SuperMegaCliff's BB6

Hey guys my name is Cliff. I just purchased a 1999 base prelude yesterday. Not my first Honda, but my first BB6!










It has 149k on the clock, but only 55k on the JDM H22 engine.
Mods:
AEM cold air intake with K&N filter
full DC exhaust (header, pipes, muffler)
Ground control coilover on KYB struts
ACT HA3-HDSS clutch (LOVE IT!)
Nitto neo gen tires
Oem lip kit
Oem fog light with yellow bulbs
Seibon carbon fiber hood
Egay projector headlights
DC short shift with some knob i hate
Redline goods shift boot, ebrake boot and arm rest cover (very nice)

First thing I plan on doing is clearing up these headlights. I'll probly end up putting some OEM one on it soon.
Im only 18 years old and taking Auto-body at a community college, so I dont have a ton of time to work on it, but there is lots id like to do. Just trying to clean it up first. The previous owner also obviously got it repainted. He said the paint job cost him over $2k, I think it looks great.
Ive only driven it a little, and so far I freakin love it!
Let me know what you guys think...

The hood is actually aligned correctly. Its the right headlight that is way outta wack. I'm gonna play with it and try to straighten it, but its Ebay so who knows

You front wheel is backwards. You'd have to get it remounted to rotate it with whichever wheel is backwards on the other side though because of your directional tires.

I also noticed that your wipers are not "parking" in the correct spot. Do they hit the cowl or the window frame when running on a wet windshield?

Overall, looks great. Those headlights really are an eyesore though. I'd just go on ebay and get some DEPO stock replacements, yours look pretty far gone. All the other ebay lights are of lesser quality.

Figured I'd update this today.

First I stripped the valve cover down and replaced that AEM intake. Thing had been painted who knows how many times and had dents. Sooo, I bought some OBX piping....



Also wet sanded and buffed the headlights at school. Looks much better. still not aligned great though. Also picked up some SH wheels for $140 with tires!





But the rear-end is still my favorite


Had a CEL for that stupid EGR. Plugs OUT


Geeeeeze so much carbon build up

And lasty, replaced Cam seal plug with Golden Eagle plug, painted VC with VHT wrinkle, and refinished the header with VHT "flame proof" ceramic header paint.




Baking in the sun. Heat helps for the wrinkle texture.




Back together!


And OF COURSE I would chip the fresh paint putting the alternator wire cover back on...

Up next... over-hauling the entire cooling system

I think you have to ask a moderator to do it. They will if you ask them nice.
