My New Car - smith21 - 06-16-2007

well guys, if you have read some of my last post, i was lookin at getting rid of the foci..well, it's gone and this is my new ride, mind you a few little things have been done since i've picked it up and even taken these pics...the ride is now tinted and i'm working on a custom stereo set up behind the seats (going fibreglass)..but here's some pics to give you an idea what i picked up..oh! and the tail lights aren't staying! Gonna pick up some smoked ones

if your changing the tail lights go with stock as they are rare on a Del Sol suprisingly.

k series swap? What is that? :unsure:

My New Car - NOS2Go4Me - 06-17-2007

I believe the K-series is the engine in the S2000 if memory serves... H22/A is the last-gen Prelude motor and B/D-series are the more-popular Civic engines (JDM is preferred here, and B/D is DOHC/SOHC respectively).

Don't hate my semi-knowledge :P, my brother has driven Hondas since he got his license - the one that wrecked his arm. I have no choice but to learn as I attempt to keep him out of the garbage scow-class used cars from time to time.

Brian - when are you coming to the Bay again? I'll see if I can make sure we're around, we can check out each other's new rides! Failing that, I'll be in Suds for the Canada Day long weekend.

I think a K series, is the motor that is in the RSX type S and Civic Si hatch

The S2000 motor is a sideways mount so I don't think it can work for a swap

Anyways nice car and good luck

My New Car - naz - 06-17-2007

yea i was thinking rsx type s or tsx motor swap when i said k series

i haven't been keeping up on the honda boards apparently that is the 'swap of the future' (ie b series vtec swaps aren't the shizzle anymore)

Cute little car, but its not practical if it's your only car IMO...

Too many limitations due to the design, but a fun 2nd car I will readily admit ;)

^^ It is if you add pontoons and a sail! :lol:

My New Car - Flofocus - 06-19-2007

Looks to be in great shape.

Always liked those cars, but I would have gone with a CRX. I miss that car :(

Only if you want to use the car as a killing machine :lol:

(Go around the corner and take out a pedestrian with a blow to the head from the cargo! :ph34r:)
