JDM SOL - Vic - 1993 Del Sol - PICS

**JDMSOL** · 01-12-2008 07:00 PM

Hi Guys,

Just thought I would drop a quick intro. I have just recently bought a Del Sol with the automatic roof.

It is for my wife, but I am an old Honda fan from way back. I had a 1999 model VTi R Civic Coupe in 2000 and loved it. That was when I met my wife, and she liked it also. Now that she is looking for something a little more interesting, I saw this thing and had to snap it up for her.

I would like to do some mods, and I have already started since picking the car up on Saturday.

I ordered a K&N Filter and a CAI Kit with the pipe going into the drivers front fender.
I am getting the windows tinted this Thursday.

I would like to get some S2K seats for it.
A larger Throttle body.
Skunk2 IM.
18" rims
and becuase it is for the wife, maybe some king springs instead of Coilovers.

So far from what I have seen on this forum everyone seems really friendly and open to help. I tip my hat to you and hope that I can help anyone on here with the limited Honda knowledge I have.

Nick

I am open to suggestions on mods also people, so if you know anyone who has done these mods or more, please let me know where to read more!

Some recent pics with the HKS Earthing kit and the CAI system in.
I will take some pics with the widow tint and the clear side indicators once the car is clean!

Another shot of the outside of the car.

welcome dude

u could also check out www.crxaustralia.com.au

general mods u should do are intake, headers and exhaust...then u can do larger throttle body and intake manifold then maybe a vafc or even a hondata ecu

nice car, i would reccomend whiteline springs over kings bro~ better quality. skunk 2 is good also but dont know if they make it for that model.

g'day and welcome. s2k seats are nice. got them in my teggy but there is one thing to consider. the rails!!! as they are s2k rails you will have to drill holes and custom fit them. i just did a diy job on them and they are sweeet!
i would say you might as well get a 4-2-1 header along with a b pipe and exhast. that itself will put out some extra KW's. when getting a aftermarket header make sure you do some research. toda is the best but then again might be too extreme. K&N is alright but i would prefear ARC intakes they are way better but then again depends on what the owners aim is in the end result.
king springs should do alright with the car. their spring rate is fairly ok.

my understanding was the s2k seats bolt straight in, using the delsol rails

maybe i was wrong? coz i was gona put some in mine

but agreed with what everyone is saying with the mods... intake, headers, and exhaust, did it on mine.. it was sweet

welcome man.. love the sol

errrrrr im not really sure about the de sol rails bro. all i know is it didnt work on mine and i had to use the s2k rails. i know a couple of mates who had the same issue with a civic EG and CRX.
