Default some pics of my 93 del sol s build

well i got my car on 3/3/07 and this what it was looking like day one-

17" konig's, wings west front bumper, stock head lights, clear turnsignal lights, clear tails, short ram intake, full exhaust, b15b7 motor stock



trunk didnt shut all the way and couldnt open!


sold the rims, sold the trunk (without the hinges) sold the tail lights,and sold the front bumper all in the frirt two weeks.

got kyb gr2's for $30 for the front pair, neuspeed race springs for $50 for gsr (2" drop in the front and 1.75" in the back only dif between the gsr's and the set for the del sol is the del sol set drops you another quarter of an inch. )


here it is as of right now with the springs, oem front bumper, and 13" steelies


for performance- i picked up a short block b16 for $50 and at the same time a h23 long block with bent valves for $100 . im getting the b16 checked for tolerances, and honed and i got a b16 head with new seals, and a jg edlebrock manifold for $350









the pistons-




heres as my turbo stuff i have as of now-

t3t4 57 trim-


27x6x2.5" intercooler with pipes-


fitment-


pte 680 injectors-


tial 35 mm wastegate-


this is what i have right now i have hondata s200 w/boost this week and i need to get some pistons, and a trans! other than that im doing good i think. thanks for your time

You know what Henry Ford said - "any color, so long as it's black."

Glad to see you dumped that aftermarket nose for OEM.

BTW, if you don't mind me asking, where'd you get those shocks? I just snapped a couple ^&*@#($&*( Tein seat locks and they're taking their sweet-*** time getting back to me with the part# to order. For those kind of prices I could swap the Teins off and give them all month to procrastinate a reply back to me...
