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

My most recent purchase

Post by miyagi » April 05, 2007

So... i borrowed some money from my parents so i could buy a 5th gen CX for a daily driver without completely draining my account. The guy ended up selling to someone else at the last minute for 900, so i regretfully wrote my parents the check back and told them that if something comes up, i might end up needing the cash again, so don't cash the check just yet.

Wellll, they said that's fine and i started browsing honda-tech....

Rather than buying a car just yet, i figured some seats would be a nice addition before carlisle, so at first i was looking at memory fabs... I love the carbon kevlar s68's, but i'm just a little afraid to drive in a fixed seat for long periods of time ... i really don't like them much, and my back tends to hurt after even short trips in a regular seat... so i backed out.

Sooo i called a few places trying to get some ITR Recaros ... and all were sold out... i thought i was screwed and just figured i'd go without seats and roll on my fabric paint spray bombed black 6th gen DX seats for a little while... then a few minutes ago, i found these. :up:

I PMed the guy, and told him i'd try to scrounge up some money. He said alright and ended up getting offline shortly thereafter... I went downstairs to get a poptart and saw that my parents hadn't cashed the check yet.... so i wrote a note telling them not to cash it yet, and went upstairs and PMed the guy again, asking his paypal addy...

as soon as he gets online next and sends me the address, those badboys are mine :up:
