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

Yea man thanks for the effort but the only thing he would be able to tell me is that i deffiantely need a new transmission :lol: , his tegra is fwd and my car is rwd, thus the conversion is completely different, although i def give him props for accomplishing such a darring feat.
