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

I need the front end realigned and the new carbon hood, canards, front lip and a few things... Previous owner rear ended something and the repair shop decided that self tapping screws and shitty alignment would be ok, so I plan to tear that off and replace it with a correct 99-00 Civic Si core support.

On with the pics...

I'm interested.

Next pieces to come...

So... I talked to my friend Omar last night that works at Nocturnal Motorsports. Turns out he is finally ready to build a full cage for an EK chassis.

So far the cage will be tight throughout the chassis. The rear seat floor brace bar, "X" brace door bars, rear "X" brace bars, dash bars that will go through the air vents for the windows and up through the engine bay and replace the entire core support.

Front carpet and everything will remain and then stripped and gutted rear hatch along with rhino-lining that rear section as well and maybe the rear panels to keep it looking fairly cleaned up as well...

Examples... Image Image Image

Lol, a few people on other forums are telling me that it won't be street legal. I think that is kind of the damn point.

As for the CTR, that cage is awesome. And tell him thank you for posting pics to give myself and my shop great ideas.
