Met the dude the day after I posted as for the meets; I can't speak for anyone else but I only got mine in January

More than happy about the idea of a meet in May though.

So... I'm not too familiar with the West side of the city; but is the Ottawa River parkway under the same rules as the Rockcliffe parkway? In other words which kind of cops patrol the ORP?

Umm...well there's a 12A in ottawa in the for sale section, hopefully that one pans out so I can just slap that in for the summer. I still have the bridge port motor that I never put together from years ago. I guess that project will start again. But I'd like to drive it in the meantime. I guess my motor didn't like sitting for 2 years. I was just cruising along, downshifted and bewm.

Anyone in Ottawa know a good place where I can do some 3rd gear pulls to redline? I need a quiet place so I can do some AFR tuning on my PFC.

Also, if anyone wants to join me you are more than welcome!

How much is the insurance on a JDM FD? I heard insurance companies take you to the cleaners when they hear RHD.

Cheers

If the insurance company will insure the RHD car, then its no more expensive than LHD. They have no little button on their underwriting software that says "LHD or RHD" so they dont bother adjusting.

The problem IS that only something like 65% of insurance companies will insure them.
