Have you been to this crazy thread in the forums? It features engine conversions that a more conservative and possibly saner modifyer/tuner would never think of doing. Frankly though it baffles my own sensibilities. Like what happened to a low mounted engine in this RX7 FD like the car was originally made for? Although some others have just wowed me with the craziness like a Ferrari engine in the most unusual car.
There are many other conversions to be found that are beyond belief. The thread is entitled “Engine conversions good or bad” and can be found here.
What: Inaugural VWgolf Get Together. Where: The Entertainment Quarter. When: Wednesday 24th February. 7PM ’till late.
I know many JDMST’ers have a thing for Golfs. Our very own SUGA has an R32 Golf riddled with JDM Style and Tuning parts and another owner rocking up on the night will be Tendy who has a MKV GTI rolling on Advans. More info on the event here.
K20a.org The K Series Source . Honda / Acura K20a k24a Engine Forum. Definitely the forum to be on if you’re looking for information on the mighty Honda K20a engine.
ClubITR.com.au is a forum which represents a tight knit community of Australian Honda Integra Type-R owners, don’t let “tight knit” scare you though, they’re a great bunch of people! I’ve been to one of their awesome meets and I didn’t even come in a Type-R, but I was more than welcome. :)
ClubRoadster.net is a virtual car club for all Mazda Roadster Tuning enthusiasts (that’s the MX-5 to us). The site exists to share the fun of tuning Roadsters in the spirit of the Roadster-only Japanese quarterly magazine “Road&Ster.”
In the same brain as JDMST, whilst there are many forums out there dedicated to a single compact car (We’re talking jazz/echo/yaris/swift/copen/pologti/r-colt etc.), no website has put like minded people of different makes/models together and thus CompactCup.com was born. It’s new, it’s fresh so get on board and be a part of a new compact car movement now!
The all new UK based GTR Owners Club (GTROC) website is live and damn it’s looking great! I personally frequent their forums a lot and lurk in the Members Gallery section.
OK it was always inevitable. My stock Jazz wasn’t ever just going to stay stock for long, especially since I’ve since been hanging out at Fit Freak, a great forum/community of fit owners.
