Is that how they roll in Romania? Zip-tie their shocks to the LCAs. :D Remind me never to buy anything from a Romanian... Heck, after looking at those springs I took out, maybe I already did.

ebpda9 05-30-2007 06:23 AM

nah, we use zipties to lower the car

Racing Rice 05-30-2007 08:08 AM

Ah, nice! :D

Okay so here's what I've got so far.

- New Distributor is installed.
- Skunk2 Pro Coilovers should be here today.
- Blox lower control arms are on order.
- Front and rear Camber kit is on order.
- I'm picking up the new bumper cover Saturday.
- Clear corner housings have been ordered.

The Sol is slowly coming together.

Erm.. How small do they look? It's a basic honda shock, probably about foot and a half/two foot long or so. Atleast they look more straight then my stock suspension did.

I have a few sets of spanner wrenches for coilovers laying around my house. :D

Oh...I think you know why.:D

Maybe it's just because they I'm used to dealing with parts for a bigger car. It figures that a small car would need small parts.

IALuder 05-31-2007 09:19 PM

stick a sock in it steve.hahaha

You've been playing butt pirate with the little Romanian kid? Aren't there laws against that?:hmmm:

GT40FIED 06-01-2007 07:25 AM

What on earth would that have to do with YOUR thought process? Haha.

And I think it's only illegal in Texas. :flick:

I thought the only thing in Texas was steers and queers. I guess they have to protect the Gay Minority somehow. :D

GT40FIED 06-01-2007 12:30 PM

Actually Texas laws were put to the test a year or so ago. Apparently police somehow arrested two gay guys living together and charged them with sodomy. They took it to the TX supreme court and got the law struck down. Now man-on-man action is legal in the lone star state (apparently).

A side note Jeremy...you might consider moving to Texas.:D :flick:

Racing Rice 06-04-2007 10:23 AM

My LCAs came in this morning! The Del Sol will have suspension by the end of the night. Yay! :D

Racing Rice 06-04-2007 08:11 PM

Suspension is installed!

- Skunk2 Pro S Coilovers
- Blox lower control arms
- Mad Racing Concepts Front/Rear Camber kits








IALuder 06-04-2007 10:05 PM

so how low did you drop the car?

Racing Rice 06-05-2007 07:01 AM

Not sure yet. :D I didn't put the wheels back on and set it on the ground yet. I have other things I need to get done before I do that. I'll post some pics once I get to that point.

Racing Rice 07-20-2007 08:20 AM

Repair has begun.. We got the trunk lid holes from the wing welded in and smoothed over, got the new rear bumper beam support installed last night, started rust repair around the rear fender wells, and still trying to get that damn clear coat crap off of it! I really can't wait until this thing is done. lol

Updated pics will be coming soon.

IALuder 07-20-2007 09:25 PM

IALuder 07-23-2007 05:33 PM

well, it would make a good xmas gift. hahahahaha

nah ill box it tonight.

Racing Rice 07-24-2007 07:33 AM

This is the color of the paint I bought for the Del Sol. I love it. I thought it was going to be more flat, but I will probably like this better..


IALuder 07-24-2007 01:38 PM

looks alright get better pics

also can i ship it to that address without the po box and have get it you?

Racing Rice 07-24-2007 01:41 PM

If you are sending USPS it has to go to the PO Box, UPS/Fedex/etc just the address is fine. I just include all the info depending on how you are sending it.

It was dark last night, so the pics aren't that great. I'll get better ones later.

IALuder 07-24-2007 01:42 PM

dont matter to me.

MissJDM 07-31-2007 01:17 AM
