Hey. I just picked up a 96 Dohc V-TEC. I believe it is the best year and has the best engine. But she's been parked since 2002 so it definitely needs some love.

Can we get a del sol update please?

What's the bracing underneath ?

do you know how to fix it from sitting so low?

You did buy a cool car ! It's a cool car if you take anything off keep it so it can go back to original the person that's keep it original great advice if you take it off do not get rid of it put it back on ! said my son bought one for his son 👍

lsv been a things for over 20 years now bro… honda people know what it is if their real racers or have been in the community lol

I don’t like the stock exaust, I’m putting this on my list of exhausts to look at, great sound!

I love your car, I have a 93 del sol si that I love to death, I’ve always wanted one and can’t wait to do stuff to it

Now, that's a crying shame - swapping power for manual. I JUST bought a 97 sol S, 5sp that did NOT come with oem power steering. I'm getting ready to do JUST THE OPPOSITE - install oem power steering and get rid of the manual steering rack. Power steering is the only way to go.

the rod thing you talking about is completely false. I been building these engines for a while and that is far from the truth. stop spreading mis information

My friend is offering me an LS Integra B18B for like 400 bucks. Good for LS VTEC. As far as rods is concerned. I think it could handle 8000rpms. 9000 on stock bottom end is a bit too far. I have no plans on doing boost anyways. After all B series rods are more beefy than D series rods

Great video!! Thanks for sharing where you got your bracket fun. I shall tackle this very soon myself!!

Glad to see it’s not a k series 😌

Crv go brrrrr

how much does a high mileage 1995 del sol cost, excellent condition? no one ever mentions price

I’m an engine builder machinist and I cringed so hard watching this engine assembly .. 😢 so much bad habits and incorrect info

Fuck these haters bro.no drone,n its not even loud...now on the other hand,my shits loud but high comp build sl they wont step up to the plate🤣🤙🏼

Just dropped in my semi-built high comp lsvtec swap(my first Vtec swap) -My mod List- -b18b1 block(stock bore) -polished n turned b18a crank -king main bearing -high comp std type r pistons -stock ls b18a rods -ARP rodbolts -Gsr waterpump/evergreen timing belt kit -3layer MLS headgasket -high pressure ls oilpump -b16 pr3-2(maybe type r,had the green paint behind the dizzy or em1) head -new oem b16 vtec solenoid -skunk2 pro series intake -unknown skunk2 cams(idk the markings because of the cam gears were already put on when o got the head) -Skunk2 pro series adjustable cam gears -ebay lsv kit In the process of gettin it tuned very soon,cant wait to crack vtec the first time🤟🏼

i need help starting mine it just cranks 😢😢😢😢😢

Can you run stock cam gear on a stock b18a1 with b16 head and having perfect timing and performance?

So when putting the new rack in do any of the mounting bolts line up. I know I need the bracket for the one side but should the other side mount in just fine. Seems mine's not lining up could I have the wrong rack. I was told this was from a EG manual rack but it doesn't seem to be lining up the bolt holes

Mekanic

What exact setup is that on your exhaust?

Your not suppoded to use yhere lube on the bottom ofvthe headstud it can crack your block only supposed to use it if the stud holes are in thr water jacket's

30+ lbs of weight savings is nice as well. I love my manual rack in my eg sedan.

I just got a 1995 del sol. 165,000 miles. All my buddy said was Honda...I have had accord, fantastic machine. I am only 120 pounds, mu buddy 230. Say no more. At 75 with cancer my strength is minimal, I love late afternoon cruise. I am looking forward to giving it a try. Any suggestions for gas? like 87, plus, or super. I am not wealthy so it's a real luxury for me. If it starts breaking down like I've read on you tube should I go to Honda dealer? They are pricey but always did a great job. I am totally inept at automobile repairs, My buddy 's complaint seemed legit, him and wife are large individuals. He said no rust, was not cheap. I know it's best to not deal with buddies in business situations. Also it is black inside and outside. In SOFLO that can make it hotter, I hope it has AC. SOFLO you need it, gets very humid and hot. Will it be hard to sell if it breaks? My last accord got 492,000 miles and simply passed away. I bought it new from dealer. THX for advice on this venture. God Bless!DC

Ive had a stock bottom lsv reved up to 8300 rpm for 6 years n it never spun a bearing, all i did was upgrade to a type r oil n water pump, and i used to beat tf out that motor. Head was fully built to with aggresive cams. Typically if you upgrade oil n water pump youll be perfectly fine going up to 8k rpm, now once u hit around 9300 to 10 then id agree but 8 to 8500 is perfectly fine. 8500 is pushing it tho big time. I seen people with just arp rod bolts stock rods, rev up to 9k rpm no problem

Hey man did you need to swap out the u-joint?

Did you check the ring gap didn’t see or hear you mention it? And did you put the little o ring on the oil pump? 😅

About the rod thing I’ve ran my lsv for about a year now and still going strong

I've heard of people getting 400 plus hp on a b20 which has same rods as b18 non vtec. The sleeves usually crack but the rods hold up. The rod bolts usually stretch on the b18 around 350 to 400hp under boosted level. A good set of bearings is all you need and you are good to go if you are all motor. I would only go the route of rod bolts and resize for boosted power. An oil pump would be of most concern in a vtec upgrade all motor.

Which hole did you plug on the head?

Lmao how is this a rice build?

I have a 95 Del Sol. Love it! ❤

People calling this rice?? This is tasteful

No body forgot this. You simply weren't alive to know about it

do you have the build list for both bottom end and top end? I'm also interested in doing LSVtec

I have a 93 and it started having leaking issues after I took it from AZ to AK. I had a good friend of mine who is the most competent mechanic I know rebuild the power steering, but the best re-ring kit he found gave up after about a month of use. So, I am done with the leaks and am going to convert it to manual. Thank you for your video, it will be a boon to my efforts.

Just found your channel and build. For your oil leak at the head gasket, this is a common issue with ls/vtec. Speedfactory made a head gasket to correct this issue and I highly recommend it!

Nice job🔥👍💯

ICE CREAM CUZ!!!

Did you plug the head ? You have to plug the oil port on the under side of the head so it doesn’t leak oil

You do know there’s a up and down on the compression rings rite and usually the arp line goes on the washer not the thread

The wrong way to take off the main cap, and you have a shop

What size for valve adjustment intake exhaust

Hi bro may i know what kind you spray for head gasket

I love my del sol

Don’t give up bro! Love your channel, keep pushing, Honda community needs more del sol content, me being one!
