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

spoon making axle backs for the coupe now or still need custom fab'd?
i was told by the guy at Opakracing that the EG9 is a direct fit to the US spec Coupe. ill have to custom fab the cat converter/ test pipe though since the Spoon B-pipe is longer because of the different cat size compared between Japan and the US. im going to look into finding out if the spoon axel back bolts up to the stock pipeing and if so im gonna look for the stock setup in the junk yard and take off the whole HKS so i can sell it sooner then later.

the more i hear go wingless the more i want it on. i hate it like this. if i have to go wingless im selling the car and im not starting a new build. it looks just like every civic coupe on the road wingless and i dont like that. i didnt start building this car to please everyone elses taste in what they think looks best on my car. i bought the wing and the airwalker front bumper long before i got into the "scene". thats also before i knew there was a JDM fad and alot of other stuff like knock offs. the wing stays. i do take it off from time to time to tease those who really hate it...

lol i just like giving you guys shit from time to time... and yes to me the wing is that serious. being one of two known coupes with it on, both which are on this forum btw lol, its kinda my special part. that and no one rocks it so its an instant hit for me. i like having stuff that no one usually puts on. it creates something unique and if i do say so i think it flows rather nice with the car at certain angles lol.

Spoon Sports Red Lugnuts
Image Image Spoon Sports EG9/EK4 Axel back
Image Image Image i have the lugs on with the Mugen MR5s and found out the Spoon Muffler mounts to the HKS B pipe... but ill have a small leak until i change the B pipe cause the HKS and the Spoon use two different gaskets. Spoon is also damn near a 1/2 inch bigger in piping diameter then the HKS and alot louder lol. sounds f'n great even with the small leak lol.
