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

When it came it was wrapped really nice and everything was clean. Sure that's only minor stuff, but regardless - everything was mint and he was really happy with it. He's even happier now that it's in his car (too bad he lost his liscense till march tho haha)
Ouch lost licences suck. arent b20's illegal in cars in Cali??

If B20s were illegal in Cali, there'd be no CRVs in Cali, lol.
Heard nothing but good things about hmotors!

not true. The JDM B20s would be a different story of course.

it's illegal to swap an SUV motor into a non SUV chassis. so b20 into a crx = illegal.

Really? It works like that? I guess it makes sense, since SUVs have different regulations than cars (though they shouldn't).

That is odd. Crvs are based on the Civic chassis. I think the government should get a hobby. Any hobby. Just something to occupy their time so they're not making up stupid rules.

What makes it even dumber is the fact that a B20 is almost nothing more than a bored LS motor. What about the B20Z? Isn't that found in some Japanese sedan? If that's the case then the B20Z motor with US sensors and emissions equipment ought to be legal. Until you throw a hardcore snail on the hot side of it, that is...
