Hi everyone,

I would just like to introduce myself. Board name is TorontoG for lack of anything creative. I am looking forward to getting my G in the next couple of weeks as I have signed all the papers to trade in my 2001 Honda Civic.

Some Background: With my Civic I was involved in many shows, placing in most of them. With the G, my plan is to do clean subtle mods (suspension, wheels, etc), but who knows, it may turn into a show car.

I have lots of questions about the G, being as none of my friends have one and lots to learn (I do all the work on my cars, myself)

Couple of quick Q's:
- Are there regular meets/track days/events?
- Do the '06 projector headlights fit into the '03/'04s?

Thanks guys/girls,

Hope to meet you all soon

 

Welcome to the G team!!!! We have meetings but there arent really much track event. You can sign up the GTA list on the sticky in this forum

Have fun with the G!!!

 

Welcome TG, and congrats on the soon-to-arrive G. (Coupe or Sedan???)

Post up pics when she does arrive and show us your pride and joy.

We've got some show cars in our ranks, so you'll be right at home if you decide to go that route. Sounds like you've done well with the showings.Kudos

Until this year, we've mostly had just unscheduled p/lot meets, but I'm hoping to see a few races at various tracks this year and have more meets at various venues perhaps with more content.

We have some racers too, one of whom is Balzz (Shane) and he'll be glad to hear of another enthusiast/racer.
There's been some talk and interest in a meet at Mosport this year. We're hoping that's do-able.

Any input would be appreciated, so if you've got any suggestions, don't be shy.

We've tentatively set up a meet at Square One Mississauga on April 23rd. to kick things off this year and hoping for a decent turnout. (and weather. )
Only a meet and chat in the p/lot and possibly some eats afterwards.

Hope to meet up soon, and we hope your ride arrives as expected.
G/L
Colin

P.P.S. - Can't help with the headlights, but I'm sure someone here has that answer.

Colin, are you tracking the M??

 

Hey TorontoG,
Welcome aboard!
Yes, the '06 headlamp assemblies fit right into the 03-05 models, the change being that the previous models ran on D2R bulbs and the new assemblies require D2S bulbs. But assuming you were going to upgrade to 6,000K of 8,000K bulbs, you have the perfect opportunity to change them right there!
Looking forward to seeing your creation at the upcoming meets!
Cheers,
Al

 

I'm seriously thinking about it.....

I know the car is up to it......Whether I am remains to be seen..
Blackie, Shane, and RBull seem to think so...

I got the 2006 lights have not install it yet as I am waiting on some bulbs. Let you know what happens.

Colin you going to track the M? man whats the point that car is just way too comforatable. Unless you are going to mod it ooh i can see it now, tiens flex exhaust, sways, turbo charge? or super charge?

 

LOL, Eric, the modding started a month after I got it her last March ....remember the exhaust mod to true dual?
...and there's an intake in the works for sometime this spring.....

If I track it, it won't be every weekend tho......I'm thinking I'll go out once and try it... we'll see ; No promises..
C.

 

You only go around once..life that is. On the track hopefully more than once

 

Up until recently, I was headed in the opposite direction...I never thought I'd end up on a track somewere, so at least I'm entertaining the notion...

haha, It's easy to talk so bravely from this 'distance'......The closer it gets to race-day, the harder it'll be.
