---------Keep this CAR RELATED!-------------

I dont want pics of your pets in your backyard, house, or on your couch. MUST be next to your car, or in a shop!

Ok so I know this isnt a "prelude-tech" thread. But all I own is my Prelude and this 4th gen thread has been kinda slow as of late. Heres a few pics of my little buddy helping me with my prelude.

Anyone else have any pics of their pets and their Preludes together? Its one of my favorite things capturing my two most prized possessions in the same pic.


Every time I work on my car my dog Shadow is right next to me. If I stand up and move around to the other side. Or get a new tool he fallows me and watches, which only happens when Im working on the car. Makes me wonder what he finds so intriguing about what Im doing with it lol.

At least you can teach him to get a wrench for you, I could never do that with my cat.

Sparksman

Having him choose the right size socket might be tricky though haha. He's just an old 4wheelin' dog that used to ride around in the back of my pickup most his life. He knows a handful of tricks but nothing special.

Ive had a neighborhood cat come and chill with me a bit ago while I did a oil change one day lol. Never had one, but it might be cool.

Cats are great, The trick is to see how many full flips they can do in a row.

Looks like a (fat)black and tan Carolina dog!

My dog is always in the garage with me, and it freaks the wife out when I have coolant in the open, but she never gets near the stuff.

I am sure I have some pics of her around the car, I think I have a shot of her laying in between 2 4th gens while I was doing a clutch and tranny for a buddy the other summer,.

Heres a picture thats a couple years old now, he's my freind pitbull Kadafi, great guy reall,y very interested in everything going on around him.

Sparksman

^^^ Thats a bad *** pic yo! His eyes look crazy lol. How did you end up with one red s2k seat?


My dog? He's fat because he's 11 years old, and isnt as energetic as he once was. Now he's just an old spoiled house dog lol. His dad was pure breed lab with papers and his mom was german-shepard and akita mix.

Find them up and post em! Ya my dog never seemed too interested in coolant either, I just wouldnt leave him alone with the stuff.

he loves to drink coolant

Sparksman

^^^ he's staring down your radiator.... I think your kitty wants his coolant fix! I dont know why I laugh every time I see a cat on a leash lol? I want one of those Savanna big house cats if I ever get one later down the road.

Sweet idea for a thread man. Will post up a pick of my cat
working on my Lude when i get the time.

Sparksman

I found this one from about a year ago, dont even have those cams anymore. I was moving things around/playing with my new parts. He seen that i was more interested in the pile then him. So he thought he'd lay on top of things so i couldnt ignore him anymore lol.

Sparksman

Damn snow came quick this year.... Time to bust out the tarp.

Polished up my t2w4 euro-r trans!

What did you use exactly to polish up your euro trans? Seeing that makes me want to do it now it looks good.

Sparksman

Thanks man! I have about 10 hours into it, took most of the week a few hours a day.

I used a drill and a circular wire brush for most of it. Then I used a dremel and smaller wire wheel to clean up the spots i couldnt get with the big wheel. Other then that I repainted the tip of my fork, and that little pump/piston pusher thing the hard-line is attached to. Then I also painted the shifter-cable bracket for some contrast, and I hit the rubber bits with some Mothers Back-to-Black conditioner.

This is something I might have to do knowing that it could look like yours in the end it turned out way clean. Plus its a lot better looking then that oxidation look that all our engines have from years in the elements.

^ He has his own drawer lol

I want to do the same to the block when it shows. I figure that was about 14 years of rust, the trans has to be from 00'-02. Iron/steel rusts orange, copper rusts green like the statue of liberty, and aluminum rusts this grey color.
