I sent you an email on prelude gods engine

but I'll repeat. FOr the right price it's a good deal and hella fast. BUT it could not be used for tubo. it has been built as an N/A race engine. shaved head, raised compresion and cams.

PLus if you buy it you'll need everything he has on it to tune and run it right. MSD, FPR ect

BlackwidowLude · 01-08-2002, 03:03 PM

well, i was just thinkin , get that motor, and run a zex kit with no turbo. what do you think

Machine Head · 01-08-2002, 03:06 PM

that motor could def handle a 50 shot zex kit..what pirice did he give you? and what does it come with?

is this the engine you were talking about? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cg...197251&r=0&t=0

BlackwidowLude · 01-08-2002, 03:08 PM

yea, thats the engine,

he told me 2200 obo.

and i belive it comes with everything except the tranny, what do you think about it, and he will deliver it to RI.

what type of hp do you estemate prelude god's engine makes.

Machine Head · 01-08-2002, 03:14 PM

just the head shave & port and polish will have given him an xtra 40+ hp...I guessing around 210-220 hp with all the other mods.

Ide find a JDm LSD tranny too...does it come with the hpc headers?

BlackwidowLude · 01-08-2002, 03:15 PM

i'm not sure about the headders,

i'm thinking about making him an offer, i'll tell him 2000.

what do you think

Machine Head · 01-08-2002, 03:27 PM

email him and find out exactley whaat he will be selling with the engine. That car has a ton of parts needed to run properly.

If you can get the motor

with most of this included
Mugen big bore throttle body
Weapon-R throttle rotor
Custom Grind Gude Bullfrog Cams
Apexi Super-AFC
Port and Polish Head
Port matched Throttle body/Intake Manifold, Head, Exhaust
Competition Valve Job
Competition Valve Clearance and settings
Raised Compession via shaved head (10:1)
AEM adjustable sprockets
AEM racing pulleys
STR competition fuel rail
Jackson Racing fuel pressure riser
Earls fuel pressure gauge
Earls hoses and fuel line connections
Removed EGR valve (took out check engine light)
DC Sports header 4-2-1
HPC extreme heat coating grey on header
Greddy Power Extreme and 95 VTEC Cat. Conv.
ACT lightened flywheel
Centerforce Dual Friction clutch
Neuspeed quickshift
MSD 6A ignition
Blaster 2 coil
RC Engineering injectors

then you'll be all set..remember whatever he doesn't give up you'll need to buy. And that will add to your final costs. Set a limit for this swap and stick to it. You also might want to consider having your ecu reprogramed or getting a one from an h23. cuz your f22 won't cut it. You still got your ACT clutch right?

Machine Head · 01-08-2002, 03:28 PM

by the way you'll need to replace the EGR valve with the one he took out.

and whats the final price on the ZEX kit?

Machine Head · 01-08-2002, 03:35 PM

oh yeah as for the EBAY engine..

these is alot of stuff missing from that turbo setup...(fine print)

and you gotta cover shipping...the whole thing with missing parts will cost you well over 5g...it's cheaper to buy a complete JDM motor with a longer warrenty than 3 months..and buy the turbo kit new and install it yourself

BlackwidowLude · 01-08-2002, 07:09 PM

i think i'll just call topy , and see what he say's, if he can get me a jdm h22 complete with tranny like he said, for 2200 then i think i'll just do that.

what do you think,

because the motor that prelude god has has probobly been beaten on , since during racing you're on high rpm's the whole time.

lemme know what you think

Machine Head · 01-09-2002, 12:39 AM

Prelude god has def beaten on his engine..check out this link of him racing it
http://www.hondaprelude.com/events/g...sp?eventid=532

Call Topy and ask him about price and equipment. Just remember you neeeed a warenty and you want compresion tests done as well as leak down if available. and be sure it comes with everything you'll need engine, tranny, intake manifold, throttlebody, ecu, and axles if available cuz I still don't know if your axles will fit.

By the way the ECU for the JDM motor has a speed limiter on it of 113mph. If you never go that fast then it's fine if not you'll need to reprogram the ecu
