My SolMint_Sauce 09-12-2002, 06:38 AM Hi, Just joined and it's my first post. Might as well put what I have here. http://mintsauce.servebeer.com/My_Car/DSC00012web.JPG Stuff i've done.... 1.AEM induction kit with bypass valve. 2.Infinity speakers with diamond audio sub between seats. 3.Kaminari Bodykit. 4.Wolfrace 17" wheels. 5.Other stuff I can't think of right now :) When I finally get some more cash I want to do some more engine upgrades what do you all think? Full exhaust is probably the right way to go, then more internal stuff to the engine.....? Oh yeah, it's also the 1.6 16V DOHC VTEC (170bhp standard), Is that the B16a? s2Ksol 09-12-2002, 03:17 PM The pic didn't work for me, but your sol sounds cool. What year and model do you have and where are you from? Can't go wrong with upgrading exhaust and internal parts. Just choose parts of quality. The US spec 94/95 VTEC model has a b16a3 with 160hp/111lbs of torque. The 96/97 VTEC model has a b16a2 with 160hp/111lbs of torque. The JDM b16 has 170hp.

Mint_Sauce 09-12-2002, 08:30 PM Hi, s2Ksol - The pic only works when im not playing games as it takes all my bandwidth! :D It's a 93 JDM auto transtop with the (i think) b16? I'm from the UK, just outside of London near the countryside so I can blast about with the roof off :) PreludeToGreatness - Thanks man! :smoker2: Mint_Sauce 09-12-2002, 08:37 PM Also, is there anywhere in here where I can view all your Sols? :licker: GTA 09-12-2002, 08:52 PM looks good. I'd recommend a lil bit of lowering though. get rid of the wheel gap Mint_Sauce 09-12-2002, 09:17 PM Lowering is a definate, it's the very next thing i'll be doing I forgot about that... At the moment it looks good close up but from far away the gap spoils it. What shocks/Springs? I've been told Eibach springs with um.... damn, forgot the make of the shocks... :mad: s2Ksol 09-13-2002, 01:30 AM If you look at the block of the engine then it should be stamped with the engine code. If it says b16a then you have it. Not sure what the redline is on the jap spec, but here in the US the redline is 8250 for the VTEC model. Yours might be 9000. Here are some shots. http://www.theshowzone.com/images/enginems104.JPG http://anotherlevelcc.homestead.com/files/blair3.jpg http://anotherlevelcc.homestead.com/files/blair2.jpg Blair 95 VTEC www.teamsolil.com Mint_Sauce 09-13-2002, 06:20 AM Ooooh, I like your Sol, very nice! Lots of engine work I see and all that purple looks dead smart! What kit is it? Oh yeah, my redline is 8250. I thought it was only the S2000 that redlined at 9K? I'll check my engine at some point to see what it says. s2Ksol 09-13-2002, 02:36 PM Thanks man. The kit is from Austria. It's called Pakfeifer. I had it imported into the states. Very thick hand layed fiberglass with a glecoat. No fitting problems. Yeah, the s2000 had a 9000 redline, but I wasn't sure what a jap spec b16a redlines at. Wasn't sure if it was different then US spec.

I had Intrax springs with Koni adjustables on my Delsol. They worked great. When I went autocrossing I set the shocks up so that I had just the tiniest bit of oversteer to help the ass end come around the cones. Its an amazing feeling when your car actually turns around a very tight corner instead of slinding around and/or through the corner.

Hybridsol gives it two thumbs up :alien: Chipras3 07-21-2003, 04:00 AM Hey S2ksol, That is one beautiful body. How much did the whole thing cost ya? Plastic_Fork 06-30-2004, 01:39 PM Mint_Sauce: I'll have to wait for your picture to work to form an opinion, but from your description sounds very nice. :) Here's a couple shots of my car: http://bellsouthpwp.net/j/0/j00/delsol/car4.jpg http://bellsouthpwp.net/j/0/j00/delsol/engineshot2004_4-07-04.jpg S2ksol: Love the engine work. Your other two pics don't seem to be working though, but I'm really liking what I see so far. Love the purple color. :D vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
