Newnan meets

[firby911]

ahh it feels so good to be back in the Honda family. picked my del sol up today and so far loving it. gotta find someone with a spanner wrench for coilovers to raise the front end up a little though and gotta get rid of the wheels that are on it. im sure someone will trade me their rotas or drags for a set of works.

What kind of works, out of curiosity?

[Bacon]

Work RS Beta painted gold. They don't look bad but not my style.

\

similar to these. PM your number and I can send you a pic of the wheels on the car.

EDIT: here is the actual car with the wheels on it.

[firby911]

Ahhh,im looking to trade my si's and i was just wondering but those arent really my cup of tea either lol

[Bacon]

i get tired of Sis anyway. buddy of mine has a set on his hatch for now until his fat 5s get polished.

I have one spanner wrench you can borrow. That is if I can find since Firby gave it back to me.

there are plenty.. but honestly man.. i know you're car isnt going 120mph in the 1/4 mile.. and i dont think you have the proper setup to see 120mph on a road course.. other than that i'm not sure where you'd get up over that other than the highway.. hit up 85.. give her hell

edit: also remember that just cuz youre spedo SAYS you're doing 120.. doesnt mean thats actually how fast you're going

Says you! My car has a "Gone to Plaid" speed on the Speedo and by god it's been that fast!!! Just your car can't do "Gone to Plaid" Speed doesn't mean everyone else can't.

[Bacon]

let me know if you can find it.

[skeet]

anyone going for dan hardy?

[smoknlegend]

let me know if you can find it.

what kind of coilovers? Maybe my skunk2s could work.

[Bacon]

they are apparently ebay coil overs. they do the job til I can get my Function/Form COs.

[doc.purdy]

Function & Form FTW

[Nerdsrock22]

Purdy can I have your stock springs?

[Bacon]

It was either Function/Form or D2 COs. The Sol already has AGXs with ebay COs and it doesn't ride too bad but I want a little bit of wheel gap. Im tucking like hell in the front and scrubbing when I turn hard. Also need to get Skunk2 UCAs that I can adjust the camber with too. Once I get the suspension setup a little better, it will be motor time.

[jettanom]

can i had dat?

[Bacon]

Can you has English?

[FlipA]

Brandon, do you know a Cole Martin, drives a red VW MkII?

[Bacon]

does anyone have a stock del sol/civic cat I can borrow for emissions?

[chriskm]

It might not get there in the 1/4. But it'd reach it shortly after.
If I launch, I can hit 45-50 before I switch to 2nd gear. That's verifying with GPS. And a Dekalb cop who gave me a warning last night for launching at a light.

I was doing 100 in high-rev (6-7k rpm) 3rd gear last night. Bounced it off the 120 mark in @ 4k rpm in 4th gear which is why I'm asking for strip locations.

I'd rather do my testing in a closed course.

And my steering and suspension bits are all aftermarket and pretty new, and stiff as hell. The only thing that shifts is my hood.

I have one that you can borrow. When do you need it?

I don't know of anywhere around that you will be able to hit 120 legally. Little Talledega stock C-5's are running just over 100 (105ish) down the back stretch. And Silver Dollar there is no way you'll hit 120 and they have one of the longest shut-down stretches around. Basically your gonna need a long straight stretch somewhere and no where around here where they'll let the public in is gonna have that. Hitup I-85 between 56 and 51 late at night.


Trust me when I say this, the 160 Speedo will be more than you need.

i think it will take you longer than you think to hit 120 on a 1/4 mile track.. hell if you hit 110mph you'd be dipping into the 12's in a FWD.. I don't know exactly what you have in your car.. but I don't think its enough to hit 12's or lower. Not tryin to hate on you or anything man.. my only point is I just don't think you have the proper setup to hit 120+ on any sanctioned closed course in the area.

I'll run you. My Spoon calipers will add atleast 60whp.

[Ricer]

arent they are blue? thats an extra 65.. minimum

[Homer Simpson]

arent they are blue? thats an extra 65.. minimum

They are blue, but the letter's are white, so it loses about 5ish hp

That sounds Badass!!! Bring it to SDR on Apr 18th and I'll give you a run! You'll blow my doors off if you have it up and running by then!

let me know if you can find it.

Found it. Let me know when you want it.

[Schroeder]

On a side note, I just took the car out and the trans seemed to work just fine! Hopefully I will be taking it to work this week so I can how she acts on a long drive.

thats awesome!

I highly doubt I can go faster than 160. But I can go faster than 120.

I get a little nervous driving faster than 85 on the interstate, 'cause I'm two weeks away from a clean MVR. April 11th, my final 6 points from that wreck drop off.

That's why I'm looking for something longer than 1/4 mi. Like 1/2 mi.

I'm not arguing that your car cant go faster than 120.. you could get a minivan up that fast with enough road (and possibly a stiff tailwind.. haha).. i'm saying there isnt an easy way to find out legally. Find an even like the texas standing mile.. that might be your only shot

[Bacon]

Schroeder, let me know when you are free during the week.

Motivation, thanks for the congrats. It needs a little work like a couple of gaskets but nothing major. Runs great but the COs up front definitely need to be raised a little.
