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

I wanted the gold Brembos, but got the Wilwood's for $800ish plus some rear pads/rotors through Touge Factory. I'm talking with Enjuku now to get something and finish this thing up.

only 3 or 4 PAIRS(8 total wheels). i've burned through 2 pairs at a drift day during only two sessions and i still needed to drive almost 2 hours to get home. plus, you can never have too many rims especially if they're cheap. the only reason i can get what i am is because i'm selling off old wrx rims and all of my 4-lugs for the 240. i may eventually get 18's just for street if i come across A LOT of money, but i doubt it, lol.

it's funny that you say that because i've got about seven pairs(wait that can't be right can it?) of 4-lug wheels that i need to sell. that's not counting my old wrx 17x7.5's i just sold.
