Got pressed plates off Eire plates a few days ago think they look alot better on the Jap square plate recess

And in a quick and unexpected deal today managed to pick up an ITR Momo steering wheel:

And a set of genuine Rays black DuraNuts at a great price secondhand

24degrees mountain roads and a del sol..

Yesterday was a good day!!

Image

Image

Great day out in the car loved it through small mountain passes in Co Kerry great sound of vtec echoing off the rock faces and roof down..
Its was weeks like this that make the Del Sol really com into its own..

Have the car all pretty right now the ITR Wheels fitted and swapped out the replica gearknob for a genuine ITR one.. New BF Goodridge tires and wheels mounted up balanced and tracked the car is going great!

Well the Del Sol has put up 3000kms now and going 100% noticed a slight leak into the boot so going to remove the rear sail panels and do the drain tubes and clip seals..
Also have to fit the stickers I got from Mr Kurtz

Really mad to pick up a set of OEM fog lights to finish off the Mugen bumper but in the mean time have tracked down another EG2 minus engine and box but has some nice OEM gathers bits and spares for this will get pics when I collect it


Heres one with my EF8 today.. Really regret giving Rachel my TE37s :(

Didnt have to do much with this lately going great and trouble free 7500miles up on it and not a bit of trouble! Looking out for OEM fog lights but seem to be very hard to get!

The rocker cover on it was annoying me with the paint chipping off heres how it was:
Image

I power washed the engine bay, removed the rocker cover and repainted it in VHT crinkle black paint to give the OEM finish and cleaned up all the bay with plastic and rubber detailer turned out like new:

Image

Only other think its done lately was go to a Jap show here in Ireland here is a pic of it with a friends S2000

Image

Its got the NCT tuesday morning like the Irish MOT should pass easily enough though as everything seems good on it

Have tracked down a set of fog lights for this now so collecting them tomorrow hopefully with some other small bits too

Also had no real plan on getting this but it came up for sale local at good money so had to have it

Its a Genuine Mugen Formula Rocker Cover, the previous owner had the paint stripped off it cause it was chipping off
Image

Collected it last night and done this today using VHT Wrinkle Black paint. Its not the original colour but will do for now

Masked and preped:

And after a few coats of VHT Wrinkle Paint looks like new:

Happy to say this is still going great as a daily driver for my girlfriend done a few bits lately..

Noticed when it was after a bit of a drive the kinda sweet smell of antifreeze turns out there was a tiny crack along the top of the original rad along the line where the Honda writing is raised up on it.. Seem like a fault that just came up over time rather than damage so changed it out for a new one:

Image

While I was at it I also removed the HIDs because I always hated them they were so bright there was just a mad glare off them,

Standard V HIDs
Image

Picked up new door cards too. The ones in it had a big stupid speakers in them, I was lucky to pick up a pair of good clean ones with original tweeters complete so swapped them out heres Old V New

Image

Also picked up the rear gathers speakers and covers from the same car
Image

Also typical Del Sol life fixing leaks.. The boot was filling with water, the sail panels were off before and the sealer put around all the clips and stuff but had gone hard and cracked so chipped it all back and re applied Sikaflex so all sealed up good.. Cleared through the drains tubes too cause they were blocked completely and filled with water so a bit drier now just goning to regrease the boot seal and vaseline on the light seals and should be good again for a few years hopefully

Image

Fitted the Mugen cover too along with Spoon resevoir socks and Oil cap.. Hope to pick up Mugen strutbrace, manifold and intake soon too

Image

Here it is with the the other two CRX projects EF8 and EF6

Image


Have a set of Black S2000 seats found too so picking them up the weekend so should have them in soon after

Thanks man will be picking up a cleaner set of TE37s for it in the next week as the ones on it are a bit rough around the edges

Got to fit the OEM fogs too to the bumper sometime soon too
