I have a 94 Prelude Vtec for sale. It is Azure Blue Green with black leather. The car is Lowered on Koni's with Neuspeed Sports, AEM pullies, Iceman intake, custom exhaust, P&P'd head with upgraded Valvetrain, Crower Stage 2 cams, Extrude Honed Intake manifold (butterflies removed), Overbored TB, RC engineering 370cc injectors, Hondata Stage 2B ECU, Neuspeed front upper strut bar, Neuspeed rear sway bar (28mm), and a few other goodies. The car has all maintenance performed regularly, oil changed every 2500 miles. Car is in excellent shape and will be an excellent vehicle to the lucky buyer. The car has 141K miles, mostly highway. Compression check is perfectly balanced and leak down check is good. I am taking serious offers over 6000. So please no low ballers. Thanks.
No, this car won't be parted out. It must be sold as is. I already sold all the turbo equipment off of it, and now it is going as is. I hate removing parts, and trying to find stock stuff to replace it with. I am selling this prelude to fund my upcoming purchase of my 350Z. I think that I am pretty much done tinkering with the Preludes. I have owned quite a few, and although they are great cars, I am going to move up to something else. I just bought an 88 Porsche 944 TurboS, so that is my new project car. if this Prelude doesn't sell in the next month or so, I am going to be selling the car to my local Carmax dealer.
yeah, Carmax will buy your car no matter what as long as the title is clean, and it's in sound mechanical shape. they have already made me an offer. if the car has too many miles for them to sell, they will turn and sell the car to a wholesaler. They then usually auction the car to the highest bidder. The car then finds its way to some private used car lot.
As for Porsche parts being too hard to find , There are a ton of website for performance parts for all the watercooled porsches 944/924/928/968. The 944 is a big item, there are all kinds of goodies on the market. They do cost more to maintain, but I doubt this car will see more than 2-3K miles a year. You can get engine packages from 290hp all the way up to over 700. Just depends on how deep your pockets are. I'm happy the way mine is.
I would send to you...It has a 9 sec. 944 on street tires, alond with the first 10 sec. HONDA...As far as CARMAX, they are whacked, they gave my friend $1850 for a 100k mile 94 civic ex 5spd with $500 body-damage needing $500 in suspension work. Let me know before you off it to CARMAX!!!
Yeah, I already have an offer from carmax, good for 30 days or 1000 miles. They offered 6000 for the car, so that's not too bad. I don't have any body damage or wear and tear items that need replacing. That's actually not too bad, considering I didn't pay that much for the car and most of the bolt ons I already had. I have an offer right now for 6600, so I'll see how that goes. What month and year is that Turbo mag with the 944?
Now that I think about it, that's a good deal. Even for $7,000 AND all the miles it has. Let me know if it never gets sold... I just might think about it. Man... I wish there was a way to take of miles
I am selling cheap, beacause of the Mileage, and also truth be told, I didn't pay that much for the car to begin with. So what ever I make over cost of the car is profit for me. Mileage really shouldn't be a deterent for people wanting to buy a car. Whether it be a Honda or a Chevy or whatever. As long as the car has been taken care of, it will last as long as any other car. This doesn't take into account wear and tear items, but most all those items on my car have been replaced.
I never dynoed this car in all motor fashion. it was actually running a turbo for about 2 months. I put on one of my custom kits, which included a garrett 60-1 BB turbo. I was running a custom program on the hondata, and 550cc injectors. I was also running stock bottom end. In that form, with only 11psi of boost I laid down 312hp at about 6900rpm and 256ft lbs at around 5900 rpm. It was a pretty good set up. the turbo gear has all been removed, and a new program has been uploaded for the Hondata. It has not been on an actual chassis dyno in this form. In my honest guess I would say that it's putting out maybe 185-190hp. But that is a guess only. It is still quicker than a stock Vtec or one with basic bolt ons.
