Re: 95 sol ground up project!
Man, the way this car was sitting looked exactly like my Civic before finally getting around to building it. :p
I've always wanted a del sol.

Re: 95 sol ground up project!
Thanks! They should look a lot better once its actually sitting on the ground. Purple was definately not my first choice in color for this car to go with the blue but it just seemed to kinda happen so I figured id run with it! Love these rims though, plus there different My floor pans for my 57 chevy are supposed to be here today also so I will be starting on that just as soon as i get an engine swap done in a cavalier.......

Re: 95 sol ground up project!
I have two Del Sols i need to fix up. The only problems are i dont have a garage or very much knowledge on what im doing. But ive always loved the Del Sol. You ever think you might sell you black one? I would really to buy it from you, that would give you more cash to put into your blue one. What do you think?

Re: 95 sol ground up project!
wow just stumbled across this thread searching for a supercharged H22. Great it's being done in a delsol. Fantastic work!
Out of interest did you ever do more research into running the supercharger, with no aftercooler etc, on that high compression? I'm running 11.5 mahles with my H2B and thought about adding a JRSC too, but predetonation is my only worry
Keep the updates coming!

Re: 95 sol ground up project!
Thanks! I actually just got my engine back this past weekend, and am putting it together now. I am going to run e85 to help out with detonation, with the compression there at so Im hoping a good tune will keep it safe. There a quite a few b series with over 11:1 that run them also.
