Got me a 5thgen! - Honda Prelude Forum

86mcss · 05-29-2009, 03:02 AM

Got me a black 5th gen 5speed like I wanted.

It came with a lot of mods already but I am going to de-mod it some since I dont like some of things that were done to it. It barely has 100k miles on it and is in overall pretty good condition. I need to get a new hood and repaint the front and rear bumper but other than that she is a beauty

Here are some poopy cell phone pics on its way to its new home...

MODS:
JDM Mugen Racing Seats*not knock offs*(for sale)
Skunk2 Cat-back exhuast
High flow catalyic converter
V2 AEM cold air intake
Sparco 4-point harnesses(sold)
Sparco roll/harness bar(for sale)
DC SPORTS Header
CCC stage 2 clutch
New rim and tires (for sale)

I want to sell the Mugen Racing seats and the sparco roll bar. The seats are brand new and sat in a hand full of times. So if anyone in California is interested in trading me their stock seats that are in good condition plus some cash for these seats you are welcome to have them.

Other than that I need an H22 block since I bought this car with a cracked block and need to fix it ASAP so if anyone has a h22 block in California I would like to purchase it for a good price.

I look forward to getting her fixed up ASAP so I can enjoy her as my new daily driver

Gratz on the purchase.

Not to be rude, but they look pretty fake to me. Don't think Mugen ever made a seat like that. But I'm not a seat expert.

Nice pick up... but ya those seats smell fishy. Is there any other mark of Mugen on the seats... back or underneath???

Tee-Dot · 05-30-2009, 10:59 PM

What kind of seatbelts are those?

Really?

I received the H22A SH block in the mail today

I also pretty much finished up with the interior of the car. And I need to buy and install a radio and figure out the wiring mess the original owner left for me.

...and now for everyone's favorite part! THE PICTURES!

The way the interior was when I received I got the car

No seatbelts? I do not know why but the original owner decided to just cut the seat belts and let them retract into the door panel...

Yay! He cut up the stock radio wiring harness and left a bunch of other wires that I have no idea where they go!

During cleanup

Interior pretty much finished, I am waiting on the front seat belts, ebrake handle, and shift knob to come in the mail. Then I will look into installing a radio.

I had to buy and install new seat belts

Tomorrow I will finish removing the engine from the car and taking it apart and and I will mic' everything so I can figure out what size bearings I am going to need. Then i will order everything monday and more than likely put the engine back into the car the following weekend and have it running

Engine is out of the car and the bottom end is rebuilt

My cousin (master tech at local honda

)

oh hai..im your new rebuilt bottom end

At this point im waiting on some parts before the engine goes back into the car. I need a new timing belt, balance shaft belt, water pump, and random gaskets. Everything should be here in the middle of the week and we might put the engine back into the car this up coming weekend or wait for the next weekend after. Either way I am more than happy with everything since I get all the parts at cost

I see you fixed the shift knob. Way to bring the car back!

*sigh* another thing to spend money on.
