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

New car - MKIII

Post by Kuban » January 18, 2007

I just bought this about ehh a week ago. Pretty fun ride. Previous owner put a new 7mgte in it about 20k miles ago, with that came a 3 year 30k mile warranty from jasper performance. It also has a Upgraded CT-26 with a T04e 50-trim compressor wheel, unclipped. Full 3" turbo back with n1 cat-back system. 3" test pipe in place of resonator, no cat. Runs about 11psi on low boost and dyno's around 330rwhp/300ftlb's of tq at 11psi. The TEMS works beautifully still. Slotted rotors all around with ceramic pads. The Targa is also a nice feature in the spring/summer im sure. The shocks are Apex'i ride height and 7 way damping adjustable. The softest setting is comparable to stock and the firmest will knock out the fillings in your teeth. I love em. They are currently set about half way on the rideheight and 4/7 firmness. The springs are Eibach Pro Kit. MKIV rims, they are front 17x 8.5 and rear 17 x 9.5. Its pretty decent, body is perfect. Moral = i love it.

Barrett is me. Lol. Yeah, Those DSMs... I like how every time I say you should get a car you say you hate it, then you end up getting one later. The 240, the dsm(s), Supra was the only car that you tried to convince me to get, lol
