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: After all this time.... Zero's build BEGINS!!!!
well anyways i was having problems with the ITR rear sway and i found out that i was missing some bushings that go where the endlinks connect >_< i got those immediately and the problem was fixed. the car drives awesome but i need to learn its perks and what i can and can not do before i decide if i want to up grade the front to the Si setup.
Re: After all this time.... Zero's build BEGINS!!!!
when im on a luck streak im on a fuckin luck streak. litterally found a Used Spoon front lower tie bar over night locally so i snatched it up for a BILL. saved $50 lol. i was thinkin of getting this so i could tighten up the front alittle better so i could decide if i want to upgrade to the Si 26mm that i have waiting or not. we shall see later after i drive it how i feel about it.

Re: After all this time.... Zero's build BEGINS!!!!
now that ive driven the car i can tell that the front needs the 26mm sway. the understeer is more apparent then i thought. also after thinking about it more carefully i can understand why i need the 26mm in conjuntion with the 23mm. there is much more weight in the front and the stock 22mm isnt strong enough to absorb the force. the rear 23mm eliminated any of the rear flex BUT i can still feel the front having problems.
so now i need to find some endlinks for the stock Si front swaybar asap so i can get it all installed.

Re: After all this time.... Zero's build BEGINS!!!!
Just went through all 70 pages...yeah Im at work with nothing to do...lol. Car has been through many changes and all for the better. Nice score on the Spoon lower front tie. I wonder if it fits with the "H/U" brace? Probably not because I think the Spoon bracket is to shallow to clear the FWD mounting of the "H/U" brace. Spoon would be there for bling only anyway...lol..."H/U" brace ties up more solid anyway with 4 point lock down. Anyway I did learn that you can run Cruise Control with the B16B. Wasnt sure if they would rock together. Im looking at another EM1 that has two major things done to it that would save me money by just buying, swapping parts from current, selling current and moving on. One of which is the B16B swap and he currently doesnt have CC on it. Lucky for me I have a parts EM1 that could donate the CC. Keep up the good work mang. Oh and unless you are planning to purchase new OEM end links or aftermarket...I may be able to pull off the fronts from my parts EM1...

Oh, and I say no to the rear lip...hold out and find Mugen Spats!
- On another note...do you still have connections in Japan? I used to but I moved back to the states 10yrs ago so my car peeps arent there anymore. My brother-in-law is there but isnt a car nut like most of us...but I ask because I may need a couple parts in a rush and dont want to have to search if someone can hook it up.

Re: After all this time.... Zero's build BEGINS!!!!
dont know anyone any more in Japan unfortunately and the only thing im missing for the 26mm front is the OEM endlinks which is what im lookin for.
if i could find mugen spats i would but the price of them is gonna be through the roof. i have CC workin on my car with the B16b.

new pics from today that i liked. couldnt find a place i felt would be best for pics with the time of the day it was.
first pic was taken at a car show i attended. i got 4th in JDM class cause a crowd vote which IMHO was alittle biased.
second pic is by far my new favorite vertical shot hands down.
i also went to a local place and got ahold of some washers and bolts which i then painted a metalic silver.
