No worries. I bet ours won't be available until like next summer-ish time. Yes, the FS bung is being incorporated into the radiator.

What's next for the Sol?

Right now, I'm getting small things I need for the engine like a new intake, fuel rail, fuel lines. I want to finish my suspension upgrades too. I need strut bars, control arms, sway bar, etc.

After winter I'll be getting a new set of wheels and a k20/24 setup. I want a new set of seats too, somewhere in between all that.

Fixed my climate control finally! Had no air or heat. Ordered some stuff for a custom intake setup I'll be making.

I got an idea to try one of these on my car a couple weeks ago. Ordered this from England. You see them on some european rally cars. Gonna attach it on the bumper support somewhere and hang it out of the grill area. We'll see how it looks :P

the more I see pictures of your car, the more I like the wheel fitment. It reeeeaaally makes me wanna get a set of rims like those, I've always liked them.

The Sol's really comin along man *thumbs up*

@ post 305 by you Lew: Nice! I like them on the European racecars but we'll see how it looks on the front of the sol lol idk how I'd like it personally if it moves a lot while driving you know? I'd be worried that it rubs paint off

It'll hang out where it won't touch paint. Also, its really stiff and looks like it won't move much. we'll see

Random update: Have a new intake setup that looks much better. Used some powdercoated 3" intercooler piping. Mounted the tow strap, pics after washing the car. Waiting on some dohc i-vtec stickers too. For the winter I just plan on saving money and upgrading my stereo equipment.
