NJ/NY! I am about to be in you!
...so I figured I'd say hello.
My boyfriend (also an Evo owner) and I are moving to NJ this summer. Both I and my car should be there mid-May, and my BF should be following in June.
I've owned 3 evos in 4 different states, and I'm excited to come to NJ since this is my first time on the East coast. BF will be attending NYU and I'll be working near Parsippany, NJ.
What's the scene like out there? I'm hoping we can make it to some kind of meet up once we have both cars there.
Looking forward to meeting you guys/gals!

Edit: Holy crap. I just realized we'll be close to Lime Rock! Super exciting.

It's something different, at least! We don't really have a scene to speak of out here. Until very recently the "club" was pretty disorganized and we still don't have regular meet ups.
I'd love to find a group that at least meets on a regular basis.

Hey, I grew up in Parsippany! I live a few towns over now. Anyway, there used to be a good DSM/evo scene a few years back, but once DSMs started to get old and they all fell apart, the meets happened less often. I haven't really been to any meets recently as I just moved back up here from south NJ, but I hear they have some meets at the Applebees in Parsippany once a week. My buddy told me they got pretty big last year. There is also a meet in Roxbury/Ledgewood area by the TGI Fridays. Otherwise there is usually a decent turnout at the evo/wrx events at Englishtown's Raceway Park. Or some of the local guys like to hit up Island Dragway in Hackettstown since it's a smaller drag strip and much cheaper.
Anyway, welcome to the dirty jersey where we are most notably known for our super high property taxes.

You're leaving Hawaii for here? What? I'd re-think that idea...I'm from Cali and can't wait to go back there! Theres a bunch of Evos here, some in great shape and some riced-out/abused. You'll be living in the Parisppany area? For next Winter, make sure you get 4 snow tires and watch out for our crater shaped, rim-busting pot holes! Oh, I forgot to mention the rust-breeding rock salt? Hawaii, versus New Jersey? hmmmmm....

Hahaha, that's right! I bet you guys over in HI don't even know what "salting the roads" is! If you're smart, you'll have another daily driver or beater car you can use in the winter months if you want to keep the evo clean. The winters are terrible for cars here between the salt on the roads and the craters, aka pot holes.

Only a town or so over (Oh hey parsippany Evo people! Sorry I only have a baby "evo"). As far as driving goes, if you like to get your car dirty, there are some really fun rally roads within a 45 minute drive, and lots of snow. I know a very good spot for snow driving/drifting, 10 minute drive from parsippany.
