True JDM: November 2013

Japanese Years vs Gregorian calendar

Japan has a quite different year counting system from the rest of the world. It is called Nengo, and each era is associated with one Emperor. The year an emperor ascends the throne is the first year of a new era, and the era stays the same as long as the emperor reigns.

Era	Hieroglyph	The beginning of the reign
Meiji	明治	1868
Taishou	大正	1912
Showa	昭和	1926
Heisei	平成	1989

And remember, score twice before you cut once
Let’s get back to the meat. Suspension tuning involves modifying the springs, shock absorbers, swaybars, and other related components of a vehicle.
