Default check out the sound of my



delly. i still think the z.speed prototype exhaust is one of the best and unique sounding system! what do yall think?

this was Rhys Millen piloting my car during 2001... at the BFG G-force challenge. not sure if I ever shared it with yall. two small mpg's. you can hear the sound pierce through the air even when the car is at distance, and when it rolls by the front straight (as i was filming), i couldn't help but think, dang my car sounds good. hahah.

actually, no... that was the production version. i have the only prototype. it's mildsteel (altho it's holding up impressively), and ultra light weight. it's hard to see but it's got a very small rear muffler can and a tiny 60 mm tip.

It's like an Autocross on a race track.
It's so short.

Oh, car sounds good.

Anything with the yellow car?

i'm getting a multi cam setup for my car soon! then i can shot all the action including driver's footwork too. i wish i have video of remix from past few events. it has passed lots of decently (intermediate) driven monster porsche's. the video will make you guys laugh.

remix has the distinctive record of passing f360 challenge car. :-) if i only had the video. a challenge car driver giving little civic a point by. heheh.

but no worry, i'll have plenty of fun in car vids soon.

at least 35k miles and tons of track driving. they're holding up great. kyb should pay me considering how frequently i recommend them. they are really good bang for the buck.

btw guys i'm getting into parts manufacturing. i will be testing some inverted coilover setups soon. the well marketed JDM suspension has nothing on the stuff i'm developing.

at the moment my delsol runs on the skunk/invidia/RSR that came out around 2001. this setup sounds not bad. very deep. but personally i prefer my old z.speed, as it is distintive. i've never heard any other exhaust for honda sounding like it. you have to hear it in person. it makes me giggle all the times. i'm going to put it back soon. i also like its ultra sleeper look.

here's how the skunk2 sounds. a rolling start, and also a 5th gear DC downshift to 3rd...

I think N/A Honda's sound like p00p.

But either way, that's a sick *** car man... Good Job with it.
