Default Is this forum dead?

Has this JDM forum had pretty much zero discussion over the last month? Seems dead.

No surprise. The S2000 is discontinued, so there's not going to be much in the way of new developments from the JDMs.

IMO it has more to do with the usdm products stepping up in both positive and negative ways. The hondata flashpro, the k24 ivtec kit, and other independent vendors with items representing the positive growth of usdm. Then you have the replicators selling copies on ebay, the forum, and it creates a jdm free zone. Heck even jdm these days aren't so jdm with so many things outsourced to china/taiwan.

I also may say that with the current economy and the future turn around is not healthy enough for aftermarket manufactures to invest in R&D. Also the authorize dealers and middle men are bellying up, those remain in the game increase the price beyond reasonable for the average buyers to afford.

These combo are enough to cripple the game.

On another note, the JDM Forum is alot slower (basically dead) since we do not have a sponsor anymore providing us with threads for either new products, or thought/discussion threads.
