Updates:
1/ Well had this from Monday 05th July now and started already on the 'little' things :roll:
Got some nice interior mats in Black with Silver piping round them and with Prelude embossed on the passenger and drivers mats
Changed the gear knob to a Skunk2 weighted knob; standard gaitor still on but may sort that soon
Kenwood USB head-unit fitted to replace the standard Pioneer head-unit and 6 CD changer. Front and rear speakers will be changed very soon.
Removed the rear lights, cleaned all the cack out from behind them and silicone sealed the rubber on to the lights and then silicone sealted the seals around the lights to stop any further water ingress (wasnt a lot but it was there)!
New windscreen on Monday 12th July - had a stone chip that unfortunately has now turned in to a 5" crack :roll:
Went to EightSpeed on Wednesday for a 40min check over (they used to be called Unit-8). Mark said the car is in superb condition but still getting the brake lines changed to HEL braided lines. Having a de-cat fitted and standard exhaust system for now. Rear discs and pads to be removed and cleaned up; look fine but with standing for a while they've corroded a little. New clutch fluid change and brake fluid change also. New altenator, power-steering and air-con belts to be fitted
That's it for now
Will get pics up of the head-unit and interior ASAP
2/ Bumper off today; resenator removed and the washer bottle was emptied and washed out with boiling water a few times. The growth in there was disgusting! Put a tiny bit of white vinager in to sanitise the bottle and rinsed through again before being topped up with Autglym super-clear screen wash
New bosch wipers fitted too; thank god as the old ones were deed!
Tegiwa Vtec silver solanoid fitted and Tegiwa socs fitted on PAS bottle, clutch and brake fluid bottles
Car pulls and sounds better now with the resenator out :wink:
3/ Alpine 6 x 9's fitted in the rears today; sounds much better and deffo a marked improvement so may not bother with the fronts now unless I need to etc...
4/ The AEM V2 landed today from Prelude2.2 so cheers for that
Got it fitted but will get a crank case breather filter for the cam cover tomorrow and will loop the coolant pipe when I get the right diameter pipe :roll:
Ordered some clear front indicators as well and some chrome indicator bulbs. New Osram Nightbreaker headlights, main beam and some Osram 'blue' sidelight bulbs ordered. Need to get these fitted once they land so I'll be taking the bumper off to sort the condensation out in the passneger side headlight as well as fitting the new bulbs and indicators
Booked in at EightSpeed in Darwen for Monday 2nd August to get front and rear brake discs and pads changed (ADL Blueprint discs front and back / OEM rear pads and Ferodo DS2500 pads up front). HEL stainless braided brake lines, new clutch and brake fluid as well as a full oil change and HAMP filter.
Pics will come soon onced I've bought a new Digital cam; stood on my the other day :roll:
5 / Another small update:
Bumper off again today and both headlights removed; all new Osram H1 Nightbreaker bulbs fitted as well as bright, 'blue' Osram sidelights. New clear front indicators fitted with some chrome indicator bulbs; gets rid of the 'tango' look :wink:
The 3 flange nuts on the suspension towers were removed; really badly rusted so took my time in removing them and replaced with some new shiny M10 x 1.25 nuts
Crank case breather filter fitted to remove the 'botch' job I did as a temporary measure after fitting the AEM V2 :lol:
Just ordered me one of these as well; Neuspeed front upper strut brace:
Should be with me in a few weeks from the States! A much better brace for the Prelude rather then the eBay specials that look exactly the same as the Tanabe ones but at a fraction of the cost! Plus the Neuspeed brace doesnt need any modifying; just a straight fit
- Soon to be upgraded to Falken F452's
