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

OT: What setup does he plan to run on your NA?

Invite him to miataturbo.net, but warn him to lurk a bit before posting, read the rules and the stickies.

Thanks man!
Got myself a full Z32 (300zx) front and rear brake assembly. Sooo much bigger than stock! My front brakes right now are: 9.8" rotor, single piston caliper. These are 11" rotor, four piston calipers. My rear brakes are 10.2" rotor, single piston caliper, these are 11.6" rotor, with a separate drum e brake and dual piston caliper.

Thanks guys.
I was banned from Zilvia because the mods thought me and my room mate were the same person with two usernames (same IP..)

So unfortunately I won't be on there anymore haha, shits ridiculous.
