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

After all this time.... Zero's build BEGINS!!!!

build threads. post pics & specs & brag about your ride.

bought a few things today. got a CRV cluster, a newer door panel (both of mine need to be replaced but could only afford one >_< ) some new rotors and brakes for the front... oh and i also found an exhaust leak that i need to fix... just need to either tighten the bolts down or make a new gasket...

nothing really. the tack ends at 8k instead of 8.5k and the outer ring is orange instead of blue... honestly it reminds me of the Si cluster but made for a motor that doesnt rev as high... oh and it lights up red like the Type R and the Si cluster... and its a straight swap as its identicle to the civic cluster. ill post pictures of it later. i personally like it much better then my Ex cluster and i only paid $80 for it.

here ya go! im gonna take the CRV apart and set it at the difference of the other cluster... basically if i want to know the mileage of the chassis all i need to do is add 140k this will be much better as ill also know how much i have put on the motor since ive owned it... i wouldnt be able to do that with a Japanese cluster as its in kilometers.

me either thats why i had to get one. it helps that i know a guy in a junkyard too cause he gave it to me for just $80. the only thing is the CTR now revs off the tack even more since i lost 500 rpms lol
