Re: The rebirth of 1994 DelSol
You are doing a superb job !
I am very impressed by the quality of your interior job, and also the fact that you are doing a GT car, that will be comfortable and with noise insulation.
I am surprised that you did not put NEW ball bearings for wheel hub. I know Honda makes strong and reliable parts, but with all the new bushings, brakes, driveline ... New ball bearings for wheel will also insure silent rolling and improve fuel economy.
my example : on my Honda CRZ we did BC Racing suspensions, and I changed the REAR bearings to install H&R spacers with new longer studs : THE FUEL ECONOMY IMPROVED ! with just exchanging the rear.
my car has only 4 years and 100 000 km.

I have been out of the Honda build game for about 7 years and have not logged in here since Nov. of 2011. I just spent 15 minutes resetting my password and logging in just to subscribe to this thread and give credit were credit is due. Having owned buku Hondas and a sic *** del sol, I have to say this is completely legit bro. You should be proud of your work here and show it off as much as possible. This is Not your average Busch league build. Very well done sir.
Subscribed...wtf. I don't even do this anymore.

Same here, I never am here anymore, but the email caught my eye. Nice work man, I wish I had the patients to work on my own car anymore, but after doing it all day at work, it is the last thing I want to do. How long has this project taken so far?

WOW, awesome build!
Your handwork skills are first class. The work you have done allover the car is awesome, but the interior is just phenomenal!
Congratulations and keep up the good work!

This is a really great build! I can't wait to see it finished! The attention to detail is amazing! I'm kind of playing around with detailing and mechanics with just a little fabrication when needed. Seeing this makes me want to really get into it.
Good luck and don't give it up!

Absolutely amazing build - Thank you for sharing and all your efforts.
None of this is easy...
I'm looking forward to the final product.

Okay. I haven't been on this in a long time, and I saw this in the News Letter! It is freaking awesome right now! If you don't mind me asking, how much has this or will this cost you?
Also, nice work on the body and the interior, where did you learn to do all that?
