Yep, nice ride Faze, I bought a grill like yours about a month ago, happy to see how it looks.

Guess I won't make it to this meet on sunday, even though I'm anxious to meet you guys I'll join you when I get my car, hopefully on the 9th.

Well I'm in!

I added you to my msn.

I have Brian on my msn as well.

Not to worry about that.. I'm sure the way its looking we'll have more meets - others with ample notice so perhaps some out-of-towners join in

The more the merrier And I added you as well, perhaps we'll chat one time - instead of whoring up the thread (was funny to see BeLowMe's reaction to the explosion in planning the meet more concrete.)

Sounds good...and yes im still in winter mode. Hopefully the weather will be good to us this weekend Although the thing is, Im not too sure if there really is a Tim Hortons there. I just know that there's a Mcdonalds, La Cage aux Sports, Kelseys, and the theatre...but thats all that I can think of.

Thanks! I paid 250$ with the tire (that don't fit 7th gen...). The wheels are almost new, they came from a 2000 Civic GPF1 edition. The guy used them one summer and then change for bigger wheels. They were waiting in a garage since then. I am happy since it's not a model that we see often on the road.

There is .. Those things you named are just a little farther down (like block at best) I talked with my aunt who lives in the area so I trust her. Its just a little past the intersection of Begin and Cote Vertu. Begin is the first light on Cote Vertu coming from the 40. (If heading in from Cavendish, its the light just before getting onto the 40 (after Spheretech/Place Vertu ...) There is a Shell gas station diagonally across the intersection from it. The Tim's is in the corner of the Rona/Future Shop/Chez Cora mall


Very nice rims RedViking especially for the price If I was going for an OEM look I'd definitely grab those (or the 04/05 EX rims toss-up). Though what size are the tires? Don't fit because they are just too wide or basically because its a different size than stock which will throw your speedo off?

14 with a good tire and one with smaller aspect = more acceleration

That's the plan for the future, but right now I am stock with the marvelous Dunlop SP20 185/70r14! (no money to invest for now). There is not a lot of choice good tire in 14", I was thinking of Falken ziex 512 195/65r14... any other idea? However, I may change for 15" next year, since the tire selection is better...

On the pic of the wheels there is some 175/65r14 Starfire Flat-liner IV tires (?%??). Too small for a 7th gen...

I guess once you completely finish your dunlops you can buy performance tires and mount them on your mags and mount winter tires on your steelies.
Your stock tires are good tires. I know the Falken Azenis are good don't know about the Ziex. Anyhow for everyday driving I think your tires are the best. I wouldn't change the rims I think your rims are nice, did you get a chance to weigh them before you put them on?

I don't about 175s I have 185s for the winter. Wider is better for handling as long as the rim can handle it. Its natural more tire patch to cover the road.

I have been on this site for a while now, but never stumbled here....Let me know how the meet went, and soon we will get outta winter mode and have our cars back to normal!

Nice you see you posting steve_civic03, its all good - didn't really give lots of notice anyways to you . Btw, was I right about my question in the pm? As for this thread, it was only started late December - in hopes to try and get the MTL gang together.. guess I'm jealous of other places like Ottawa and London

The meet was good - it was nice for the first meet ever here. Nice putting faces with names and cars. Easily meet up again, perhaps will converge on a mr.com meet like was mentioned - Napi or Julep or wherever Hopefully with some more notice therefore others can come Though the meet easily convinced me that the cosmo bulbs really killed off light output, and makes me want fogs now BeLowMe took some photos and he will be posting them up eventually, hopefully our winter modes don't look that crappy on film
