EDMONTON MEET!

Where and when guys....lets get some facts down...[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

We should probably make this a light clearing meet since we put it off last time, eh?

I might want to do my lights as well. I need to get some new struts installed on my car. So, after they come in(supposed to be this week) and get them installed, I can put all my parts(rims & strutbar) back on my car. They didn't void my warranty but I didn't want some mechanic scratching up my rims. Also, I didn't want to be charged labour for taking off my strutbar.

Skunk2, but it looks as if I'm going to have to wait a month on the header and the coilovers. Stupid gf's brother, milked her of all her cash and now I had to buy her groceries and pay her rent this month. Damn, I'm broke again and it only took a day

Yes even if we don't get he headlights done then we can still go for some Pho....but there is only one place that I will go...and it's buy this like desert house....it's a really small place....in chinatown.....Also...Blown are you gonna get your coilovers and install them yourself??? Cuz if you know how...and I heard it is really easy if you got a buddie with some car "know how" then you can pull it off....and why are you going with skunk2...I think I heard they were crap.....I want to go with some GC's but I have heard that they can really cause problems like poping out of there brackets or something bad like that........but they have been said to be the best so far.....

If I can't get my kit....(I got my aunt to come with me and bust some ***...we are gonna make an appointment with the manager and complain about the bad and lazy service of the dealers....at Millwoods).....then...I am going to get some GC's and then some WHITE MR7's......If Millwoods gives me that crap story that they can't order in the Sedan kit for me...I will flip....then....I will say that Alberta can get if for me...but they are being...biotches...cuz they can only get me the grey and black one...and refuse to order me in a white one....Which I know they can get.......Ohhh...also...they said that they wouldn't paint the kit for me....so...they I would be stuck with a black or grey painted kit...and have to fork out another $400 to get it painted....what a crock....

Well this week I work tuesday...wednesday....and sunday....
and I got like no cash for anything...soooo I am up for some Pho cuz its cheap *** food....but sooo yummy....[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

AsianPride, I don't know what kind of coilovers to get yet. Eibach springs offer the best stock like ride quality but with a little increase in perfomance. The skunk2 are stiffer springs which give you more perfomance and decrease ride quality. I say my rims decreased it the most so far! As for price wise, skunk2 are cheaper by a $100-$150. Installing them would be a blast, how many people can say they installed springs and survived? Might have to find a spring compressor(my uncle is a mechanic, easy enough!). When I plan to lower my car, I want to do it right and buy performance struts at the same time. That way, I can save on labour and not have to ever worry about replacing the stock struts again!

Well, it looks as if I'm going to be getting some more money(commision is wicked!). Time to order the header!!!!! Damn, and I bought kumo bushings and the revo technia shifter already. Damn it, oh wait, sweet! Man, I am spoiling my car, it's a brat now! But it does haul a$$.

I am free on saturday night this week only. Too busy laying sod again. I moved 99,000lbs last weekend and have 72,000lbs to do this coming weekend and then the weekend after that I am gone to a wedding. So, it has to be during the week or this saturday.

Well I don't know what to do man...I have heard that springs are like way better than coilovers..but hell man...I have a feeling that we need to raise our car back up during the winter...so we should buy some Ground Control's cuz well they are the best coilovers for our cars....and we can put our cars back to the right height in winter.....Well I want to do this like asap...cuz I will buy these things..really soon...sooo I don't know what to do about install cuz well it's to crazy....anyways...Tornactive is selling them for like $512 CDN which is sweet I guess...but man they are sooo pricy..but you pay for what you get....well guys...a meet would be good...but I want to know who knows how to install these things.....BTW I heard that lowering your car no matter what...decreases ride quality and handling...but I just love the look...

Asianpride, Matrix quoted me like $650 for GC coilovers, so, thats a great price!!! I ordered my Revo Technia SS from Tornactive this week. It costed me $10 for shipping by 3 day air! Man, it's going to be a busy weekend for me. Anyone want to meet later next week? I can do it. As for the coilovers, I do have a magazine article about installing GC on a 2001 civic.

I think he got a great deal on his rims and coilovers at Matrix motorsports. I think like $2600 installed for both!

yeah, it was at matrix, it was $2600 w/o installation though..

i took it in on friday, but they said that my stock shocks were leaking like crazy, and that its somewhat of a problem with honda (you guys heard that before?), soooo, they ordered new shocks for me, and it won't cost anything (warranty), but it'll be a few more days before i get my **** done though

hey mrwong, there's no point of meeting at BP's, the police always break it up at 10:30 and not one of our civics could come close to those domestics . and the imports that are there are probably all turbo charged at least most were when i last went.

Chames, Derrick told me it was $2600 with installation. That was the deal for me, too bad he's gone now.


MrWong, I guess we should set up our own crew. I would love to crash a domestic muscle car show, you know the kind I'm talking about in a mall parking lot. Just kinda pull up and park, then pop my hood. It would be great!
