There's a bunch of other del Sols choppin' me up still lol, but it's still coming up from what it used to be. A little time and TLC and you can transform any pos into something nice :) I remember when it used to look like this... Just an crappy shell sitting in my driveway for 3 months.

Some new pics of the Sol! Haven't done anything much to it. Just keeping it clean and running. Thinking about repainting these BBS rims a different color. I'm getting tired of the purple now.

But I did manage to get the GSR tranny in today. I did it all alone :( Getting the old tranny down is a piece of cake. Getting the new one up is a PITA but after about 30 minutes of swearing, yelling, and cuts, I finally got it positioned correctly. I must say it feels much better than a LS...

I know what caused it to crack :( There's a huge tall speedbump at the gate to get into my storage. Since I work on my car there I have no choice but to drive over it. Over time the tranny just kept bamming on it until it eventually cracked.

Forgot to mention I cracked my LS tranny last friday -_- All I heard was CLUNK! I looked in the rear view mirror and saw a trail of tranny fluid. The Delly has been hard parkked since then, but today I picked up a GSR tranny from a good friend of mines. So tonight I'm going to swap it in if i...

Your pretty much limited when it comes to power and a automatic d16z6 -_- Upgrading from the stock header, intake, & exhaust is a good idea, but after a while you will want more power. Starting from the firewall this is what you need to swap from auto to manual. - Manual Brake & Clutch...

Don't cut and weld the shift linkage, you'll never get it to be perfect. You'll have trouble shifting into the gears.

Got some goodies today from a buddy of mine that recent sold his del Sol A EDM del Sol steering wheel. It has no airbag. A JDM Prelude steering wheel. It's minty clean! Just going to hold onto it and see what'll come of it. Also I installed my JDM door map lights. They're bright as...

Is 28.9 MPG pretty good gas mileage for a B20 w/ LS tranny? That's on the highway crusing inbetween 75-79 mph. I calculated it when I went out of town last week in the del Sol. All together I did about 926 miles.

Straight pipe > Resonator > Mufler

I got my exhaust fixed and welded up today. Sounds purtyy!

My exhaust piping is 2.25

Im not sure how many inches it is from stock height, but it's pretty damn low. While going over speed bumps the exhaust scrapes mainly around the resonator area. But I think that's only because my exhaust is a bolted up weird. I'm going to the exhaust shop soon to fix some piping and a leak so...

lol yes your correct :( When I get the whole car repainted I'll paint the engine bay too! As for the purple wheels I got them like that so just gonna ride on them as-is until I can get them redone.
