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 have eibach sportlines and Koni reds. I wish I had adjustables, but I love my setup. Rides smooth...no bounces. Can't even tell my car is lowered when you're driving it.
