vtecaddict's 4door del sol project
ill have some up tomorrow of the front slammed. i got sent the wrong koni shocks so i decided to hold off on putting the back lowering springs on... its raked out right now and looks quite comical...
its christmas break! so its time to start working on the beast again. i just swapped out the jdm d15b head for the z6 head that ive been building over the school year. but having an issue with the timing belt, i think the d15b head is a little taller and i stretched the belt. and i have my own garage now to do bodywork in as well! so once the timing belt is fixed, i can finally finish up the conversion and lower it... im thinking i might have to widebody it a small amount so i can get the car as low as i want it... and should i get a camber kit of leave it with some camber? as long as toe is set, camber wear isnt too noticable.
i know... its a z6 block. it has a z6 timing belt too. it was a d15b vtec head which is similar to the z6 head i believe, but might be a little taller and im thinking it could have stretched the belt.
the thread has been dead for awhile now so i figured i would give you an update. here's what she looks like now... i got the paint picked Blitz black, and i'm taking her to the shop to get the paint done! she should be pretty in a couple weeks. my friend and i are painting and doing the bodywork at his shop.


its held together quite well except for the front end (i let my girl drive it one time and she hit a concrete parking stop) which im gonna redo the bumper to add a lip and widen out the body a little bit so i can go with some wider tires.

Thanks to you I know what my next project will be haha. I want to do Del Sol front end on eg hatch... since a Del Sol is pretty much a hatch with it just cut in half lol. I LOVE th Del Sol front end, do the fog lights tinted yellow, mmmm. I'm inspired lol. Maybe next spring I'll sell my car and start that as a project...
