Del Sol - Tell me whats good about it... bias welcome

[destrukshn]

well i recently bought mine.
kinda neglected, but nothing a bit of elbow grease won't fix, and so far, i'm half content with the performance, it's as stock as it gets, timing is off, and absoultly shit cracked extractors.
but eh, i'm not complaining, overall, it's a pretty good car i reckon.

you guys are making me sad.. i want one so bad after having driven a few...
as much as i loved my sr20 and its torque... th sound of the high cam on a b series is awesome!

oh well.... insurance payout is now cashed in.... gonna shop around for a bit and wait a month i guess.

destrukshn: mind PMing me the ad for the car you got if you don't mind... just curious.

I'm tryna build a car value benchmark in a spreadsheet (believe it or not) based on condition/year/mods as i'll admit i am a honda noob.

yeah i know... i would have paid for the setup FLY is selling tonight had the crx i looked at last night been in good condition... damn i'm too keen.

still cut about my NX though.... posted all my parts for sale tonight at PGA

Just to share what happened (the wheels in the pic is what will go on a white/black crx i purchase):

My b16 does that anyway. Don't need a b18 to do that.

i would, but he took it off car sales already.
i'm also tempted to buy fly's setup.

b16, will get the sr20 rolling, but from the line, i reckon it'd be side by side.
but then again, all depends on the driver.
lol.

i know this thread has dragged on but just wanted to let you guys know i found one and will be picking it up on tuesday/wednesday next week when i make full final cash payment

- Feb 1993 build date (i'm guessing this is one of the first)
- White. Some parts of the body need fixing but no biggie.
- EVERYTHING WORKS!!! all windows and all electronics and aircon.
- 220 psi cylinder compression on all 4 cyls. (checked myself today with tester)
- Fully log booked since new and has ~140K Km.

and the price i paid (paying).... $10k cash. That leaves me plenty of money left over from my original budget to make this the way i want...

***EDIT***
i'm also looking for a B18c block ASAP. so as to make conversion easier to blue slip prior to any other mods!!

[aimre]

Hope all goes well with it

[dsp26]
