We'll start with the pictures


and im really sorry, the order is backwards, so scroll to the bottom of your page now and view upwards
















































































In almost every different "set" if you can tell of pictures theres at least one thing different. Wither it be wheels, side skirts, or just a new enviornment. Last year in July when I purchased this car it was a stock swapped h22a prelude in a 96 si chassis. Also had a f22 transmission . Over the summer me and a bunch of good friends decided to pull the motor and swap trannys and turbo it. I spent $6000 on a turbo setup, and ran into complications left and right. It took 8 months to get it running right (a differnet long story). I went in not knowing a THING about preludes, and came out where I am now. If you're wondering where that is, an example is a owner of a local race shop in my area. The main guy at the shop admitted when i first got it i didnt know anything, and said that my knowledge of preludes has exceeded very fast; moreso then most he's seen. Not saying im a god or anything, but im actually pleased with my knowledge of how a car (specifically honda) actually works. Ask me a year ago how a cam worked I'd have no idea. Pushrod? WTF?. Anyways, sorry i got off track. But after 10 months my car is finally turning around for me, and becoming what I've been dreaming in my mind all along. Its pretty much a cinderella story in my opinion

I would like to thank honda-tech and all its members who have answered all my stupid noob questions over the last year and all the support you've given.

Partially, yes, BUT. The Appearance/cosmetic forum did NOT help me a BIT getting my car to the point where it is now. Its the people who brows THIS section that have helped and guided me to making it what it is now.

This was my thanks

 

agree'd. this is fine here he had listend to what everyone said and got very technically educated by all of our inputs and knowledge and is thanking us for what his car has became because of this. nice job man looks hawt

 

Nice pics.

+2 whats the inches you dropppppeddd looks pretty sexy btw

 

Its on ground control coilovers with the eibach springs. its all the way down in the front, could go more in the rear, but no need to

 

I think it looked better with the OEM wheels...sweet car either way!

 

I have seen you on kcsr trying to sell your rex!

 

why do people keep saying it belongs in the appearance cosmetics thread?...seriously hes thanking us in the prelude thread for helping him out with his knowledge on cars and this is what it has gotten him over the time he has been here. this thread is FINE WHERE IT IS. he didn't get any help from the ricers in there...this is one clean 4g lude man ups to that

 

what are the specs on those wheels again? the ones with the low offset....

 

looks hot but lip looks kinda weird

 

was it hard to put on that type r lip? did you have to drill any holes? also what size is your tach in the driver side speaker box? looks clean

I have the same questions as thoughs above about the type r lip and what other side skirts did you have on and how did you get them on?

looking clean by the way, keep it up

 

I wish I could have bought those black wheels off of you before you sold them, I think those looked the best out of the wheels you've had thus far. Your car is going to look sick when we put those headlights on tonight, not to mention all of the other JDM goodies you got.

 

What kinda rims, in the first couple pics? looks like, inter milano's..
