dennis Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 looks good! Is this tread a statement? Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 interior and engine bay shots??? Good lookn datto :cool: Quote Link to comment
Stupid_fast Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 That looks awesome! How well do the 15x8 +0's fit under the front fenders? The F series honda engines are great, one of my favorites. How are you enjoying the fuel economy of a stock 510 with double the horsepower? :D Quote Link to comment

DARIN 510 Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 How did you get those grid v s to fit. My friend was going to get them but he said they won't fit. So I'm really curious what did you do Quote Link to comment
electron_si Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 Hey man great build. I am doing one also but im in the military so mine has been but on hold for a few months waiting to go to paint. We had the motor sitting on mounts in the car and everything mocked up in the engine bay. post some engine bay shots and props on the build. hopefully mine will be up and kicking in the distant future.

DARIN 510 Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 I'm sorry I actually don't have an S2K motor in my 510 .I love the L18 with side drafts. Don't get me wrong the F20 would be nice to have and it's a high reving motor, I just love nostalgic too much. Quote Link to comment
s2k510 Posted July 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Sorry guys I've been really busy. I have bay pics , and the build pics, i'll post probably this weekend when im free. Thanks for the comment!! Quote Link to comment
DARIN 510 Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 So what about the wheel fitment ? Quote Link to comment
electron_si Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 So what about the wheel fitment ? Although he didn't specifically put it in his thread if you run 280z strut tubes up front you can run 15x8 +0 wheels. Several other people on here run the same wheels with that setup. If you run 510 tubes up front you can only get away with a 15x7 +22 Quote Link to comment
s2k510 Posted August 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 <br>So what about the wheel fitment ?<br><br><br>they fit with no rubbing but i rolled the fenders before paint.it has aftermarket coil overs in the front.there is no different tubes or nothing on the car, they will fit , and it has 15x8 0 offset with 195 50 15 tires.so the thing with the 280 strut never heard of , Quote Link to comment

electron_si Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 we have our f20c fab'd up with custom mounts and a new trans tunnel but i think the toughest part is going to be wiring for me. Im rewiring the entire car because the wiring looks like garbage and we are totally stripping it for paint anyways. I could really use some help if anyone is good at wiring, I just need to get a plan laid out so i can get started building the rest of the chassis harness. Quote Link to comment
s2k510 Posted August 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 this aint my car' s engine bay my shit looks alot nicer than this, why is this posted on my thread .... Quote Link to comment
DAT510 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 this aint my car' s engine bay my shit looks alot nicer than this, why is this posted on my thread .... Some people wanted to see a picture of the engine bay. i realize this isn't your engine bay, but i thought since people wanted to see the engine bay, i'd post a picture a F20 in a 510.
