yeh drive by wire will be yanked and also use the RBC 06 si manifold for the best gains. I've been trying to read up on it and do my homework.

Except for the first quarter, that was a lame S-bowl, and not just because the bears lost, i had a feeling they would anyway.

You will all be happy to know i'm ditching math and doing catch-up here
Oh well, i dont understand any of it anyway, im not a math guy.
amen. so many that arent around and not the tech/build info like it used to be. now just bickering.
spring needs to hurry up so we can get back on our projects and post new pics and updates.
AMEN! Its warm today finally, but it will be cold again on Thursday
You have no idea how badly i want to work on, and go cruisin in my sol.
Wanna get hiiiiiiigh?
<------- wishing i could make it to Eibach, but il have to stick to just VI this year. Now if it would just warm up on the weekends (it snows every weekend) so i could go home and start making improvements to my sol to get it ready.
siiickk
When i had no wing, i wanted a oem wing, now i have one, and i dunno.... looks like mugen comes through again
uhhhhh
im sorry man
g/l on a quick recovery!
I still need to get me some jdm 1pc'ers *cough, cough*
but i didnt realize you have to get new bulbs..... where can you get h4h's and what brand.... is silverstar ok?
SO this is great, i woke up to the sound of hail (marble sized) and the sol isnt garaged
My worst nightmare
The lip looks OK
sorry i dont have anything else positive to say though.
1 busted engine, 1 tranny, a front end collision and I'm no where near even thinking about selling.
Thats the spirit!
Dane Cook is the MAN!!!!!
I wonder if that would leave some kind of residue, or stain on the dash. I always wanted to do something similar, but I never wanted to drill or tarnish the dash.
Good man. Darksol drilled into mine over in the L corner
It kinda screws up my otherwise miny interior, but its not really that noticeable; definitely not worth doing a dash swap for.


Wray: i think i have finally figured out what i want as far as Ksports, you think i should just paypal voiceofid asap?
P.S. does anyone know the OEM del Sol VTEC spring rates?

Theres apparently already a stroker kit that increases K24 displacement to 2.7 liters. Thinner sleeves and overbored pistons could get displacement up a little more, perhaps not 3.0 square, but close enough. It sounds like it could work...

My knowledge of K's is very very limited especially concerning the internals. I'd just be happy with a regular old K20-R.

BTW, Someday i plan to live in your desert paradise; id much rather deal with heat than cold, which is why i dont go home, and work on my Sol in the freezing wet cold.

As for the desert paradise, well I would rather be living in Phoenix right now due to the higher rates of theft. They have a lot better organization when it comes to traffic management and the roads are a bit better. Not to mention half of my friends are up there. However, their college basketball team blows and there is a lot of culture here in Tucson so I'll be here for a little while longer
