im about 45min away from pittsburgh, a little place called uniontown i dont have the fit anymore now im rockin a TW 09 Si

 

argh y the west side of PA lol

 

I'm new to the forum...drooling over all things Fit. I want one so badly...I will have a 2010 Blackberry Pearl Sport w/Nav and VSA. I'm not terribly interested in doing anything to the engine...maybe a carbon fiber intake (any suggestions/websites I should check out?). I am seriously thinking about carbon fiber OEM wing/hatch/OEM hood, side skirts, and carbon fiber B-pillar. I've been looking at them on carbon-creations.com (do a google search). Any thoughts?? All in good time of course. I've been perusing the forums and went looking for the PA community...how do we join?? When I go to Social Groups...I don't see us...I have to look in archives. What gives?? I see Fits here in York (south central PA...30 min from Harrisburg, 45 min from B-more, 2hrs from Philly, 3-4 hrs from Pittsburgh I think) all the time. I'm excited to see some of us Fitfreaks around.

Daily driver 23,000 miles, fun car!

 

Not much traffic in this forum unfortunately, but if you read other forums here you'll see a lot of PA/NJ/NY/MD/VA region Fit folk. For some reason this particular thread just doesn't get the posts.

Welcome, enjoy your car (when you get it)!

 

Right now the problem lies in the two Hondas I own/buying right now. If you check out my profile...Elsie is just getting harder and harder to repair...although she is still going with few problems (a new carb= $$, I already tried having it cleaned). The money pit is the real problem. Lets just say that I would like to beat up the previous owner.... She has low miles for the year and type of car. Unfortunately I had no idea the amount of money it would have taken for her to run properly when I bought her. I over paid, GRR. I spent $3000 back in May (another Loan I had to take out) fixing up her engine, and I had to take it to Honda to do it. New engine wiring harness, new exhaust manifold and down pipe, new alternator (that was what put me over the edge and said f-it lets just fix it right and be done with it), new primary oxygen sensor. Then when I got it back some a**hole put scratches all down the passenger side of the car...the side without any previous scratches...GRRRR. Shortly after I bought the car...she let me sit two blocks away from work...needed a new alternator (no problem, did that ourselves). Back in May, I'm driving to lunch...and I smell something burning in my engine...gauges were fine. Take it to the shop...Alternator was burning up it's guts...that burning was the copper on the inside of the alternator...and of course I could get a new one...only to have it burn itself up again? No, that's when I said f-it. At the end of June I lost my job...last month some kids decided that I needed new drivers side windows and shot them both out with a BB gun. So I've pretty much had it with the money pit...one more thing and I'm afraid I might just lose it. Faulkner Honda had my Fit in stock a few weeks ago...and I thought I would just go in there and see if I could take her home with me...and lose the money pit. They only wanted to give me $3000 for her, that would only pay for 1/2 my loans. The Fit's monthly payment plus the other loan payment puts the whole thing outta range right now. I haven't given up though. I will have my Fit, just a matter of time. Sorry for the storybook.

Hey everybody! Would anyone like to reccomend an all season tire? My original Dunlops are getting kind of raggedy....

 

From the NE 'burbs of the Burgh comes the call,"What kind of tires should I get for my 08 Fit? The original Dunlops are gettin' a might raggedy!"

 

Hey there PA. I'm a huge fan of running winter tires in the winter, and summer tires in the summer. I can give you suggestions along that line. All seasons are something I wear out and never go back to again.

 

my wife and i just bought a 08 vbp sport 5spd... going to be spending most of its time around the pottstown, pa area...

just checking in...

 

Welcome. I pass Pottstown frequently via 422.

i hear so mani people around pottstown but i never go thru der =[ dammit lol no reason to go down der =\ cept for philly

 

in pottstown during the week

 

I rarely see GEs in my area (Lansdale) and the ones I do see are always orange. I do see a decent amount of GDs but I've never seen another Fit with any noticeable mods (besides my own). I like that my car's unique, at least in my area, though. If there's a meet out in Limerick/Royersford again this year, I think I'll be in attendance.

I've got springs and a throttle controller in the mail, and can't wait to get them installed. I think I'm going to get my stock sport wheels painted in the spring/early summer...can anyone recommend a good place in SE PA? I've read some good testimonials regarding Bonehead's, in Warrington, for powdercoating.

 

lower that bishh
