Japan, and people began to copy it. Therefore, the fact that now the youth calls JDM, not a real JDM. This JDM originated on the kandze.

Kandze is an annular freeway around the Osaka, a long 7680 meters.

You can compare Candzo only with the most famous expensive Japan Vangan (Racing on Vangan is also a whole culture, manga is written about them, anime and even a full-length film, but I will try to tell about it another time). Although there is really nothing more different. Vangan is a long, wide and straight, ideal for very powerful turbomachins that are chased by him. Kanzo is shorter, already it is straightforwards are tied with close turns and sharp transitions. And if Vangan is for power, then Kanzo is for manageability.

How it all began.

Cobly hobby began in the mid-80s. In those days, the third generation of Honda Sivik appeared, which in Japan was called "Miracle" Sivik ("Wonder" Civic), this car quickly became the favorite of Kandzok.

You ask why Sivik?


Firstly, the Siviki of the second and third generations became the Ring Championships in the country. Secondly, for more than a thirty-year history of this culture of a better car for "checkers" in the stream, they simply did not find: a small weight, with the progressive design of the suspension, was provided by the Kartijka kart.

Finally, the legendary high-breasted engines with the VTEC valve lifting height change system are ideal for such races. Their power is optimal, the reliability is high, and the response to the accelerator is instant.


But back to the races, competitions on ring races in the country, took place on several highways, among whom "Suzukka" is a track built near Osaka, back in 1961. At the Suzuka Avtodrome, Sivikov's monocubment passed. Fan groups were collected in the stands, but some of them wanted to feel the adrenaline and the spirit of racing on themselves, without leaving the limits of their native city, and the admirers brought this style of monocubs, right on Kandep. So they originated "Kandzusoka" - Gang Candze. The word "gang" is not attracted for the ears: these were full "disassembly" on common roads. The teams competed with each other, lightningly penetrating traffic. One battle of motors and driver's skills was not limited, and often such races were resettle into fights. It is from here that the concept of JDM occurred from Osaka / Kansai.

What tuning is subjected to "Candze Reisers" their Honda?

There are few external differences from the factory configuration, but not to notice them is impossible. On the hubs are shods of lightweight disks with Slik type tires or "harsh". The fact that they cannot be used on the public roads, as evidenced by the inscription on the sidewall, of course, no one confuses. The body is strong, although not extremely, pressed against the ground - the regular suspension is inferior to the vehicle with height adjustments and rigidity.


The aerodynamic kit is mounted infrequently and is limited to laconic overlays from Mugen or Spoon. The body may have a bright kel or factory shade, but in order to evade the police, the Sivik can repaint hardly every week. The interior of the racing ascetic: rear seats and upholsters here not to find, but there is a safety frame that increases the rigidity of the body, there are bucket seats and multiple belts.

Sports entourage adds a grid on the driver's door window. In motor racing, it serves as protection in case of a coup, and in the city protects from identifying the face of Kanzho Reiser. The same goals are subject to the tilted number of license plates - plates look "into the sky" or "into the ground" and unreadable for cameras. Technically cars are not refined radically, because for the needs of Kanzho Civic Type-R has everything necessary. And if the basis is taken by an ordinary or earlier modification, the replacement for the Motor of the "B" series from the "hot" version is the most popular procedure. The main alterations of such an engine are reduced to the installation of the direct-flow release and the cold inlet system with the zero resistance air filter.

Now it's time to clarify what the Candze scene is today. After years later, the passions were silent, the riders were matured, and the local police seriously tightened the nuts, and modern Kanzho could hardly be distinguished from the friendly meeting of the car enthusiasts club. No, the races on the "top floor" of the city did not share anywhere, but lost their mass and infinite character, while maintaining the spirit and romance.

And it does not matter whether the person has the origin of the direction or is just beginning to comprehend this culture, owns the third Sivik or the sixth, is studying in college or raises children - everyone unites love for the Candze. Each time, going to parking, these people are waiting for meetings with the charm of the night flight, from the walls of which is so melodiously reflected Ryiv Vtec-Motor ... The admirers of this culture are around the world, including in Russia, but it is possible to love real sushi, nor Once without having been in Japan? So with Candze: There is only one way to feel his spirit - to land at the airport "Kansai", in the late evening to squeeze in the close "bucket" of Sivik and unscrew its engine into the cut-off.

In recent years, the direction of JDM or Russian Buwami Ji Di Em has gained very high popularity in Russia, but most JDM has limited the "Domo" sticker on the Lobovukha Seven Zhiguli. And what is this most JDM?
Wikipedia gives us this is the answer.

Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) (English. Japanese domestic market or the Japanese domestic market) is a term common in terms of cars (like other goods) sold in the Japan market. Usually models of cars intended for JII, differ from the same models intended for other markets, or do not at all have foreign analogues.

The main manufacturers of car models for JDM are the Japanese companies:
Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Mitsubishi, Mazda, Suzuki, Subaru, Isuzu, Daihatsu, Mitsuoka
Imports in the JDM market is presented slightly, mainly models of the Premium and Suite segment, as well as models of Japanese firms produced abroad.

Once, what kind of clever told me - "My prior in some sense, the same JDM is obtained, it is on the domestic market of Russia, and it turns out that this is Russian live di uh not?" In some sense he is right, but the features of Jediem had a rich equipment of cars and a lot of strength under the hood, because it is known for the Slogan of Japanese automotive production - "Everything for the driver."

From the beginning of 2009, by decree of Prime Minister of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin, by virtue of new customs duties, which increased the cost of vehicles with a motor volume of more than 2000 cubic meters. See, and this segment was most in demand at the car market of Russia. The so-called passing threshold has also decreased (if earlier customs duties applied only on a car over seven years old, now it also concerns the cars over five years old). This caused dissatisfaction with the inhabitants of many regions of Russia, but no multiple all-Russian protests and weighty arguments could change the government's decisions. As a result, the import of used cars from the country of the rising sun declined by about 90% (since only small volume machines up to 1000 cu can now enter the adequate price range. See)

Mostly, Russian car mechanics received knowledge about automatic transmission, CVT, air conditioners, electronics, engines, transmissions, suspension and other nodes of modern Japanese cars due to this very JDM. For example, we thank them)

And now we go to the explanation of all the stickers favorite people

Koleshiya, Koreisha.

These two words have one sense. Just consumes two options. For various spelling and pronunciation of the English version with Japanese. Just as, someone says Mitsubishi, and someone "Mitsubishi". With Japanese this can be understood as " Elderly sign "Or clearer" sign-elderly driver. "Koleshiya serves as an identification sign of drivers who are more than 70 years old. After reaching 75 years of age, the icon or sticker should be on the car must. But Koleshiya can be placed by drivers and up to 70 years, if their Age can reflect on driving. The Japanese can not come up with something just so that everything should be logic and meaning .Soshinoya and Koleshiya symbolize leaves .Soshinoya as you can see in the photo above, yellow-green. Smell is a new green leaf, Symbolizing youth. It is the leaves in the fall, that is, the transition to more adult condition.koleshiya as can be seen yellow-orange. The transition from an adult state in more mature. That is an almost poetic value. .
BBRRRRR ..... Start! And here the leaves and driving skills of civil drivers? We are talking about cars on Stayle! Now we will talk about the meaning of these stickers in JDM style. Everything is completely simple .Soshinoya is New School.

Most likely it will be a car after the 80s, 85th year. This is bright colors, the Pösta "Pokleka", modern disk design, without half the cabin with alone buckets, low ground clearance, bodies, and so on. Koleshiya is Old School.

Auto until the 75th, 80s year. Communicable appearance. Original chrome details. Demarks, original or appropriate disk design. Calon is stored in an original form. The details and mechanisms are kept predominantly in stock. Personally protruding Masloler highways, as in Bosozoku style. These stickers are applied regardless of the age of cars. If your car fresh years is made in the Old School style, then it can allocate it by the same Koleshiya sticker.

Soshinoya.
The Japanese is translated as a "new driver", "the driver has just begun," is still referred to as Wakaba. If Soshinoya is used in the sense of inexperience driving by a car, then Wakaba can be attributed to inexperience in any spheres. Changing or magnet Soshinoya notes not experienced drivers whose experience Less than 1 year. You can not remotely remove and after the year. If it comes to the tone of your car. If you just consider your skills not perfect.
"Dude, Check Out My New Soshinoya Badge, NOW My Silvia IS JDM AS FUCK!"

Japanese manufacturers have a bad habit: they are often removed from the production of excellent, fast cars. I will tell you about nine cars, which, in my opinion, deserve the continuation of the model range.

It was rumored that Subaru BRZ would not live longer than one generation. However, fortunately, predictions did not come true: it was. Such luck can boast a few Japanese sports cars.

In the world of automotive, the country of the rising sun enjoys a bad reputation as a killer who does not give a chance to the life of religious cars. Here are nine Japanese sports cars from which we never wait for the heirs.

1. Toyota MR2.

Thanks to the TOYOTA company, there are integer three generations of this sports car with a medium-engine layout. The latter model weighs less tons and is equipped with a 1.8-liter VVTI engine that issues 138 horsepower. On the racing track in the car shows incredibly sports behavior. The model was removed from production in 2006, and since then there is no hearing or spirit about it.

2. Mazda RX-8

Replacing the RX-7 model more affordable RX-8, Mazda began fashion on rotary motors.
The two-engine "Renesis" engine (more known as the Vankel engine) volume of 1.3 liters was available in two versions: 198 or 227 horsepower. He perfectly fit into the rear-wheel drive car with excellent, responsive controllability.

In 2010, the sale of the model in Europe was suddenly discontinued, since the rotary engine did not approach European environmental standards. A year later, production has been suspended in Japan. There were rumors about a possible heir, equipped with a rotary engine, but we never saw it.

3. Honda S2000

Incredible S2000 can be called a classic with confidence. The classic that was brutally killed by the manufacturer. Rear wheel drive, four-liter F20C volume, 240 horses under the hood, engine roof 8300 rpm. What else is needed for happiness?

However, not everyone can curb this monster: the early models did not equip themselves with the anti-slip system, on which it would be possible to rely, if something goes wrong. Demonstrate this car due respect, and in return you will get the perfectly managed, duplicate sports car.

4. HONDA INTEGRA TYPE-R

What is Integra Type-R? Everything is simple. A powerful VTEC engine under the hood, a lightweight interior that promotes a reduction in total weight, front-wheel drive with high friction differential. But, despite the simplicity, an amazing Japanese sports car has been created from these parts, which has better handling among front-wheel drive cars of all time. Type-R was the latest representative of the Integra line. He walked his last sigh in 2006.

5. Toyota Supra

Inside the Toyota Supra, the Toyota Supra managed to hold out the four generations, but in the late 90s he began to gradually disappear from all the shopping areas of the world. The production was suspended in 2002, and since then the Japanese never pampered us new Supra. The last model has become the most popular among motorists. Equipped with a legendary six-cylinder Twin-Turbo 2JZ engine with a volume of 3.0 liters and a capacity of 276 hp, she worked wonders on the road.

We would be very happy to see the inscription "Supra" on one of the following Toyota concepts, such as, for example.

6. Subaru Svx

Even before the world heard about the Impreza model, Subaru was created by creating a powerful luxury sports car, and their efforts were not in vain. SVX was equipped with a 227-silent six-cylinder engine of 3.3 liters. Just take a look at the stunning design of this all-wheel drive monster. However, the high price and many shortcomings became the result of a loud failure of SVX. The production was suspended in 1996, and Subaru were forced to return to the study of the old good market GT. In spite of everything, it would be interesting to look at the heir of this car.

7. MASDA 6 MPS

Thanks to its turbocharged four-cylinder engine of 2.3 liters, output power in 256 hp, a stylish all-wheel drive sedan Mazda 6 MPS will turn away from 0 to 100 km / h in 6.4 seconds. The maximum stated vehicle speed is almost 240 km / h. Unfortunately, the manufacturer decided not to continue the MPS line in the second generation Mazda 6. The third generation also did not please us the heir.

Alas, a car was sold not as I would like, so the decision to terminate the production of 6 MPs is quite justified, although it is very sad. After removing the 3 MPS, RX-8 and 6 MPS models, the only car with a sports spirit. On the other hand, a used 6 MPS today can be grapted for snots.

8. Mitsubishi 3000GT / GTO

The famous sports coupe of the 90s, equipped with a 280-strong three-liter V6 engine, turned out to be really incredibly abrupt. In addition to speed, the car pleased us from the technological side. Active climate control, electronic adjustment of the suspension, exhaust control - all these technologies outpare time. That is what has become a problem. If some electronics failed (and she loved to do it), the owner of 3000GT was forced to leave a round sum in the service. Given this fact, Mitsubishi decided to make subsequent models less "stuffed".

Production was stopped in 2000, and since then no one has heard anything about GTO or 3000GT. It is not surprising, because the model walked extremely unreliable. In this regard, it is unlikely to hope for the heir, although a sports compartment is exactly the car that is missing today in the Mitsubishi line.

9. Nissan Silvia.

A tight piece of the Japanese auto industry called Silvia is rooted, which was produced from 1965 to 1968. The model was resurrected under the name "S10", followed by S11, S12, S13, S14 and, finally, S15. The S15 model was equipped with a four-cylinder turbocharged SR20DET engine from Nissan, a volume of 2.0 liters and a capacity of 250 hp. However, in 2002, production stopped, and the world never saw Silvia.

Nissan and to this day produces sports cars, for example 370z, or GT-R, but we did not please the direct heir to Silvia.

After all, the second part of this article will appear soon, I will tell you another one dozen wonderful sports JDM cars that the Japanese mercilessly destroyed!

Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) (Japanese domestic market or Japanese domestic market) is a term common in car (like other goods) sold in the Japan market.

Usually, models of cars intended for Japan differ from the same models intended for other markets, or at all do not have foreign analogues.

The main manufacturers of car models for JDM are Japanese companies: Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Mitsubishi, Mazda, Suzuki, Subaru, Isuzu, Daihatsu, Mitsuoka.

Imports in the JDM market is presented slightly, mainly models of the Premium and Suite segment, as well as models of Japanese firms produced abroad. JDM is the second by volume, yielding only the US market. For JDM models, quite rich equipment and high technical characteristics are characterized. A distinctive feature is practically obligatory automatic transmission and air conditioning. JDM models have the so-called "right steering wheel" (hereinafter referred to, that is, the steering wheel is located on the right relative to the longitudinal axis of the car. The lighting of the road is made in accordance with the norms of the left-sided movement, that is, the headlights shine left and have a focused picture, which historically coincides with the norms of Great Britain and Ireland, since it was from there to the imperial Japan the first cars got into the imperial Japan. In Japan, imported left-handed models are allowed to operate, the possession of which, on the contrary, raises the status of the owner due to the rarity and, as a rule, high-cost such cars.

The usual lifetime of the car in Japan is 3-5 years, less often than 7 years. Next, keep the old car becomes economically not beneficial in connection with the stringent requirements of state-owned technical control, which is why cars are very inexpensive for sale, mainly on specially organized for this auction. The buyer of such a car can be a person from any state. The ability to "painlessly" change the old car for a new one is ensured by a very developed lending system in Japan and Trade-in. The buyer gives the dealer of the old car at the residual value, and this cost goes to the initial contribution for the new, so the buyer just continues to pay a loan. As a result, the buyer constantly pays interest on the loan and always goes on a fairly fresh car.

JDM STYLEJDM LOGO JDM, like style. In general, the terms of the JDM AS FUCK (JDM as E * La), Eat Sleep JDM more belongs to the Americans. In Japan, cars with such stickers or the use of these words you are unlikely to meet. Well, I didn't even meet such stickers in Japan on a car . Here you will not find bright LCD displays, huge 20 inch wheels and other attributes inherent American ai stoppers. Of course, this does not mean that all cars in this style, it is wildly expensive carbon pieces with tanks per 1 liter of gasoline. It is quite difficult for the city to move on such monsters. But in general, the hint of motor racing is almost all cars of this direction. Towing hooks are not hidden, but on the contrary sticking out of the bumpers, and in a pair with stickers indicating them. The missed headlights of the cross for the cross so that in case of an accident, the glass or plastic is not spilled with small fragments along the highway. Talking from the grille of the radiator and the bumper of the Maskuller's highway on the Old school JDM Karah, the salon is unloaded to the metal. In general, it all went to the streets with the addition of already different features.

Jdm_style_1. Special brightness of JDM style is particularly drifted by Karam. Do not be surprised if you see a huge sofa called Mark or Tourer V which is picked up all in mirror, shiny stickers, on different disks of painted in wild colors, and the car itself is pink. Or the same way. In the shreds, the sprinkled 240SX, with the bumper assembled from its particles bonded by plastic ties.

All the same it is the classic color of JDM culture is white. It is white in Japan is considered to be the color of sports karov and rapid cars. For example, as in the UK, a classic racing is considered a dark green one. But the main palette is again bright and acidic colors. JDM Machines This is not a chalk. This is a car anyway associated with different competitions. Therefore, if you train to spit flies with side windows and jammed the wing, just rollace the hammer on it, and on top of putting a couple of bright stickers. Of course, it is more suitable for cars that are again involved or in drifting or ride on the ring and so on. Just riding on a broken auto respect you will not add. In general, this is madness that you just need to understand.

Jdm_style_2 jdm_style_3 Probably one of the main and simple principles of JDM styla is asymmetry. The same stickers are pushed mainly on one side or one place. Optics As in another car, the culture is assigned to their place. It is precisely all this is just a stock, because on the track to break out expensive optics offensively, and faster the car will not go from it. It is often possible to see all the yellow glasses or covered in the headlight. Light bulbs, too, with yellow light. Also popular with fire and faded turn signals, repeaters and fog, but this is rather an Americanized version. After the boom on the drift that especially thundered in America after SEMA show in 2006, for which the stars of Japanese D1 arrived. Nomura, Kumakuba and other famous people. Another American began to be introduced into a Japanese car culture. In terms of the large part, they brought orange turn signals into it, which are generally not found in Japan. Also in the rows of JDM stickers the so-called Shocker was counted. On slang is a "hand gesture." To the Japanese "cross" it does not have such a relationship.

Japanese Domestics Market (JDM) - the term denotes tuning in the internal market of Japan. Clean JDM style is a right-handed car released to 2000, having wide discs of old school, exterior body kit and other elements, significantly changing the stock vector stock design.

JDM style is characteristic:

  1. Swap Engine - replacement of the original engine to more powerful;
  2. Swap transmission - replacement of the gearbox, with automatic transmission on the manual transmission or 5-speed to 6-step;
  3. Changes in adjusting the car suspension, understate with screw adjustable racks (extremely low landing is not a target);
  4. Wheels: with shelf, Old School, with a huge departure;
  5. The hood must be from carbon. It was from the JDM culture to us a fashion came to Carbon. The Japanese were the first to replace heavy metal hoods on lighter from carbon;
  6. Headlights with additional tides on the optics housing;
  7. Optics White or Red Optics
  8. Head optics covered with yellow film or yellow light light bulbs;
  9. Yellow fog lights;
  10. Arch expansion on rivets;
  11. Front spoilers in the form of "tongue" or splitters from charged versions of standard models;
  12. Body color - white, blue, yellow, busty, pink or purple;
  13. Body covering stickers with the image of the Japanese flag - the sun, a yellow-green badge, a snail with a turbine in the shell, inscriptions in the style of "I Love JDM" or "Eat Sleep JDM", images of the piglets.

JDM style does not require compliance with the above. Sometimes it is enough to install low springs and Japanese wrist wheels of the corresponding design and paint them into a lemon color so that the majority guess in this misery, and connoisseurs and connoisseurs - follow Japanese style.


JDM discs?

There are a number of unwrapped rules and concepts, in accordance with which each Japanese model is suitable for a certain set of wheels, usually Japanese manufacturers.

"Right" wheels play a big role in general compliance with the JDM style machine. Usually, the old Japanese models of the 70s - 80s are tested with bizarreland discs, brought to the perfect state, and on modern - or aggressive discs with the "shelf" or a laconic design "rollers" in the Taimato-style.

Arches often put on cars with extenders, the arches often put the wheels with crazy departures, and also do not forget about proper fitment / walls.
