Alright, well, I've had the del sol parked for quite some time now and am ready to get back into it a little bit. I need to replace the shocks and springs since the car has 310,xxx miles on it. I also noticed I had a broken sway bar link...lol. However, I was looking at adjustable camber links...

Alright, I seen some used ones on Ebay. So I might get them and a new set of O-rings just to be safe. I'll make sure to relay that info on to my friend who was telling me to go with bigger injectors. Thanks guys

I have recently discovered that my injectors were leaking gasoline onto the intake of my engine. I have been browsing for some new ones, but all I am seeming to find are around 390cc and larger. I read that the stock size is 240cc. I have been told that I can use a bigger injector at the price...

Well guys, the build is off for now. :( The guy that sold me the engine had supposedly shipped it twice, but i never got it and eventually just asked for my money back. BUT, I've gotten myself a new toy to mess with in the mean time so I can tear down the Del Sol this summer :) Oh, and I did...

as far as i know the z6's were all vtec, but im not 100%, just going on what i have heard

Those links were very helpful. as soon as the cold breaks i will try and take it apart and clean those valves. We got snowed in lol. but as soon as my new engine comes in i will just clean up that throttle body assembly and just swap them out :) hopefully it will be here in the next few days.

i know this will sound stupid but what is an EACV and an FITV?

i figured i would. i have a cylinder hone and my dad says he can take care of it. but i figure i will take it to a machine shop and have the deck shaved and the head as well. for a better fit. but i have another issue with my del sol. it is now surging ONLY when i take off from a dead stop in...

lol...i know it isnt related to the engine, but today i went to put on some new brake pads on my car, and my rear calipers were, and had been seized up i guess. not sure how long. but i had to spend $150 on new rear calipers that i have to go pick up tomorrow. so that should be fun. an hopefully...

well....it was not specified in the auction, but i am going to have the deck shaved just enough to get a good seal on the head. as well as the crank but i am going to try to leave it stock bore since i already got the new pistons and rings for it. if i have to i will replace the rods as well. i...

alright, i will keep an eye out for a low A/R turbo then? if the numbers are lower should i use smaller intercooler piping as well to keep up pressure? and on a lighter note....i caught a good deal on a d16z6 on ebay, i got it for $325 shipped :) im just waiting for it to arrive now. it was...

many thanks on the links. im reading them right now. the honest reason i want to build the motor is that there are a lot of hills on the roads where i live and i am tired of it just crapping out when going up them. so that is why i just want to build it up to about 200HP or so. nothin real major

well that works. ill just splice it into the exhaust. i found a turbo on ebay, here is the link to it: eBay Motors: T3 AR42 TURBO CHARGER+ oil drain oil return line kit (item 300171471781 end time Nov-22-07 14:43:59 PST) i know that earlier in this thread Blanco said to look into something that...

i done some reading and it helped a lot. there is just one thing i havent yet figured out. the dump tube. i know it comes off the wastegate, but do i splice it into the exhaust? or do i run it down toward the ground a let it flow out on its own? i have heard both ways and am not sure on it.

no i havent came across it yet
