Default Finally, some decent pics of the sol....

new camera, nice day, pics of the sol on top of the Cary st. deck at VCU. Bring on the flames






yeah, yeah, the header is worth more than the motor

I'm kind of at a blank as far as other exterior mods go, trying to keep it subtle, any suggestions? wheels or anything else...

thanks, i used to have it slammed last summer, but got quickly tired of rubbing when i went over bumps. Rubbing stock 14s = just too low, so I raised the perched another inch or so, i like how it sits now

I like it. It is hard to find clean looking sols. I used to have those rims on my ej1. i would keep them if i were you they are pretty light. I say Keep the d and build it up some and then boost it.

I'm actually trying to keep it as stock as possible on the outside...so those wheels are light? I've never weighed them or anything. I was thinking about getting rota c8s, but am trying to save for this crazy idea of putting a b20/vtec in place of the d...a friendly shop in nova is itching to do that on a car

I agree, I just can't decide if I should get them now or wait until after I do the swap.

Rims. As far as the outside goes, that will change the car into perfect status. Don't mess with anything else (as far as the exterior is concerned). Keep it pure and simple.

As far as rims are concerned, go original. Don't buy rims that many people have. Standout. And if someone talks crap, laugh. Because, it is all about you doing what you want and like (even if that means not being original).

Also, the 2.0 liter swap sounds perfect. You would be astounded at how different that car will be with one in it.

Rims first though. Always, always, always, keep it pure and simple. No extraneous junk. That is what real honda hot rodders are about!!

Since you're looking for an EX/Si cluster and an exhaust system, I'm willing to bet that your car is pretty stock too. Don't hate because he's barely starting to modify his car.

Yes my car is stock...
