I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Re: The new SF5 DD
Got some free Tein S.Techs, and sold my old Prodrives and picked up these DR-31s, fit much better.

Re: The new SF5 DD
Just scooped some Cusco Zero-1 coilovers Sunday, they've been sitting in dudes garage for almost 5 years so they're a little rough, but the price was worth the effort to restore. I got all the collars free, all the camber bolts came out without breaking, dampers rebound and have plenty of resistance, and I got some new dust boots coming from Cusco (6-8 weeks from Japan). All thats left is to break the bottom portion of the struts (where they mount to the vehicle) free, gonna take them to work where I can actually use a vice, the floor in the garage isnt working for me haha.
Starting the teardown:
Soaking in Coke to break rust free:
Camber plates before and after cleaning up:
Prepping for paint:
Also got some HIDs a couple weeks ago, Xentec 35w bi-xenon for the headlights (they're suppost to be 5000k, but they look like 6000k to me, eBay, meh). And got the fogs, Xentec 35w 6000k, for free from a buddy.
