I'm just wondering what the next mod everyone is planning on doing with spring here and summer coming soon after....or is everyone waitin to see the new FnF ha?

pdiggitydogg 04-30-2003 09:41 PM

new wheels and tires are next...then maybe a vis oem style hood...then thats officially it until the c1

nonovurbizniz 04-30-2003 09:56 PM

rear disks have to go on... I got them last year and have prepped them all up nice and got cross-drilled rotors for them... now I just got to make sure everything lines up and do it.

Im gonna Paint my Cam cover with that dupli-color "anodized blue", some Headers, change my springs, and What do ya'll think of installing some neons inside my Z3 fenders so that the "gills" glow?


msvtec14 05-01-2003 10:02 AM

I'm waiting on my new tires. I want to do adjustable coilovers -vs- performance springs. My car is too low and I need more flexibility with it.

SolPol 05-01-2003 10:15 AM

I'm getting a paint job at the end of May. Then some suspension work.

PDog,

You check out the Invader style VIS hoods?

pdiggitydogg 05-01-2003 11:06 AM

yeah I did...but I think they look stupid...the oem looks cleaner

SolPol 05-01-2003 11:53 AM

I have the Invader. It doesn't look bad. I look at it sometimes and try to imagine my car with the OEM CF. I dunno, I know I would like it, but the Sol looks pretty nice with the Invader on there.

msvtec14 05-01-2003 12:03 PM

I like VIS in terms of their quality. My kit is by them.

SolPol 05-01-2003 12:07 PM

Definitely good stuff.

PDog, what don't you like about Invaders? The non functional scoop?

Racing Rice 05-01-2003 12:52 PM

A new vehicle...:o

?:confused: ?

mt.biker 05-01-2003 01:52 PM

for this summer....

plan on dropping another car in my parking lot.

pdiggitydogg 05-01-2003 02:14 PM

sorry solpol...it takes me awhile to get to these sometimes...

Yeah I just dont like the scoop...I mean there wasnt one there to begin with when the car is stock...so I just dont feel the need for it. People have told me that the invader style would look good on the civic...but I just dont feel it. Why dont you pop us a pic of your invader?? I'd like to see it

SolPol 05-01-2003 02:18 PM

Got 'em at home, I'll bring to work tomorrow and upload then.

zm_dawg 05-01-2003 04:55 PM

the invader hood looks good here and there....on the del sol i think i'd like it....i even liked one w/ z3 fenders i think...to me del sols seem like they should be more aggressive then totally clean cut JDM look.....

And i'm not quite sure about the glowing gills of the z3 fender...but whatever makes you happy...and able to enjoy your work on the car.....

c'mon there's gotta be more besides painting and suspension

Quevv 05-01-2003 06:50 PM

tires and rims...

ShEaNy 05-01-2003 07:06 PM

konis yellows....camber kit....Mr7's with 40 series tires....

ebpda9 05-01-2003 09:43 PM

sell the car and get another one. mine tends tyo break way to easy now:mad:

JamieS697 05-01-2003 09:49 PM

my damn racing seats are supposed to be in but after that im adding an in-dash tv/ with ps2 just for fun and then maybe consider a new engine but that is a lot of money

SolPol 05-02-2003 11:30 AM

PDog,

Here's some pics.

Don't mind the purple, it'll be gone soon :yes: :yes: :yes:

What I like best about the Invader is that if you look at it, it's half a Honda symbol.










zm_dawg 05-02-2003 04:39 PM

what exactly is that purple piece.....

SolPol 05-04-2003 01:57 PM

If you look, it's on the sides too.

The guy I bought the car from had bought it for his daughter. He fixed it all up and gave it a paint job. It's on the top too. Was on the hood, trunk and roof. Got new pieces for those. He painted it that way for his daughter, but when she was about to get her license, the mother decided the car was too small and wanted her to drive something else.

So, the car had been completely over hauled and I got a good price on it. Bought it in November, I should have it painted back all black at the end of May. I am putting all the original pieces back on for the paint job so I will get before pics for everyone (it's hideous, you see the sides?)

Should come out a nice shiny black. The guy is using a single stage so it's real shiny, then sanding that and putting on 2 or 3 coats of clear :)

Looks good SolPol, you need a drop! I hope you plan on painting over the CF hood as well as the body. That would look really nice.

As far as my mod plans, here goes:
New car (g35)
14lb Jun Flywheel (maybe)
20% Window Tint
Clear Corners
Red Grounding Kit
MB Quart 6.5" Speakers
MB Quart 1" Tweeters
Some kind of amp
Crawford Zedders
Crawford High-Flow Cats
High-Flow Intake Plenum
Y-Pipe and straight pipe, possible some flowmaster 40-series mufflers (no, these wont make it sound like a z28)
um... hopefully I will still have money after this...
I will buy the ATI Procharger a few months after it comes out (so Im not the guinea pig)...
:yes: :yes:

SolPol 05-05-2003 11:31 AM

Drop is next, after the paint job. No, no painting of CF hood. It's a black car. Looks good just CF.

pdiggitydogg 05-05-2003 12:09 PM

looks good sol...it will look even better w/o the purple streaks

SolPol 05-05-2003 12:30 PM

Thanks man, yes it will. I can't wait. Under a month now.
