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

Yeah that estimate is about right. Too bad it still doesn't run, sooner or later they will figure out what is holding it back. If ya want to see some build pics here is a link to some. http://www.4uscag.com/skylinebuild.htm There are pics from other builds on there as well.

Im not a fan of the entire car...just WAY too much. Like a 30 pt. roll cage? YOU KNOW that car MIGHT see the track like once. And the rear tires look ridiculous. Theres a point where large tires actually hinder your handling capability. And a 13.5" wide tire is entirely unnecessary for that car.

But the profile shot in the mag is sexy...oh so sexy

This car will see the track more than people think. Once they get it running, neil said he will be using it quite a bit, but that might take a while. As far as the wheels, they are his show wheels, you honestly think he doesn't have another set of wheels for the track. He would be insane to drive on those at the track for about a million reasons, let alone they would cost about 12g's to replace the entire set.

true on the wheel part.

I still don't think it will see track time more than 2-3 times a year
