Icon6 My 93 Lude project!

I'm usually a do it yourself, no help, leave me alone about the damn color kind of guy. But in this case I would like to start a history thread about my favorite of all vehicles I have owned. Previous vehicles: 82 Impala w/ 350 4-bolt main and a 400 turbo tranny and a 88 olds rear end~90 dodge shadow~86 civic~93 Chevy astro~89 teggy w/ 16v DOHC I-Vtec~93 Camry~2002 mountaineer.

I want to use this thread to get ideas and advice, not trolls. I love this site and in the coming weeks will be documenting everything as I finally put my time into this 93 Prelude potential beauty.

I bought the car with only one performance mod an that was a k&m cool air intake 'n filter. Also has a set of 17" Enkei rims.(they have 5 point stars but each is split into 2)

I have done the following in making this my substitution for my dream 95 supra N/a: rebuilt the under the hood fuse box, charcoal tailights/rear-side marker lights, charcoal front marker lights, shaved antenna mount and installed an antenna on the rear glass, one pice jdm headlights, 10k HID low and high beams, upgraded alternator to handle my sound system which will remain a secret, replaced everything in the timing belt area(belt, tensioners, tensioner bolt, cam shaft bolt and water pump) NGK plugs and wires, and Kumho Ecsta all season 205 30r17's.

This car will be my heart and soul poured out into everything I can make my own in terms I style and performance. I am in the negotiations or acquiring a red top h22 to replace the stock f22. I will update with pic as is in this point of my build. It is my dd, and will be throughout the upgrading process.

Lastly I would like to invite everyone to be a part of my build. Since I usually do what I want w/o advice and influence, I would like input and ideas from this community. Thank you all for the help I have reviewed in the past to keep my Lude on the road.

'STAY TUNED'

Nice. I have a 94 Si which also has the F22A1 I swapped out the H23 because it blew. Hopefully in December I will have enough money to buy a H series. Keep me posted on how the swap goes.

Will do.

I noticed a gap in the bulb sockets on my new headlamps. I used gasket sealer and basically 'filled' in the gaps to make them water tight. Still looks clean and if I ever need to replace the bulbs I left enough 'gunk' to be able to pull it out. So it's a clean fix. Hit a flat somehow, so I'm working on getting the tire to a pro so they can fix it. Brand new tires!!!!! Ugh anyways, more to come....
