I apologize for not wanting to go throught the 30 pages you guys have here..just got a quick question.
I'm going to be installing a jdm rear fog lamp on a del sol. How do I get the light to stay after I plasma cut my hole (in the garnish)? Are there brackets I can buy? Any help would be great.
Nice sol's by the way...cant wait to get mine!

isn't there mounting screws on the back of the light itself? i remember ray ray had them when i was doing his for him. you have to drill the holes for the mounting points and screws.

 

.... leave it to san diego to have a front end conversion like this...

Good old san diego. Interesting fact about San Diego, yall know it was founded by the Germans and roughly translated means a whales vagina? Just a little something I learned (I really hope someone catches on to that )

What bulb/harness are you using for your rear fog? I dont have anything...Just the lens itself.

Anchorman ftw

and im using the bulb that came w/ it. (thanks rick!) i still need to wire it up though..

 

Ok, this makes 3 in a row (yes I am being a ***** right now) but I have some questions haha.

What do yall think are the best full coilovers to get for the buck? Tein, D2, F&F, Omni, etc.?

I have to order something tomorrow so they will get here buy thurs/fri. So I need everyones opinion asap haha.

Its my DD, but it will see some track use once I get my motor done. (Both drag and road)


I can get the function and form ones with pillowmounts for like $650.00 Seems to be a really good deal. Everything else is a good bit more and without the pillow mounts.

i just called and they dont have any..</TD></TR></TABLE>

oh man

 

I bought NAPA's drilled slotted rotors for the front and daily drove them for a couple months, also took them through a couple autocrosses. They never cracked, but, then again i barely had them broken in.

EDIT: I am seriously running out of pics for ownage, and the ones i do have i dont know if i have posted them before or not, so sorry if my pics are getting old, il take new ones soon.

 

DWAAAMMMMNNNN...some sick looking del sol's there

now THIS is a can of worms.

Powerslot recommends one way, Baer recommends the other..... there is no right way to put them on

jimmy: were you using new pads and new blank rotors? were they bedded correctly? there are too many factors to say exactly how or why something stops better

it depends on the inside vanes. your right in every rotor is made different. if the inside vanes are straight then it doesn't matter which side they go. if the inside vanes are curved.... then they are directional.
