    Wonder if there's a Honda engineer out there somewhere watching the video screaming, jumping up and down yelling "told you we should have done it that way. that's exactly how we should have done it. it would have been so easy to do it right".

      nbookie doubt it🤣 probably on vacation in the Bahamas 🇧🇸

      They were never going to do this with the NSX and all the work they did in it. DS and CRX have been getting MR Swaps since launch of those cars. They should have been at least RW or given the Integra limited slip system.

    The dislikes for this amazing video must have been on accident? Why would ANYONE dislike this video?

    So much work to basically turn it into an MR2. Awesome build never the less.

    • @BuildThreadsNorway
      @BuildThreadsNorway  8 років тому +21

      I guess we'll have to wait and see if someone turns an MR2 into a Del Sol by moving the drivetrain to the front:')

    • @jaymills85
      @jaymills85 7 років тому +6

      WingManGT yeah but the fact that it's not an MR2 sets it apart. and parts won't be as expensive as the dying MR2..

    • @48884BB
      @48884BB 7 років тому +4

      only it looks better, it's more unique, and it has a lot more power.

    If the del sol came with a mid engine from factory I would've owned 1 in a heart beat

    • @TCreatorO
      @TCreatorO 9 місяців тому

      ​@darkrulier I already had a 1991 sw21 MR2, and I loved it, but im too tall for it, which is what has inspired me to research people building their own mid engine car, I already bought a 1993 geo prizm, im going to redesign it, and turn it into a longer mid engine car, im planning to install either a K or a J series drivetrain, depending what I get when I find the right donor, if I get a J series donor, I may put that in my element, and swap the k24 from my element into the rear of the prizm.
      I already bought most of the rearend parts I will use to redesign the body, I got a set of 2nd gen porsche cayenne headlights, but they look like they may be too big for this car, might go with aftermarket 7th gen celica headlights, we shall see 😎👍🏼

Now I want to do that to my Del Sol Race car. Congrats

    I thank God for the amazing opportunity to be one of the theorist engineers of this wonderful build.
    Top 10 builds, for shure. I argued over so many years online. over ten years or more and now look..
    First of all. A k20 MR2. and now a baby nsx....
    A mid engine CRX del sol.
    I specifically wrote the blue prints for both cars.
    As a teaser. We know that if a b series fits. A j series will also!!!
    My argument was, I can build an nsx, using a crx del sol and a few other components. Well. Here it is! #!# A baby NSX.

      @BuildThreadsNorway  8 років тому +3

      You should read this article: www.wanganwarriors.com/honda-del-sol-youre-not-expecting/ Lots of info there. On a project like this it's difficult to define when the build process starts and when it's done, and as a lot of fabrication work was done by Bennie himself, cost in time is difficult to translate into money.
