gsxr07 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 Hey gang,Excited to have my new 93' Honda Del Sol i purchased from OR member madcat6183 (A+ seller!)For fun and everything I just wanted to post some mods and things that im doing to the car and hope to get some friendly pointers and learn a few things from more experienced board members, if im lucky make a few new friends!! Well on the first day I picked up a SWEET deal on a set of 16" enkei wheels for $125, that are a bolt pattern for the del sol. Hope to have some pictures of them mounted in the morning. Lots of plans for the car, i'll keep updates!Enkei Wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcat6183 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 Sounds like a good deal both ways man. Once the weather breaks I'll be hitting you up for the truck detail we worked into the agreed upon price. I usually get an interior and exterior done in under 3 hours, so shouldn't be too bad. Not to mention I detail it 4 times a year, so guess next year I'll only have to do 3! Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gsxr07 Posted February 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 Doing body work before I touch anything on the engine considering its in excellent condition. Actually the guy who sold me the wheels rebuilds honda engines and was telling me that a non VTEC is better for a turbo build which would be my general direction.... unless anyone knows about a chevy 350 swap.....

Cheech Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 With all that horsepower going into it, you're going to need a pretty large wing in the back to provide the necessary downforce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 you sure wouldn't rather have a Gallo 12 or Gallo 24 in there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
