Default Sora: My '94 del Sol S

Hey guys. Been a member here for a few years now, but never really posted anything. Was mainy here to buy parts and lurk/get information. Decided why not make an intro thread. I've been active in ClubCivic, D-Series.org, and even TeamSolCal for a while now (6000+ posts on ClubCivic)...So I'm definitely not new to Honda's.

So, after having my EK sedan for over 5 years, I decided its time to move on. Onto something different and not so comon. So, I found this on a local forum, and fell in love with it. So, I went and picked it up. Everything checked out, and I trailered it home, 40 something miles. Southern driven car, garaged in the winters. Not a spot of rust on the frame.

'94 del Sol S
stock D15b7 with 218k on it, and it runs like its brand new!

Heres a short mod list when picked up:

Tokico Blue struts
Tein S tech springs
Blue billet aluminum rear lower control arms
14" American Racing Rims with Honda center caps
Mugen replica steering wheel
Type R replica shift boot
DA maplights

Here's the only picture I have of it that I took. Sorry its at night and from my cell phone. Once I get her all cleaned up, I'll take her out for a real shoot. So for now, here's a teaser.





2/28/10














I quickly got rid of the eBay steering wheel (death trap waiting to happen), and the yellow Aux lights (were useless being yellow like that), and the American Racing wheels that were bent. Everything was replaced for a stock unit.

Update Winter 2012

So, after a few minor altercations in my life (divorce, trying to finish college, unemployment, getting backed into and finding out that it had previous damage that was patched over, behind the drivers door...etc), I'm back with a few minor updates.

Mugen Lip....Test Fit:







Painted waiting to be installed:



Got my spare P06 ECU Chipped and tuned by my good buddy Jay Conasta over at SpiderRPM...


Installed my NGK AFX Wideband Controller and Sensor...(was on a cold start....)


Installed a new 4-2-1 Header...


An AEM Short Ram Intake with Dry-Flow filter...


And what would an intake and header be with an Exhaust...



Spring 2013 Update!
I Found A New Spot For My *** To Sit



Lip Mounted...New Air Holes



No Keys, Push To Start


LED Gauge Cluster


I'm currently gathering the few remaining parts for my B18b1 swap (need a tranny and axles). After that, I'm going to work on getting the body fixed up. New fenders, hood, trunk, and the typical Honda wheel-well cancer. After that, it'll be time for paint, then a Vtec head.

Current List of Mods:
z6 intake manifold
a6 cam
Unorthodox Racing Adj. Cam Gear
Chipped P06 tuned with Crome
eBay Header-Exhaust (Needed a cheap replacement at the time...)
AEM short ram intake (AEM Dry Flow filter)
Recaro SRD drivers seat
S2000 push button start
AutoMeter CF Series Gauges: Vac/Boost, Oil PSI, Oil Temp
Tein springs
Tokico Blues
Mugen style lip



Question, comments, and concerns are greatly appreciated, but not required.

Thanks. This time around I'm trying to do things right. My last car had a ton of cheap, shitty parts. **** kept breaking and since I was poor, I had to ***-rig them. This time, since I have a little cash flow, I can get better quality parts.
