sweet another del sol. i thought i would be the only one with one. yeah have u noticed the trunk leaks to

[tmart24]

yeah it kinda sucks...but i have nothing back there so its alright. the targa one sucks the most though.

[gotrice93]

yeah. mine does really leak alot. but they are fun cars

[Milanored92hatch]

u gettin rid of the body kit?

[gotrice93]

it should only be the front bumper. the rest looks like its stock bumpers

[tmart24]

yeah it used to have a full kit. im just waiting to find a stock front one so i can switch it...that and some side skirts.

[gotrice93]

yeah. you will love the del sol. i love mine and always will only sucky part is sometimes the fact that its a 2 seater

[tmart24]

yeah but then its a good thing too ha

[gotrice93]

yeah i liked the fact that friends couldnt jump in with me when i would be going to lunch with a girl or something in high school

[tmart24]

exactly. plus its just less weight.

[gotrice93]

yeah they are a pretty light car only 2277 lbs stock. thats for the d15 with a manual

[tmart24]

yeah thats what mine is...just when i bought it the sol had a single zc swap.

[gotrice93]

yeah. i wish i had the money right now to do a b18 swap but for a non vtec 1.5 it actually gets up and goes pretty good. have u had a chance to check out my ride thread

[tmart24]

yeah i saw yours. i like the color. and yeah they do get up and go. how are those 17s? i want to go smaller with some hx's or 15in motegi's. mine rub on that damn bumper.

[gotrice93]

my 17's are good. i like them alot the only time they rub a little is when i have it dropped alot bbut when its not completely tucked they dont rub. i have thought about going with a 16

[polar bear Grant]

go with some motegi, i have some track lights on my hatch and i love them, i compared them to my friends vx's and mine weighed just as much or maybe lighter

[justin]

hey i recognize you from the meet saturday. ha. you were even at sharris. i had no idea you were on the forum...

anyways welcome.

[gotrice93]

Alot of people ask why i run 17's, they say a 15 and 16 usually weigh less. which is true. i run 17's becuz i like the look. ive had thoughts of running 18's but the tire would be to small for where i live

yeah. i see what youre getting at

[tmart24]

update: starting to paint it white...lost the 17in rims...thats about it for now.

[Mitchness]

Glad you lost the 17s. The del Sol shouldn't go bigger than 16s and really should hang around 15" IMO.

The stock white for the del Sol is teh sex!

I personally think my 17's looked damn sexy on my car.. no way i would go any bigger. The 17's IMO were perfect

[Brian]

anything with a D-Series shouldn't go any higher than 15's unless they are lightweight, then 16's would be ok.

[gotrice93]

17's on a d series is fine :P

[Brian]

they look good, but they are heavy and the D doesn't have allot of torque

[gotrice93]

anything with a D in it should be all show because they have no go PERIOD.

[Bmer89]

That's why God invented TURBOS! :lawl: A boosted D series will "go" juuuust fine.

[tmart24]

yeah my sohc zc has like no low end power.

[Brian]

yeah my sohc zc has like no power.

fixed.

I keed, I keed....kinda

[SW-21turbo]

yeah. you will love the del sol. i love mine and always will only sucky part is sometimes the fact that its a 2 seater

who needs passengers any ways( i also am a 2 seater)

[tmart24]

fixed.

I keed, I keed....kinda


haha pretty much.

[tmart24]

i want a new engine....like really bad...i want to get a tsx k24...i have seen them fairly cheap...$1300ish...problem is i just need the money haha

[Brian]

i had a 94 Civic EX and I will never go back to a SOHC engine again.

DOHC VTEC or nothing

[tmart24]

yeah i have driven an h22 lude and my friends 06 si...wayyyy better

[Brian]

my H22 Integra is the fastest Honda I have ever owned, and it's not even in top running order yet

[tmart24]

yeah i bet...my friend is going to putting a h22 in his del sol soon...seems like the way to go but i want a 6spd so im going Kseries.

[gotrice93]

H22 in the del Sol is going to be a tough mod. It might fit easily but the weight is going to be a problem. he would be better doing a b18

[Bmer89]

^^^ He's right. The least weight hanging off the front wheels the better. Solution? Mid-engine it! :D Yes it has been done before, I've browsed through two mid-engine del Sol build threads.

[gotrice93]

i posted a thread on here were the guy did a rear engine del sol and he put a boosted h22 in it. he did a lot of fabrication

[tmart24]

yeah haha that would be sick

[Mitchness]

The sickest del Sol e.v.a.r!
