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

not feelin the J series at all. you can get just as much if not more with a K series and still have all the room you need to boost the crap out of it.

I don't like the Jseries because it looks like hell sticking out of the hood. Build a bumped hood to cover it up. Shaker style would be sick.

Ive seen plenty that dont pass the hood. Like a properly aligned K in a CRX, all you have to do is cut out the webbing in some areas to clear. I've seen plenty of the J32s with the 6sp, CAI and exhaust run 12s... I think they have a ton more 1320 potential than the K. But I do love the K dont get me wrong.

when the car rolls out i want it to roll out on some new wheels so i have been trying to decide between these 2... i will be hanging onto the advans but i want to do a 'tuck & poke' look as well with the car. something i can switch back and forth from...

having trouble deciding on a tuck & poke wheel:
plan on doing a matte black center with a gloss black lip...

classics: Image lm20: Image plans:
Front Wheels: 16×8.5 (3.5″ lip)
Rear Wheels: 16×8.5 (3.5″ lip)
Front Tires: 205/40R16 Falken RT615
Rear Tires: 205/40R16 Falken RT615
Front Camber Settings: -5.0
Rear Camber Settings: -5.0
Suspension: Pic Performance Select
Approx Drop: 3.25″

shooting for: Image Image the lip fo sho makes it stellar.

leaning real heavy towards the classics.
