123CiViC

when was the last meet u tried to do,i dont remmber seeing it in the west forum....i remembered setting 1 up last yr, but only like 4-5 people showed up

fitting's not perfect.. when i first installed it, it didnt fully close it also needed plenty of shim where the hinge was. i've made do with it though, and right now, it looks like the fitment is pretty good

i'd definitely be up for a meet whenever. i'd just have to know what day it'd be on to see if i have to work or if i'd be out to sea..

Probably more activity then whats happening in OR which is absolutely nothing for the past haha 2 yrs for 7th gens in this state I would say HAHA..

Yep the civic just keeps getting more miles on it and keep eyeballing other cars I would rather have but thats the way things go... About the same as when you get the GF haha you look at other models that are nice but aren't getting a piece of HAHA Because you are stuck to one you like but could use some variety

i'm in federal way, i've tried to set one up on a different site with all types of cars, but didn't happen. we could meet up at a neutral location, maybe Axiom, and maybe go to hooters or something, do a little photoshoot at some point.

there's actually a pretty good spot i think to do a photoshoot by my place, it looks like an abandoned log cabin or something...i'll take a picture on my phone and show y'all if we ever do a meet.

I think that Seattle keeps me from being extremely bored out here. So, i'm in the market for some rims now. Any idea's? I'm thinking maybe some 17" SSR's.

ajaesi

iTrader: (1)

^^^ sounds good, no bigger than 17's though

i've actually never been to seattle, and i've been here since december =/

01.4dr.Ex

you should try and make it out there. good times to be had. man i really need to do an auto-->manual swap. i can't stand the tranny

01.4dr.Ex

Ok, so i've hit a dilema. I have the money for some new rims. But I have my eibach pro kit springs sitting here. I'm wondering whether or not just to buy the shocks and some sway bars and just get better tires for the stock rims. What do you guys think?

ajaesi

iTrader: (1)

what type of stock rims? i love my stock rims, i've never seen them on another car i just wish they were an inch bigger.

i would definitely upgrade suspension first, stickier tires would be good too

01.4dr.Ex

They're the 15" steelies that have the hubcaps on em. I think i'm going to upgrade the suspension first also. Pick up the rims when summer is in full swing.

i ran with springs (tein s-techs) and shocks (tockico blues) for a while.. i liked it. i'd say get some shocks to go with the eibachs..

after a while, i said screw it and went with some tein ss-p coilovers.. lovin those right now.

rims are always nice, but not exactly a necessity. you can always get some badass tires for stock steelies. however, if you do get rims, i'd recommend getting some that are light as hell. i'm running with buddy club p1 racing sf's (17x7) and they're so much lighter than stock steelies. not only will rims look better, but getting lightweight ones will do some for performance as well (very little, but every little thing helps, right?)


isnt federal way in bremerton..?

01.4dr.Ex

I am going to get the tokico's off ebay. I also ordered a progress 22mm rear sway bar which will be here next week sometime. Looking into some tires for the steelies.

123CiViC

i have 17" RH c2 evos and now im switching to 15-16" prolly slipstream or circuit 8s....by the way im trying to sell the rims, only problem is that there in cali.

01.4dr.Ex

So I've got my sway bar and shocks on the way. I went w/ the tokico hp's. They should be here sometime this week so i'm looking to put them on next weekend. Can't wait. Now i'm shopping around for some tires for the steelies. just to get me by for a couple more months till I get the rims.

whoa, there are people who still mod Civics in WA? I still got my black coupe. I'm too poor to buy anything else.

xRiCeBoYx

iTrader: (22)

i'm in WA, but that's just because the navy sent me here..

i started modding in vegas..

ajaesi

iTrader: (1)

yeah, i'm only here because the army sent me here we need to set up a meet!

I dunno if Federal Way is in bremerton or not, i know it's exit 142 off of i-5, right by Auburn. it's pretty nice over there. a nice lil drive from ft lewis, but isn't that why we're on this site, because we like to drive?

I could host another bbq at my shop in Auburn.
