I'm surprised I guessed that. Though that is usually how the younger sol owners have to sell out

Well been meaning/waiting to post this for a while now

The fun I had before Honda Day installing all these parts at once

bling bling?

Full-Race + ASR + Skunk2 = Win



first the rear cause i've been wanting this stuff FOREVER, ever since I first cut/modified my rear bumper...like an empty canvas now painted LOL

For Barry



I even sprayed the rear under trunk section and wheel wells with rubberized undercoating for protection and to keep it looking nice and all black

I also relocated the rear fog a bit and raised it up higher so it wouldn't be blocking the view

might as well while everything was off anyways...

to the front:



pro-am additional engine bar/mount



motor doesn't move at ALL now while before it had a bit of on the dyno...

these played a big part if not responsible for cutting my 60' time down to a 1.7' from a 1.8' and giving me 2 tenths in the 1/4....worth the money IMO

only reason I upgraded traction bars since my Competitions were fine (they are actually beefier), but someone said they buy them and I took them off, ordered new ones and everything thinking I'd pay the difference but the kid flaked

I at least still sold him my lenso wheels though so I made some money...

was definitely a fun day installing all those parts, but still managed to finish before 6 so I could roll it on the dyno for a tune

although getting the old stock oem LCAs were a huge PITA and took most of my time...but it was worth it in the end...

put brand new oem bolts in the rear so I couldn't have trouble with them ever again

that was getting old stuff off, but getting new stuff on was like cake/butter

last thing I did that day was install a new buddy club short shifter box:





should've put my other **** on it to keep the theme going




Love this pic I took from HondaDay:



with the weld racing skinnies in the back:



oh and one more pic from HondaDay of my Honda Homie Hanging LOL:



and last but not least

the final component to my big suspension/set up upgrade update:

brand new D2s





I absolutely love these things, how they ride, how they feel, and the stance of the car now with them on:



(you can still see the dirt/rubber from the burnouts I did last time in NJ...too lazy to clean after race/before pics )





surprised how nice they ride at this height compared to before with my old suspension (which I already had sold and cash in had even before I bought new stuff )

Now I try and hit bumps just so I "can't" feel them rather than swerve to avoid them or cringe when I hit one and my car sounds likes its about to fall apart...

another worthwhile investment don't know how i went so long w/o upgrading suspension

I'm having so much fun now just playing with dampening and trying to get a feel/gauge for the difference it makes

I think I want to modify some EDFCs that my buddy has to work with them


so maybe now I might start taking my car to some auto-x events this fall and spring to try them out and venture into other types of racing...just for fun though and not crazy about competing (just like I am now)

at least it will keep me busy after and before drag racing starts up again (still a few events left in the season I might still be able to make before next year)
