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

question: why is everybody in the states always talking about getting the Tein Basic, or Super Street?

I have the Flex on my car and still I'm afraid I chose a coilover that's too soft... I'm actually thinking about having to upgrade the springrates once I go B-series (or K-series, whatever I want by the time I get there ;) )

I'm gonna get the omni power's pretty soon, and I'm not gonna get the street settings....I want the stiffer ones...muhaha

because remember, you cant have sex if it isnt stiff enough, and you want your car to be sex right?

I think I will go with the D2, and I think I can choose the springrates from 3k all the way to 21K

you can choose spring rates thru any coilover mfg, i am still recommending progress auto, d2 is cheap shit man, omnis have had breakage issues (granted under extreme conditions but still)....either way, its your car but i recommend progress auto
