Possibly picking up an EM1 today, and almost for sure a stripped 94 Civic coupe that's fairly clean just needs a few pieces of glass and an interior. The EM1 would be my new DD and the 94 would just be a new project (probably strip, re-paint and throw some interior in it).

cost of them?

Stupid question, but what's an EM1?

1996-2000 VTi

It's the Civic Si in Canada.

I've seen people around here running 300+ HP with the Sumitiomo HTR's on there car and hooking up, also the yokahama S drives alot of good luck on 300+ Hp eclipses i've seen driving around... there fairly priced tires

 

[awptickes]

Lots of people I autocross with like these tires, and many subaru guys like them as well. Some of the subby guys are making upper 400's.

225/50R16
245/40ZR17

cost of them?

It was $100 for the EJ, and $3800 for the EM1.

Both deals fell through though. Guy with the EJ sold it out from under me, and the EM1 had a salvaged title and needed a little more work than I was hoping for.

I've had decent luck with these tires so far, but I mean the traction is a problem, could be partly due to the transmission I'm using.

Hmm. I might have to pick up a set of those when I get new tires. The Azenis are nice, but not everything I had hoped for.

 

[Matts96HB]

Fial, they only make those Dunlops in a 195/55/R15. That's the only 15" size. Boo.

+1 I would be in for a NW meet. I don't keep up on local events much so I have no idea when would be a good time other than maybe in the spring?

 

[newb]

From like April to August theres a ton of shows. Just depends on where you wanna go.

Thats on the west side of the mountains tho. I dont venture over the hill too much for car related stuff.

 

[|Chaz|]

We're not going to one, we're going to have our own. I don't want to see a bunch of randoms. I just want to meet our local members.

 

[newb]

Lol, aight then, sounds good.

Damn man, taking forever lol

Maybe he didn't like it.

Yeah man we need to, I'm thinking Spring for sure

Early summer or spring works for me.. I just get really busy in the summer with work

Yeah keep it small and local for sure, maybe meet up and go hit some twisties and what not. I'll be bringing some of my friends a long for the ride for sure

 

[newb]

If we meet over here (Seattle area) and you stay for the weekend we could hit up some tracks. Pacific Raceways on Friday night, and Bremerton Raceway on Saturday. Both tracks are near sea level, and usually have very low ambient air temps lol.

Matt, would your friends be driving or riding along?

 

[awptickes]

most development dollars anymore are spent on 17" sizes unfortunately.

 

[Matts96HB]

Newb- there would be two cars, and probably a total of four of us.

Ticked- 17's look like garbage on civics IMHO.
