I'd get rid of the background image. Other than that, very nice site!

EDIT: Lot of validation errors (http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jdmnagoyaautoparts.com% 2F&charset=(detect+automatically)&doctype=Inline&group=0), but I'm thinking it's just a few that are repeating or causing a domino effect

True, background image slows loading and distracts focus from content. Don't want to look like myspace page.

I concur with the above comments, the background image on the homepage is a nono, I noticed it's missing once you browse into the car models. You're also missing a soft border on the bottom edge but that is a much smaller issue than the background image right now.

Agreed. Internal pages have a gray BG and that is good.
The site is good. You are a WP pro!
Another thing though - the 3d backgrounds in the menu look too prolific.

Maaaan! :mad: What does open source has to do with not specifying the alt for img's and placing h2 tags inside the <a> tags! :mad: To make advanced web sites and not paying attention to such things is criminal! [-X

I know, I did work on those things becuase other things got my attention. Sorry :)

Did anyone questioned the potential of open source or my web dev abilities? \\:D/

I hate that too. I hate it more when a lot of people here in the forums are saying it sucks, as I said to the client when he send me the image.

"your image is too large for this site. I cannot decrease the file size to an acceptable level. Using this image will increase your costs as a large image will up your bandwidth, also users of dialup may become frustrated the site is taking so long to load that they will leave it entirely"
