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

Future plans

Suspension is NEX coilover system. Imma sell my AGX's once I get that set-up. Rear anti swaybar probably from Suspension Tech. A rear strut bar with welded flex points would be included on the setup as well. A front strut bar will be brought back also since I just recently sold my neuspeed strut bar to a fellow member. Energy suspension master set is also on the list. New axels maybe? Also new inner tie rods.

Engine is to build it with the help of friends, I wanna make my car last longer than I expected it to be. New seals and all the works. More power and better engine performance. A4 manifold and overbored H23 TB and intake manifold will be on the list also. Poly mounts included.


Rims / Brakes / Tires

For the rims Imma go for Mugen M7's because they are my most favorite. Every time I see myfriend's car , makes me more eager to get them. Probably some 16 inch g-square rims. haha if I ever find one. GAB's? maybe so since I like them too. I'm also eying for some Racing hart C2's

So far I'm choosing between
- Mugen M7
- G-Square
- GAB Sports
- Racing Hart C2
- Sprint Hart CPR
- Sprint Hart Tuner
- Super Advans

Brakes will be Brembo all around meaning Imma have to do a rear disc conversion too. SS lines and new power brake booster and master cylinder. New brake calipers and all hardware.

Tires? Ehh , falken ziex are good enough or Yokohama S Drive.

Paint is the last thing going in. I will go pure black.

Price overall? Prolly $5000+

Homework and research under progress.

Distributor has a seal leak.. Oil went in and burned out the ignitor..

I was driving on the freeway then RPM drops to zero like turning the car off.. Ignitor is the culprit..

Anyway it's time for Darkshadow707 to retire. To many crap are showing up everyday and I'm tired of dumping money into repairs. I need a less headache car with luxury for the time being.

So here they are. Final shots of Darkshadow707 before I start to put it back to stock and sell it.
