Not bad. What are your wheel specs? I was gonna say something about a new car having that light on, but it makes sense seeing the wheels were changed.
I went to 10lb rims and 185 65 15 tires and it really accelerates better, less rubber band feel. |
I mostly use my stock wheels and tires on long trips so my sensors are on my aftermarket wheels . for my 2 mile commute I run 17x9 22 offset wheels I get 40 city and about 45 hwy
|
I got the first release 2010 model and with mods, cruising at 70 I average 51 a tank. I get a lot of heavy traffic too.
Hows the del sol? I saw one of those and its rather small, like an attempt at an el camino. Ive own a geo metro hatch back and going between it and the insight feels like its a stationwagon. :eek: |
Sold it a couple years ago and got a 88 civic to commute and finally decided no more clunkers and got an insight really like it and MPG's are way under rated
|
I recently sold my Del Sol and grabbed a first-gen Insight. I don't get the same adrenaline rush, driving it, but that's probably for the best.
Good looking car! |
I have my CRX for adrenaline rush but I don't drive it much I forgot to add that my insight has 2" lowering springs

Tanabe springs? I had both the df and nf and after a year the rear sagged too much. I would scrape the tow hook thingie on some driveways. :eek:
Most people say the crx is an eco car, your the first to say its a rocket.:eek: Looks like its too high off the ground to have much performance or cornering unlike the delsol. |
My crx is 200hp 13:1 CP naturally aspirated just as low as the DelSol

Even a stock B16 CRX is pretty quick. 160HP in a car that weighs in around 2000lbs was very impressive when it came out. Is that a built B18/20 or a K20?
