It's been a while boys (and girls) updated pics of the sol...
 
Added

Fluidyne Radiator
Fiber Images trunk
R33 style front bumper smoothed (remove square holes between headlights)
JDM rear filler panels
Rota circuit 8s
NEX Coilovers (full coilovers, not just sleeves)
fully poly bushings

I'm getting ready to go take on some supras and RX's at the autocross track since that is where I'll be classified with the Mods. 272 HP now at the wheels from a D16Z6 turbo. Let's see how I handle with the big dogs. It will also be running hoosier race slicks at all four corners at the autocross...

here's the pics..

















It normally gleams, but I didn't have time to clean it up before taking pics.

delsolvtec 08-27-2003 10:47 PM

Wanna race? ;)

Grip72 08-28-2003 06:40 PM

nice man...i think ya need new tails cuz they sorta stick out...and maybe shave that trunk keyhole...but i'm NO ONE to judge..i drive a stock as hell accord..being poor sucks....anyone feel me>?

delsolvtec 08-28-2003 10:01 PM

I don't want to shave the trunk lock, I have a remote popper, but if that goes I'm screwed.

As for the tail lights, I had altezzas on it and opted for the stockers. I want a clean looking car without anything too drastic, no altezzas, no clears etc.. I'm probably going to smoke them eventually.

Altezza's suck!

When did you get rid of the lip?

ebpda9 09-01-2003 06:16 PM

i like it man.

pdiggitydogg 09-01-2003 08:08 PM

if ive never said it before...youre a pimp

delsolvtec 09-02-2003 10:48 PM

Thanks guys, I got rid of the lip about two weeks ago. Car was getting tuned on a dyno and one of the techs broke the lip when pulling the car into the shop. They paid for the new front end and paint so I switched it up. I can't wait to redo the interior, it's getting all black alcantera suede including recovered 2003 Civic SI seats.

Why Si seats
why not S2K seats or Sparco Torino's

delsolvtec 09-03-2003 10:40 AM

I got a great deal on the SI seats. I think they look pretty sweet too..



The reason I'm switching is because the blue interior that went with the car when it was samba green just looks funny now that the car is a dark bronze color.

KwikR6 09-03-2003 10:42 AM

True that.
Plus all black interior looks killer

Love the car, very slick, very nice. You did a hella good job on everything man. Good luck racing those others, show them the del sol power that you have and all the rest of us are wishing for. Hahahaha.

I took second place in the CRX/Del Sol class at Import Implosion this weekend at McCormick place. The show was actually bigger than I expected.

KwikR6 09-08-2003 12:57 PM

CivicSR 09-08-2003 01:19 PM

Kewl...I kan't wait to see what they look like
Not to mention how they feel in a sol.

delsolvtec 09-10-2003 10:14 AM

Just got a new digi cam that can take 3 minute video clips with sound, so watch soon for video clips of the sol in action. Hopefully I can find a large parking lot or something around here to get a wicked smoke show going along with some acceleration runs.

The last thing I need is to get stopped with a video of me breaking the law in my car.. Man the police around here hate me enough as is. My car is loud, hisses when spooling and the blowoff valve shakes windows. Cops are not my friend. I'll try though, maybe have someone else drive the camera home after.

Nice Car man!

Blake, You can get Red and White Tailights to look better.

ty13 09-20-2003 09:50 AM

get some shots of you running at the track ....street racing is gay...only pompas as#h*les with little or no respect for humman life run on the streets....Or most likely they just dont have the balls or the hp to run a real strip...

cashizslick 09-20-2003 10:17 AM

Hey, the car looks sick - good luck at the autocross, and please dont change your tail lights.

delsolvtec 09-20-2003 11:36 AM

No autocross for me for a few weeks. Take a look at my "sol is dead" thread. Snapped a rod and it shot through the back of my block. I have a new D16Z6 on the way and it's going to get even stronger rods, new pistons etc.. it's getting worked/bored/stroked etc.. Look for about 300hp from a single cam vtec in a few weeks..

Actually I have the balls to run at the strip and the horsepower. We don't race on public roads, we race in an industrial park with the owner's permission. They even bring out a starting tree to make it more like the real thing. It's on the ride home that everyone gets messed with by the Cops..
