airjordan223 Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 saw it on nanceroos car and really liked it. just did a quick photoshop onto my car just to see what it would look like. just not sure about all the red or not. and dont worry about that red H on the valve cover, i sanded down all of that so its silver now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch92 Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 it doesn't look too bad. as long as you could two tone or cordinate the engine bay. Edit: I'd go with black or silver instead of red. there is just waaay to much red in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannaBstuntin Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 yea, this ties into my discussion with nancy. in your sol, it looks like there's too much red going on, but red just stands out because the only red is the body paint and the intake i'd say go with polished or silver if you can find it, or black, otherwise red is fine for 3rd choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airjordan223 Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 yeah so i did a ghetto photoshop of a black one over the existing one because the program wont save layers, but i think it looks better in black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 i think you should get it. or buy my carbing bar =). or get both and you can set it up like this... the ctr, itr, sirII, gsr strut bars can be used with carbing bars like this. looks sick. edit: does your del sol have the bolts for the strut bar or do you have to drill them out?

EH6TunerDaniel Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 It doesnt have the studs, but it should have little holes with a rubber plug in them. You just take out the rubber plug and put your own bolts through the bottom of the holes. Thats what I had to do at least. I wish I could afford your carbing bar. That thing is awesome.

CleanGSR Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I don't really like the red strut bar with the red car. I t hink a little bit of contrast is better (says the guy with the completely black car inside and out). Still.....just my thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demented6's Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Silver or black inmo. I like black the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch92 Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 the black looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS John Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 What is the carbing bar? Is it just an extra upper strut bar or does it do something else? Nancy, you should comment in my "Dream Suspension Package" thread in the del sol section. I'd be interested in your input since you seem to know a lot about chassis reinforcement.

Repsol Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 I like the two strut bars, Straight Baller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pballer2005 Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 are their any noticable differences with a strut bar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphries Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 my strut tower bar works grand! i took it off to clean underneath it and just drove without it and could feel the difference immediately. put it back on and was taking turns like a champ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repsol Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 My car lowered takes corners pretty well but there's still a tiny bit of body roll. Think a strut bar will fix it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS John Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 I'd get an anti-swy kit before strut bars, personally. But having both is betta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philyphreak2127 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 i would say go for it. black would look 100 times better on your car though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch92 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 high temp rattle can will fix your red>black problem.... and you would still have the powder coated texture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airjordan223 Posted November 30, 2007 Author Share Posted November 30, 2007 high temp rattle can will fix your red>black problem.... and you would still have the powder coated texture. are you sure? i resprayed inside the H emblem on my valve cover because it was starting to flake, and all the texture smoothed out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch92 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 it also depends on how much paint you spray. or you can buy the textured stuff i saw textured paint at walmart last night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
