cavy z24 vs Honda Del sol
Thursday, May 10, 2007 8:39 AM
i saw him at the track in muncie, IN last week and he ran a 16.1 he asked me if i wanted 2 race him next weekend i dont know if its worth it.

My cavy has cat back exhaust, no cat, no resonator, header, 4 speed auto, air intake, upper poly motor mount

The del sol has a intake header exhaust and its a 5 speed

help is needed cause i dont want to waist my time if im gonna get beat

my best run 2 dat was a 15.6

Ugh...Don't really get what your asking? Racing is racing. Just enjoy it. If the del sol wants to race you because he thinks he is fast then race him. If you can't take a loss then you need to find a new sport and not race.

The Del Sol was an odd creation. They seemed to take everything that was good about the CRX and then kill it by adding huge weight to take the roof off.

Let us know how the race goes. When is it?

Some come with B16's, and they are quick, but most come with the SOHC D16, and a real slow.

No worries...I ran a 16.8 and a 16.5, but the car was running 15.6 last year. Remove the chip (not able to do that unless <95) If you want a tune find someone close to you with HPT (make sure they know what they are doing). Should invest in a crank pulley like BIGGSZ24 stated...being Auto I don't believe an underdrive pulley is an option, but don't quote me on it. Good luck!

They come in at 2300 pounds. thats 700 pounds off....

WITH a b16a1/2 swapped in, power steering and ac removed, the car comes in at a little over 2400 pounds. Hardly a pig.

Not sure where you got that info. Curb weights ranged from between 2302 to 2522 depending on trim level and options. A far cry from 3k.
