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

argh!!@# :(

another distributor has PERISHED! i had 3 runs tonight; 2 against a b20 delsol and 1 against a b16 da integra. after the final run, i noticed a strange, yet familiar, sound coming from under my hood...grinding. i pull over, pop the hood, and lay my hand atop the distributor cap. yup! the bearings are gone, YET AGAIN. some of you may recall that this same thing happened my very 1st time at auto-x. anywho, just thought i'd vent somewhere...and post the vid of me smoking that b20 delsol. :eek:

lol, it looks like you weren't even in a race. After the "start" or whatever it was, you were already 4 car lengths ahead before the other car even started moving :-p

That sucks. It seems like everyone has that one part that haunts them. Mine is my exhaust and the bolts holding it together.

well, i bought a distributor from a guy in sacramento today, so i should be getting it within 1-2 days. $110 down the drain! i mean i'm swapping again soon, but the CRX is my daily driver so i can't have any downtime...
