RHD 98' SIR Spec Prelude<<<<< NOVA
Well ive been on Honda tech for a while but never really post, or browsed much but i started to get on it more often and check the forum out.
so heres just a short intro/show off what ive been working on for the past 2 years.
Names Tae and this car is my first car, i bought it end of 10th grade and did alot of ricer mods to it, then actually started to modd it begining of junior year when i got a somewhat a high paying job.
i took 2 years in the automotive and going to school for automotive. so the car has never been touched by others. everything was done by me or close friends.
here is a short preview of my build thread. just couple of pics to skeep through it.
but car is a 98' prelude base
the front clip i used was a 98 SIR BB8 prelude ( 4ws)
the day i bought it
went through these style/looks
and what i thought was finished
and Heres the RHD :D
Thanks to my Sponsor ELITEJDM
GOT THE FIREWALL OUT!!!!!! :D
picked up my Two tone Ap2 seats!!
did alittle Spring CLeaning,lol\
yes i know my header is still nasty looking, im planning on switching it out or maybe try to save this one
Familiar Face?

Wow that's quite a task to undertake, looks like you did some good work there. 
. Love the color choice as well. Nice to see another well done car in NOVA

This is an expensive project. I would bet it would of cost closely to $3000 to $4000. Just the right-hand conversion for itself. All the other things such as an entire engine replacement. Looking to be around another $2000.
All and all. People should be aware of how much it actually cost.
Edit: The paint job it can be a hefty $1500 to $2500.

i didnt even spend anywhere near what you posted. i only paid 800 for the front clip.
and rest was all on me and my friends.
and the paint job i spent less than 200, cause i painted it myself
Thanks!

My first car was a BB6, and seeing yours make me miss it. That interior looks amazing. Love the wheels and offset. Very nicely done

Re: RHD 98' SIR Spec Prelude<<<<< NOVA
Wow.. what kind of paint? I've been pricing stuff out and I'm not coming anywhere near 200.
Car looks great! I'm pretty sure I've seen every picture you just posted on PP, I remember when you first joined there.
