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

My shits in boxes: the story of my car not being built.

So my head is done, all deburred, valves in, springs/retainers in, oil galleys drilled/tapped/cleaned/plugged, exhaust mani studs put in...just gotta throw rockers and lifters in and set shim height when I have the motor assembled.

Harness is done as well, with sweet connectors.

Sold a KA flywheel I had, so hopefully I'll grab some R33 e-brake cables to put my rear Z32 brakes on. And get a set of steering rack bushings to put on before the motor goes back in.

Rebuilt my rear Z32 brakes a few days ago, so they are ready to roll out.

And hopefully after next week my bottom end may begin to be built.
S14.. Currently motorless.

Bought defi link gauges.
Got a bunch of aluminum to weld up intercooler piping.
Got a bunch of sweet torco shit like assembly lube, penetrating lube, grease, etc.
Waiting for my friend to get back from Daytona and hopefully his team didnt wreck or blow up their cars so we can start assembling my shit next week.

Probably going to pick up enthalpy romtuned ecu tonight or sometime this week.

...And I just checked online, they had to retire their M6 6 hours into the race due to drivetrain problems. Hopefully they fix that shit so we can build my motor.
