Default Del Sol B18C1

I have a del sol with a gsr swap. I would highly recommend this swap. It is much faster than a hatch with a gsr. With a turbo it is extremely sick also.

Ohhh, so a 2000lb hatch is slower than a 2400lb Del sol with equal mods.

Thanks for the info

That's the part where you're wrong. Aside from being slower, it looks girly as well.

That is a nice look sol. I would not mind having one but I need the back seats. They are not girl cars. Girl cars are SUV's.

the del sol doesnt weight that much more than a hatch back.. and it weighs less than a coupe..
Weighs about 270lbs more than an EG hatch, that's quite a bit for a honda. And I hate to tell ya but my coupe with my swap still weighs less than a stock del sol. The swap probably adds 50-60 lbs at least.

yea stop hatin on del sols...i'd rather have a girly car that is looking at ur "hatckback" 3 or 4 car lengths behind me then tryin to look like a poser...the reason why i chose a del sol over a civic hb was because it's something new and different then seeing the usual honda being fixed up that u see all over...don't get me wrong tho..i still got love for hatchbacks or coupes but i just wanna see something different everyonce in a while..especially a del sol like that clean *** white one up above

civic hatchbacks are a good 200 pounds lighter than a del sol, they seat more, have more cargo room, and no guys will hit on you. however, there is something about del sols with a 99-00 civic front end conversion that look really bad ***. really, the only girly thing on a del sol is how the front looks.

hey.....winning 3 1st place trophies at ricer shows is not something to be bragging about.........all that means is that your just as much of a ricer as all those other idiots your monkeying around with.......ither way your del sol is not fast its quick.....as for looking like a girls car IMO it does especially when you take the roof off.........and for saying your car is faster then a hatch with a gsr i dont think so pal my friends 92 cx with a gsr would own you.......

it seems to me like we got another ricer at heart in are hands!!!

this thread is going to go nowhere fast. I think the intent of this post was to get everybody into an arguement, and it looks as if it did. Lets do ourselves a favor and not reply anymore to this post b/c there is nothing to gain if you do.

If you can't handle people saying your car is girly, sell it.
