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

New car in the works.

New car in the works.

Post by benjamin » July 11, 2005

well guys, me and my brother are coming to a crossroads, I am prepairing to go to college and soon tuning the sti will not be an option, instead, I will have to purchase a car of my own....
my grandfathers graduation present for me was a trust fund I get when I graduate college, assuming i have enough money to get a house ect,

I am interested in seeing what you guys think I should get, im personally thinking about getting a evo8 and converting the front and rear bumpers, and tails to evo 7 parts....

I am thinking about it, I am kind of torn... I have drivin a sti for a while now and I honestly prefer the driving of an evo.... an sti is rarer, but im not sure... if I was going to purchase a subaru, I would probobly go with a bugeye wrx, and convert as much of it as I can to the subaru wrx sti "s202" a special edition japanese sti...

its just that this is so hot:

You should buy my car and drop a GtiR sr20det in it. There are guys making 500whp on stock internals.

not in yellow, but i like that conversion, in every car verse car comparison short of one japanese magazine with the sti spec-c against the stock evo, the evolution has beat it in every single type of contest except 1/4th mile. also, the car is much more fun to drive then a subaru... if you have ever driven both in a close time span (i.e. one affter the other) I think you will agree that the evo is a much more fun car to drive.
