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.

i would of cashed out and bought a ek hatch then took all of the coupe parts and installed them on the hatch then went from there. fresh build, but swap the ex in the hatch also.

yeah thats an idea but i wouldnt have the cash left to do that swap cause of the 2k left to pay on the car...

im kinda mad at myself as well cause i just ran into a deal for a 1985 Porshe 944 for 4k... and its pretty clean so im kinda kicking myself alittle as id love to have it but i dont really want to get rid of the honda either... oh well...

well i have the Mugen MR5s i can use but its on some 14" (dont no the name) fat fives with a crome lip atm and i have some 15" x 6 1/2 Liso rims that im considering... i already started the ordering of the tein basics so hopefully i get them mid week... ill get pictures of what it looks like later when i have my own internet as im currently in the moving process and trying to get things finished for my car.... i still have to get the proportioning valve and e-brake cable for the disk brakes and im getting new poly bushing for the trailing arms put in next week as well... which is why i hope they come in soon so i dont have to take everything apart more then once... ive also been thinking of just getting the hood painted black instead of getting CF... im dieing to use my Red "H" emblem for the front now that i have an Si/Type R grille on it.... more to come when i know it or i have the time and pictures to post them...
