it shares suspension, brakes (except ebrake cables), and the engine bay with an eg civic.

Pretty much anything that bolts to a z6 in one chasis will work on another chasis. The only thing that might throw you would be the mounting of accessories and maybe AC and radiator.

As long as its a 93-95 sol, yes. If I was looking for a sol now, it would be a 95 si. That year is still OBD-I, has the low gas light, trunk popper, rear discs, and stock rear anti-roll bar. Just need to find a busted 96-97 for the black trim pieces and front bumper

or you could just buy stuff for a Del Sol... most of the crossover stuff are the same, but they do sell stuff for the Del Sol.

suspension is interchangable with 92-95 civic and 94-01 integra(except type-R). whenever you go to a parts store and request a part just ask for any 94-97 del sol VTEC model.

P.S. for mikey quoting me
