What would you do in this position?

Say you only had enough money to do a certain amount. Would you

A) turbo

B) paint, bodywork (shaving things), i/h/e, cams, pulleys, maybe nitrous. Then depending how much $$ is left..wheels

Which would you go with? Thanks

dunno rreally, ive heard lots of people saying that the exterior mods were a waste, but then again it looks good.

I would probably go with like a S/C and bodykit and suapension. I wouldnt do all those pulleys, headers...etc. Unless you need new headers for the S/C

Thanks for the replies lol

Does anyone even make an SC for H23? That is what I originally wanted..but couldnt find someone who made one. I hear that JR is going to have an application..but I'm sure that it will not be ready for a couple more years heh.

Fast + Furious = 2*(100 shot NOS)

Power first, looks second. Turbo last

I think that I'm just going to get a street bike and not worry much about the Prelude.

Thanks everyone!

What's up Chris?

I'm looking into a bike, too. But a few of my friends that got them are scared to death of them. They freaked themselves out.

As far as H23 SCs, Good luck. I looked for one, gave up, got excited again after hearing about another one, now I want to throw my car away. Too much money to go as fast as other cars.


Jon, sell your car already so we can swap headlights, and tail lights. Any luck with your 240?

zzzzzzzzzzzz sleeper!!! I would (depending on the condition of your engine) go with the turbo or even supercharger (turbo sounds cooler!!)

it really depends what you want.. are you show or go?

Yeah I agree..it takes to much to make these cars fast. I am going to take the money that I was going to use to do the above..to buy the bike. I would like to get a new car (maybe even a truck to haul the bike around?)..but we owe to much for a trade in. I had it for sale for about 2-3 months with no biters..so I guess I will be keeping it.
